PUPPY TRAINING

IMG_2605.heic

Our private puppy training programs offer everything to get you and your pup started on the right paw! Our approach to puppy rearing incorporates elements of:

  • Socialization and Acclimation Training 

  • Housebreaking and Toilet Training 

  • Crate Training and Anxiety Prevention 

  • Play Biting and Inappropriate Chewing 

  • Handling Desensitization for Vet and/or Groomer 

  • Basic Obedience and Preparing for Adolescence 

​

We are happy to incorporate any specific goals and help troubleshoot problem areas as part of your training program. 

​

We encourage family members (including kids!) to take part in lessons to insure consistency within the household. 

​

We recommend 3 lessons for trouble shooting problem areas, 5 lessons for a good foundation,  8 lessons for an all-encompassing training experience and 12 lessons for all of the above, plus training in the real world!

COOPER'S MOM!

Signing up for classes with K9ology was one of the best decisions I made! I was a bit hesitant about starting my puppy in classes so young, but after 12 weeks of private training and one group class under our belt, I could not be happier with the foundation we have- worth every penny!
 
Charlotte is truly an expert and helps explain the science behind the trainings, and had helpful suggestions for every question/scenario.
