Puppy Life Programs

Our Puppy Life programs are designed for parents who want to give the best possible start in terms of training and socialising their dogs for their first 14 months of age.

During this period, dogs go through numerous brain developmental stages that vary from exploring and familiarising themselves with the world to showing the first signs of fearful responses and going through adolescence. It can be a particularly challenging period for the dogs as well as their human parents.

The living experiences (social skills and exposure to stimuli) that they acquire at this life stage will resonate throughout the rest of your dogs' lives. Our Puppy Life programs will assist you in:

• Creating an ideal environment at home ensuring good management (e.g. toilet training, mouthing/biting inhibition etc), numerous enrichment strategies to help your dogs let all their excess energy out constructively and clear training strategies to start building good habits.
• Providing gradual & adequate exposure to various stimuli (e.g. people, sounds, surfaces, animals etc).
• Developing your dogs' social skills and response in environments with increased distractions by participating in our group classes at different life stages (Baby Puppy, Senior Puppy and Junior Class)
• Effectively addressing the challenges of each brain developmental stage by understanding what behaviours are expected and how to manage them appropriately.
• Acquiring all the necessary training tools so that you can address any behavioural challenges that might arise in your dogs' lives in the future.
