Puppy Basics
4 weeks In Board Training and 3 privates.
Get your puppy’s education started off right! We start by teaching your puppy our basic system of communication. Setting them up for success in all your future training. That is followed by the learning to learn phase. We teach impulse control games and work on curbing nipping / mouthing. The foundation of basic commands with hand signals for: sit, down, come when called, go to bed, wait at doorways is learned. Puppies in this program will socialize with other puppies, appropriate adult dogs and farm animals. Your puppy will practice safe socialization while at camp with thoughtful field trips and doggie stroller usage to keep them safe. Receive a photo of your puppy Tuesday – Saturday and a weekly update each Wednesday. Complete a one on one session with your puppy week 3, when they go home, and 2-4 week after. You puppy will attend camp with 1-2 other dogs/puppies. A great start to your future training goals. Cost $4500
Puppy Plus
9 week Board and Train, 5 private lessons
We will build upon everything we do in our right start camp. This means the addition of verbal commands to all the behaviors we have started. Off-site fields trips for socialization as well as practicing commands in a variety of places are included. Leash manners (walking politely on leash) and boundary manners (not bolting out of doors) are a focus in this program. In addition, we work on bringing toys back, leave it, and manners when greeting. This camp alows for great work with distraction and a more advnced understanding of living in our human world.
All puppies will be on a solid potty schedule and most are sleeping through the night in a crate without accident. This is a great program for owners with busy schedules, who want to ensure that their puppy has a solid foundation of training and socialization. This program will take most puppies through the critical and sensitive periods of brain development (training and experiences during this period will shape who your dog is for the rest of her life).
Receive a photo of your puppy Tuesday – Saturday and a weekly update each Wednesday. Complete a one on one sessions with your puppy week 3, 4, 8 and when they go home, and 2-4 week after. You puppy will attend camp with 1-2 other dogs/puppies. Cost $8500
Puppy Works
This is our most popular program. The program starts with one of the above camps. Then when you puppy is 6-8 months old they come back to complete their off leash and advanced training. This program rewards owners that are detacated to fully training their dogs so they can be a part of their family. When owners commit to both camps they receive a large discount on their second camp Ranging from $1000 -$1500 off their second camp.
Complete Puppy
Approximately 16 weeks up to 5 private lessons
This camp is made for professionals/families that want a well-trained dog but do not have the time for the critical and early stages of socialization and training. Owners will be able to take their puppies to dog friendly place upon graduating. Typically, puppies in this program graduate around 6 – 6.5 months old. Puppies are taken to a least 4 new locations each week for socializing and training. They are introduced to swimming (when weather allows) and the treadmill so their owners have many ways to exercise them. They have reliable obedience commands, on and off-leash around other dogs and livestock. We have very limited space for this program and recommend signing up as soon as you know you are getting a puppy. Training gear is included in this camp. Cost $14,000

Medical Safety In Pupppy Training
The American Veterinary Medical Association, Veterinary Medical Society of Animal Behavior, and several other nation organizations advise dog owners to begin training as soon as their puppy comes home.
Studies have shown that a what puppies experiences in the first three months of life strongly influences what kind of companion they will grow to be and how they will react to the world. How they react to children, hats, strangers, other dogs, loud noises, and even the vacuum will be learned during this time.
Failure to properly expose young puppies to certain situations or types of people during this brief early period ( 4 to 14 weeks ) can result in the puppies being forever fearful of them as an adult. Early socialization—or the lack of it—is a vital determinant of a dog’s lifelong behaviors. Without proper socialization, it is unlikely that a pup will become the adult dog he could have been, whether as a competitor in canine sports or as a happy, well-adjusted pet. This means starting training as soon as your pup gets home and NOT waiting until 4 months and their shots are finished is CRUCIAL to your pups success. “Puppy Play School” and ” Puppy Kindergarten” classes are not training class. They focus only on free play with other random puppies and cause fear, arousal, and aggression problems in many dog when they hit adolescents. Get your puppy started right!
