Private Training for Puppies ages 8 weeks – 4 months
Private Training for puppies is the way to go! You will receive expert guidance and unparalleled support to navigate your new puppy in the home.
Every week, your puppy enters a new developmental “chapter,” so knowing precisely what to focus on can be challenging. Besides, most puppy parents are overwhelmed by the amount of dedication their puppy needs.
The Puppy’s Private Training includes:
• 90-minute Initial Consultation: I will meet you at your home to set things up for you and your pup from the beginning. Ideally, the Initial Consultation takes place BEFORE you get your puppy, but it is not mandatory.
We will cover Prevention topics such as house training, crate training, socialization, bite inhibition, handling, and alone time.
• 8, 1 hr. Training sessions at your home, in town, or at my training hub in Tesuque are relevant to our training. The schedule of these events/locations will depend on your puppy’s age. As we work together with your puppy, we will cover the following:
- Training concepts: Basic learning theory | nothing for free | life rewards | luring | shaping | reward removal | timing | criteria | proofing/handling distraction | getting and keeping focus | rate of reinforcement | fading the lure | problem-solving at home and on the go such as anti-jumping, visitors at your home, typical household noises, etc.
- Basic Obedience: Sit | down | stay | come | go to your mat | anti-jumping| leave it | loose-leash walking.
