Let's take a moment to discuss the various aspects of training and dive into what we have to offer for both you and your furry companion.
Are you not exactly sure on how to effectively train a puppy? That’s perfectly okay, as we will take care of the hard part for you. We proudly offer multiple different options for training, which range from basic obedience skills all the way up to in-depth house training techniques. Below, we have compiled a list of all our different training options and what each one entails to help you make an informed decision…
Puppy Kindergarten- 1 Month
This option is particularly great for those that just need a little extra assistance in getting their puppy off to a wonderful and successful start in life. It includes comprehensive crate and leash training, along with the introduction to basic manners and behaviors. This approach gives the puppy more time to comfortably adjust to the crate environment, and since he or she will be older at this stage, they will naturally be able to hold it in the crate for longer periods of time. Additionally, the puppy will receive essential vaccinations at both 9 and 12 weeks of age, plus a couple of extra de-worming treatments to ensure they are healthy. A Kindergarten level puppy will be priced at $4,000.
Puppy Grammar School- 2 Months
This training option is designed to last approximately 2 months in duration and incorporates a few simple commands as well as an introduction to the tell bell located on the door. During this time, your puppy will learn essential commands such as "sit" and "down," utilizing a combination of verbal cues, hand gestures, and tasty treats to reinforce learning. In addition, the puppy will be taught the recall command, which may sound like "here, Cooper," allowing for effective communication. Manners will also be emphasized, focusing on behaviors such as no biting, no jumping, and commands like "off," among others. It is important to note that this puppy will be no younger than 12 weeks old and might be as old as 20 weeks, depending on the specific timing of when he or she begins training. A Grammar school puppy will be priced at $6,000.
Puppy High School
Puppy High School is approximately 3 months of training. At this level we are beginning the process of house training and furthering the obedience training listed in our above training levels. This option will allow puppy to spend time in the house away from the other puppies, get used to going in/out the door, touching the tell-bell before going outside to potty, and given lots of positive reinforcement when they use the bathroom outside. After puppy has gone potty outside we will teach puppy to walk on the leash with manners (no pulling, walking at our side, not tripping us). We will also practice some simple commands and learn how to meet strangers and other dogs with manners while on the leash. A puppy at this level will have been introduced to car rides and taken to unfamiliar, public places. He/She will be used to baths, blow drying, ear cleaning, nail trimming, ect. After completion of this program puppy will be well on his/her way to being house trained, and with supervision and consistency puppy should have very few accidents. When puppy comes home to you we will send a summary of all the training we have done so you will know what to do to continue making the progress we have started. We are always available for questions you may have as your’re transitioning puppy into your home and continuing his/her training. A High School level puppy will be $8,500 total.
Associate Degree
The Associate level puppy will be an older puppy who is well on his/her way to being house trained. Everything at this level is what has already been listed above but will have been implemented for a longer period of time and will be even more in-depth. This puppy will be 5-7 months of age and will have lived exclusively in the trainer's home for at least 1 month. He/she will be spayed/neutered, groomed, taken for car rides, and taken on trips to meet strangers in new environments on a regular basis. This puppy will be ready to be a great family member with very little work on your part. There is still a transition period and we will instruct you on how best to handle the first few weeks. An Associate level puppy adoption fee will be $11,500 total.
Bachelor’s Degree
A Bachelors level puppy will be ready for its CGC (Canine Good Citizens) certification, and/or be ready to go into a therapy program. This young adult will be 7-9 months of age, spayed/neutered, and have all of the above training even more in depth and be even more house trained. A puppy at this level will have had all of his/her required vaccinations and all the age appropriate de-wormings, have had its rabies vaccine, and be used to vet visits. A Bachelor's degree puppy will be $15,000 regardless of breed.
Masters Degree
The Masters level is our highest level of training. A dog at this level will be a young adult, approximately 12-18 months of age. He/she will have had all of the Bachelor level training plus an extra month or two really working on learned skills and socialization. This level will make it very easy to complete the house training process once He/she reaches your home. He/she will be very familiar with the routine of using the tell-bell to signal their need to go potty, and will be used to using the bathroom on and off leash (only in a fenced-in yard) in a grassy area. We will have done a lot of in depth socialization and gotten puppy used to adults, children, other animals, car rides, vet visits, baths, grooming, and so much more. This dog will have been exposed to multiple different unfamiliar public situations such as dog parks, walking on the leash by road-ways, and have been in busy stores. A Masters level young adult will be $21,000 which includes the ground transport fee to your home anywhere in the U.S.
