K9 PuppySmart  “The Right Start for your Puppy”

Puppy Training

We will teach new puppy owners through our unique training program, the correct procedures in the handling, training,  rearing and socialisation of  young puppies from 8 weeks  of age. (We will interact with a pup that is younger  but a puppy should be with its mother until at least 8 weeks. Sometimes this is not possible, but remember this is a critical time for puppies to develop behaviour patterns through imprinting. In other words what happens to the now stays with them and affects their entire life

One of the most common problems we encounter is puppy nipping. Even though the pup, at this age, cannot do a lot of physical damage, the attitude that is developing towards you  other dogs is certainly undesirable
We know that puppy training is very important to the character development of your pup. ALL veterinarians will certainly agree

These lessons can be conducted at your home or our training facility or at a local vet near you.

In this program you will learn how to communicate effectively with your new pup. This crucial stage in the pup’s life needs repetitive, specific and balanced behaviour development. It is crucial that the owners are collective in their training efforts with the pup so a proper human/canine pack structure develops. We will show how to handle your puppy the right way the first time.
