Did your family get a new puppy? Would you like some tips for how to best prepare your puppy to be a good member of your family?

Recently, I was featured in Parents Magazine, March 2022 edition, as an Online Educator/Dog Trainer for children. In the article I help parents recognize different ways to incorporate their children in the daily pet care and training aspect of owning a dog. 
I am a Professional Dog Trainer that works with families with new puppies on a daily basis. I would love to offer my tips and tricks to raising a well-rounded and well-behaved dog for your family.
In this Multi-Day Class, students will bring their new puppies to class (puppies must be less than 6 months old) and teach their dog new skills each week. 
This is a course designed for learners with new puppies that want to fully train their dogs. When you make training your new puppy a priority, then your puppy will grow up to be a well-behaved adult dog. In this course learners will participate in my top selling New Puppy Class, then each week they will learn how to teach their dogs 5 new tricks or obedience skills. The learner will teach their puppy a total of 23 new skills.
