Puppy 101 Training

Getting Your Puppy Off to a Great Start!!!

Welcoming a new puppy into your home is an exciting experience. However, it’s crucial to start their training immediately to ensure they grow into well-behaved and happy dogs. At Lone Star K9 Companion Training, we specialize in in-home Puppy 101 training, providing a personalized and convenient approach that sets us apart from others.

Why Start Training Immediately?

Starting training from day one establishes good habits and prevents bad behaviors from forming. Puppies are like sponges, absorbing everything around them. Early training helps in:

  • Building a Strong Foundation: Early training lays the groundwork for all future learning. It helps puppies understand what is expected of them and builds their confidence.
  • Providing Structure and Leadership: Puppies thrive on routine and clear boundaries. Early training establishes you as the leader, which is crucial for their development.
  • Preventing Behavioral Issues: Addressing behaviors like nipping, biting, and chewing early on prevents them from becoming problematic as the puppy grows.
