Two Week Program
Total for Training: $1680 Deposit: $700
Our Two Week option is perfect fit for some owners. If you are unable to get your puppy from the breeder at 8 weeks old due to scheduling conflicts, we will get your puppy started on training during that time. Two weeks is highly recommended if a puppy needs to be shipped via airline. This program will give them time to get used to an airline crate and possibly get another vaccine administered prior to their flight. For the owners that would like to do their own training, but understand that the first few weeks can be quite challenging, our two week option can be a perfect fit. Your puppy will be given a Good Start that you can build on. Puppies will be introduced to the crate. Most will be sleeping 4-5 hours at a time, some longer, without any accident. We will begin the process of potty training. Your puppy will be introduced to leash walking, name recognition, “Sit” and “down”.
Four Week Program
Total for Training: $2480 Deposit: $700
Each level of training builds on the last. Puppies that train with Prep Your Pup for four weeks have more exposure to leash work and their basic commands are more solidified. Puppies are more comfortable with the crate at this point and are typically sleeping 6-7 hours at night. They are introduced to daytime crating and can be left in their crate for 3-4 hours during the day. Potty habits are becoming more established. Negative behaviors that often start about this age, jumping and nipping, are discouraged and we focus on correcting them. Puppies are socialized with the world around them and other puppies at training.
Six Week Program
Total for training: $3450 Deposit: $700
Our six week program focuses on refining previously taught commands and introducing more advanced commands. Leash work becomes more refined. We begin allowing more supervised freedoms within our home to be able to reinforce good manners. As puppies mature and build confidence, negative behaviors can present themselves. We work continually to correct these and establish good behaviors into habits. We continue to use positive reinforcement, a consistent schedule and an appropriate environment to further potty training progress.
