FAQ's

Q: At what age should you start training a puppy? 

 

A:  It's recommended to start training a puppy as early as 8 weeks old. This is because puppies have a critical socialization period between 3 and 14 weeks of age when they are most receptive to learning. Early training helps establish good behaviors, promotes socialization, and sets the foundation for a well-behaved adult dog. However, it's never too late to start training, and even older puppies can benefit from proper guidance and training techniques. We offer puppy obedience classes and puppy socials at our indoor facility in San Jose, CA. We welcome the family to come and learn how to  positively communicate and train your puppy.

Q: What is basic training for puppies?

 

A: Basic training for puppies typically includes essential commands and behaviors that lay the foundation for good manners and obedience. This includes teaching commands like sit, wait, come, down, and walking on a leash without pulling. House training, crate training, and socialization with people and other dogs are also important components of basic puppy training. Positive reinforcement techniques, such as rewards and praise, are commonly used to encourage desired behaviors and build a positive learning experience for the puppy.
