Puppy Training that is Custom Adapted to Your Puppy’s Unique Needs
Starting your puppy’s training early is the key to a well-behaved and happy dog. Our tailored in-home puppy training sessions are designed to guide your puppy through the foundational skills they need to grow into a well-adjusted companion. Our expert trainers will work with you and your puppy to ensure your home is puppy-proof, while teaching essential obedience and socialization skills.
Puppies are energetic and curious, and without the right guidance, this energy can lead to unwanted behaviors like chewing, barking, or jumping. At The Art of Dog Training, we focus on channeling your puppy’s energy into positive behaviors, ensuring they develop into a happy, confident companion.
Our puppy program is mostly positive reinforcement only, we do not use electronic collars on puppies.

Basic Obedience
Our puppy training programs focus on building the foundational behaviors that every dog needs to grow into a well-mannered adult. By starting early, we set your puppy up for success, ensuring that positive behaviors are shaped and reinforced from the beginning.
