SDG Puppy Academy
We understand that not everyone is ready to train their new puppy when they get them home. In fact, it sometimes prevents people from getting the puppy they truly desire. We decided to make the transition easier for those who want one of our puppies but do not have the time to commit to basic training. We offer an extended training option for a select number of our puppies to set a base foundation for their regular commands. This way, continued training will be much easier on the family when they get their puppies home. All our dogs are a part of our family, and our puppies in training are treated the same way. We raise them in our home as if they were one of our family pets. This makes the transition from our home to yours even easier. They won't miss out on socialization or being a part of a family. In fact, we strive to make sure socialization is a priority in all of our puppies! All of our puppies are raised with our comprehensive training program using Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), Early Scent Introduction (ESI), and the Puppy Culture training program which sets them up for success in their future training. For our puppies that continue their education in our puppy academy, we use a positive reinforcement style of training that results in confident puppies that desire to please their owners.
Basic Puppy Training (8 to 12 weeks) $1350
Our goal with basic training is to set a standard for your puppy on what behaviors are desired from them. We set the foundation for their training by daily training sessions along with weekly socialization outings. Even though this program sets a good foundation, your puppy will still need continued training at home to keep up the skills that were taught. This training program includes:
-potty training*
-crate training
-leash walking
-socialized outings
-grooming conditioning
-sitting when approached
-no jumping
-sit
-stay
-come
-down
-place
-kennel
-heel
-second vet visit and vaccinations

*Please note: It is not possible for a puppy to be 100% reliably house-trained until they are fully matured, which is approximately 6 to 8 months. However, accidents should be minimal.
