Our 8-Week Doodle School program works more on crate and potty training but also focuses on training your puppy for life off the Shire. We socialize your puppy and help him or her better understand the busy, loud, and exciting world around them, and how to behave in it! We work on obedience, leash walking, and simple commands; reinforcing good behavior with puppy manding. Our 8-Week Option is very limited.

Crate & Potty Training GOALS

Sleeping through the night in their crate for 6 or more hours. Goes in their crate on cue.
Potty training accidents are consistently two or fewer per week. The puppy gives a signal to ask to go out. We like to use bells on the door to gain our attention.

LEASH TRAINING

Working towards walking confidently and calmly on a leash. We use a simple slip leash.
