Ideal starting point for puppies 8–16 weeks and first-time puppy parents, building trust, confidence, and clear communication.

About This Class

This class is the ideal starting point for young puppies and first-time puppy parents. We focus on obedience fundamentals like name recognition, attention, basic positions, and early recall — but the real goal is building trust, confidence, and clear communication between you and your puppy. Through short, positive training sessions and simple confidence-building games, you’ll learn how to engage your puppy, guide their behavior, and set the foundation for lifelong learning.

Just as importantly, this class is about teaching you how to train your puppy. We emphasize patience, consistency, and reading your puppy’s body language, so you can create a safe, supportive learning environment at home. Newbie Puppy Training helps your pup feel confident in the world — and helps you feel confident guiding them through it.
