New Puppy Head Start!

It is never too early to start training your new puppy!

Why should I train my puppy before he is 14 or 16 weeks old?

Research and  science tells us that a 7 week old dog's brain is fully functioning - that means his capacity to learn is the same as a 7 month old dog!  In fact, your new puppy is learning from day one.  What does that mean to you?  It means that the earlier you start training your new dog, the more success you will have with him with training later in life!  

Train now and save time "un-training" bad behaviors later!

In our experience, many calls we receive for "emergency training" come from owners that have a 6 month "out of control" dog.  Usually the owner will tell us that they were advised NOT to train their dog before 6 months of age.  As a result, their dog has had 6 months of "free rule" in the house and has not learned to respect the humans in the house.  In fact, the dog may have just designated himself "head of household."

That is why we developed this simple, fun, concise and affordable training program for new owners of puppies.  Most owners and veterinarians have to weigh the options of taking a less than fully vaccinated dog out into the world to attend group training sessions, versus the positive benefits of early training.  No longer will you have to make those decisions.  You can now have you and your pup trained in your home, at an affordable fee!

What is your Puppy Head Start Program?

Puppy Head Start is a 2 session training package designed to get you and your pup off on the right foot!  Each session is 1.5 hours in length.  It is full of information and fun to teach YOU how to manage your new family member.  Remember, puppies grow into adolescent dogs quickly - so book your puppy head start sessions now!  You will save money, time and frustration ( not to mention furniture, clothing and other household items!) by registering for your head start class now!

What do you teach during the two sessions?

During these sessions you can expect to learn:

  • How to teach the puppy not to bite
  • Effective housebreaking techniques
  • Keeping the pup's attention during lessons ("Look at me")
  • Stay
  • Come
  • Sit
  • "Leave it"
  • Walking on a loose leash

How much is your Puppy Head Start Program?

The Puppy Head Start Program is only $ 95.00*!  That is less than repairing furniture or replacing a good pair of shoes!  In addition, to the information packed sessions, you will also receive a 50% discount on any group training class offered by Lake Norman Dog Training! Plus you will receive a *free* potty training kit and training lead when you sign up!

* mileage fee may be charged for outlying areas.

How old does my puppy need to be? How do I enroll?

Puppies can't be too young to start training, once they are living in your home.  Puppies up to the age of 14 weeks are eligible for the Puppy Head Start Program. Of course, the earlier the better!! Don't wait until chewing on inappropriate items becomes an issue!
