Puppies!

There’s nothing cuter or more challenging than a puppy.

From the moment you pick up your new pup they are learning. Like little sponges, they absorb everything around them. So where do you start? How do you help them grow and learn all the things they need to learn to survive and thrive?

First a puppy needs to learn socialization skills and manners when meeting new people, going new places, and discovering the world. Next a puppy needs to learn his name, basic obedience skills, potty training, and not to bite your hands with those sharp teeth.

The Comp K9 puppy classes are designed to help your pup learn basics like come, sit, and down plus to help owners dealing with house breaking, behavior challenges like nipping, barking and so much more. We’re here to help you with social skills as your pup discovers the world and all the fun things you can do together. We even have a class for teenagers! Our goal is for your puppy to not only be a good canine citizen but to help you build a strong bond so together you can take on the world.

Puppy 1 6 week class - Competition Canine aka Comp K9

OBEDIENCE BASICS for the TEENAGE DOG

This class is for the adolescents, ages 6 months to 1 year that didn't attend an early age puppy class. The goal of this class is to help puppies and their owners navigate the difficult teenage year challenges as the puppies grow, get stronger and more willful.

Class Goals are to build reliability and consistency in response to basic cues (i.e., sit, down, come, wait, walk on a loose leash) by adding duration, resistance to distractions, and prompt correct responses. We will continue to work on aspects of “living with dogs” like attention span, mild reactivity, digging, barking, and other behaviors that are not specifically task related. The main goal is to build joy for training for both handler and dog and help both the dog and handler navigate the teens successfully. The class is 6-weeks $120
