Control Unleashed: The Puppy Program is meant as “preventive medicine” for puppy raisers.
Many common behavior problems can be either prevented or minimized by starting a puppy with good foundation training from the beginning. In addition, this program provides a program that will help you create a puppy with the ability to focus on whatever you want, for as long as you want, whenever you want. “Paying attention” is its own skill set and teaching it should be separate from teaching your puppy more complex behaviors. Without attention, you won’t get as far as you want with all those other behaviors you’re going to teach because it’s likely they will fall apart in the face of distraction. So it is wise to teach the attention skill set as the “base of operations” for your puppy training.
The attention skill set includes: Discrimination skills, self-control skills, and arousal regulation skills. The concepts and suggestions in this book can also be used for rescue dogs that, like puppies, are starting out as “blank slates” as far as your training is concerned.
Minimum Pre-requisites:
Nursery School for Older Puppies is a 4-6 week program for puppies ages 6 – 8 months.
Ah Adolescence. Is the Honeymoon Over?
It’s a question that arises frequently as puppies enter adolescence (at around 7 months old).
Adolescence is a time when a puppy may need further training and impulse control – even some additional socialization to help him with impulse control, manners or confidence. This is when time spent playing and training alongside peers can help him develop more maturity and better social skills.
Nursery School for adolescent puppies emphasizes training, good manners, and calm interactions with puppies, dogs, and people.
Our curriculum for adolescent puppies is geared toward reinforcement of basic manners with higher criteria, and transformation of disruptive behaviors like; barking, jumping, pulling on the leash, not coming back when you call, and excitability. Puppies must have age appropriate vaccines including Distemper and Bordetella.
