What You’ll Learn
Our Starting Steps Puppy Training Workshop covers a wide range of essential topics to set you and your puppy up for long-term success:
Understanding Puppy Behaviour
Delve into the fascinating world of your puppy’s mind. Learn what drives their behaviour, how they communicate, and what their needs are at this critical stage. Understanding these basics is the first step in building a trusting and harmonious relationship with your pup.
Socialisation and Confidence Building
Socialisation is key to raising a well-rounded dog, and the critical period for this is between 8 and 16 weeks. This workshop focuses on introducing your puppy to new environments, sounds, people, dogs, and experiences in a safe and positive way. Proper socialisation helps prevent anxiety, fear, and reactivity, giving your puppy the confidence to handle various situations throughout their life.
Essential Training Techniques
Gain hands-on experience in teaching foundational skills such as sit, stay, and recall. These fundamental commands set the stage for advanced training and help ensure that your puppy listens to you reliably. Our trainers will guide you step-by-step, making it easy to practice and reinforce these skills at home.
Problem-Solving Tips
From toilet training to managing teething and mouthing, we’ll provide practical solutions to the most common puppy challenges. You’ll learn strategies to redirect undesirable behaviours, making puppyhood less stressful and more enjoyable for everyone in your household.
Emotional Wellness
A happy, well-adjusted dog starts with emotional resilience. We’ll teach you how to nurture your puppy’s confidence, manage their stress, and create a positive environment that promotes emotional well-being. This ensures your puppy grows into a balanced adult dog that thrives in any situation.
