She understands the basics and now I know HOW to train her on new things...
"Lizzy was and still is an extremely strong willed and active puppy that needs attention and guidance.
Being my first pet, I felt like I needed an expert to assist me in making training fun and enjoyable for both Lizzy and I.
YOU DID IT! After training with you, she understands the basics and I now know HOW to train her on new things and the appropriate techniques to use to keep my puppy happy and well disciplined. She is still learning new things everyday.
Your training information continues to come in handy for the things I don't want her to learn and the things she has to know!"

Getting off on the right paw!
If you have a new puppy, the time to start training was yesterday. Don't wait until your pup develops bad habits!
If your dog is between 8 weeks and 5 months old, Distinctive Dog Training has a special program just for you. The Puppy Prep Program is designed to cover the basics of puppy training, house manners, nutrition, socialization and general basic obedience. Dogs of any age can be trained, but if you can start a puppy during these critical weeks, you'll be leaps and bounds ahead of the game when the adolescent months come along.
At about 5-6 months of age, pups become more independent - just like human teenagers. They begin to test their limits and question leadership. If you don't have a plan in effect by this time, you could be in for trouble! Dogs are most often given up during adolescence because owners simply haven't set any boundaries or done any training to establish appropriate behaviors.
