Puppy Services
Tired of being your puppy’s personal chew toy? Is your demon spawn turning every walk into a wrestling match while treating your ankles like squeaky toys? Your puppy isn’t broken – they’re just a land shark with zero impulse control and the social skills of a feral animal. We stop the nipping, end the zoomies from hell, and make walks actually walkable before these behaviors become your permanent nightmare. No more bleeding hands, destroyed living rooms, or being dragged down the street by a 20-pound maniac. Just you and your formerly unhinged puppy actually enjoying each other’s company.
Puppy Program - The Essential Training Foundation
Perfect for puppies aged 8-20 weeks! This 4-week group program gives your pup the structured socialization they need during their most important learning window. Your puppy will learn alongside other young dogs in a safe, controlled environment with professional guidance at every step.
The main objectives of our puppy kindergarten program: Your well-meaning home training isn’t preparing your puppy for the real world of other dogs, strangers, and chaotic environments. Our program establishes good habits from the beginning with your puppy to prevent aggression and reactivity problems in adulthood, teaches them the basics of obedience, develops their social skills through structured puppy interactions, and helps you avoid common mistakes that new owners make! The critical socialization window closes between 4 and 5 months – miss it, and you’ll spend years dealing with a fearful, reactive adult dog.
✓ Receive effective tools from the first week to manage frequent problems (biting, house training, jumping, learning to be alone, and barking).
✓ Upon registration, receive access $30+tx FREE! To our comprehensive Ultimate Puppy Guide. 15 pages of essential information to answer all your burning questions immediately!
✓ 10% off private consultation in case you’d like more personalized help after your class
👉4 weekly consecutive sessions of 55 minutes with experienced dog trainers

Puppy Home Start - Private Foundation Training
Stop the Puppy Problems Before They Become Adult Nightmares. Your adorable puppy is systematically destroying your life one bite, accident, and sleepless night at a time. Single training sessions might give you temporary relief, but puppies need consistent, progressive guidance during their critical development window. Miss this opportunity, and you’ll spend years undoing bad habits that could have been prevented in weeks.
Four Sessions, Maximum Impact on a Developing Brain. Our 4-session private puppy package gives you the intensive, progressive training your puppy’s rapidly developing brain actually needs. Unlike isolated sessions that don’t provide consistent practice, this comprehensive approach builds on each breakthrough during the crucial 8-16 week socialization period. You’ll save money compared to booking sessions individually while getting the consistent guidance that prevents expensive behavioral disasters down the road.

”We had an at-home training session with Riannon to help us with our 4-month old puppy. As people new to the puppy training game, we were looking for guidance on basic training tactics and how to involve our kids. Riannon quickly won over the adoration of our pup and the admiration of our kids with her skills. She answered our laundry list of questions and taught us how to begin working with our pup. We’ve been following her advice with great results. Highly recommend her services!” Jill L – Montreal
