Puppy Training
Puppy Pathways is your shortcut to a happy, well-mannered sidekick. From “sit” to social skills, we’ll lay the groundwork for calm walks, polite hellos, and a confident pup who loves learning as much as you love them.

For dogs under 12 monthsPuppy Pathways is here just in time to guide them through the “teenage” stage before chaos takes the wheel (because it will!). 


Together, we’ll work on the essentials: responding to their name, basic cues like sit, touch, lie down, and come. We’ll set you up with a clear potty training plan, an introduction to leash manners, and strategies for polite greetings.


We’ll also tackle bite inhibition, healthy chewing outlets, and enrichment ideas to keep your pup’s brain as busy as their paws. Socialization is woven in, helping your puppy feel confident around new sights, sounds, people, and other dogs.


Whether it’s preventing problem behaviors before they start or smoothing out the bumps you’re already facing, Puppy Pathways gives you the tools, structure, and confidence to raise a calm, happy companion — without losing your shoes, your patience, or your sense of humor.
