PRIVATE PUPPY TRAINING
In your home
Raising a puppy is about teaching them a solid foundation of life skills and preventing problems while boosting their confidence. Learn appropriate ways to use reinforcement techniques as your puppy grows into adulthood.
Puppies grow in 3 very distinct PHASES. 180DOG offers PHASE TRAINING to address the changes as puppies grow into adulthood.
With a gentle, positive approach, puppy will learn the basic foundation skills starting at kindergarten level:
- House training
- Body Handling
- Proper, safe socialization which is crucial in early puppyhood
- Mental, physical and social enrichment and stimulation
- Name recognition
- Crate training
- Teaching alone time to avoid separation anxiety
- Focus
- Bite THIS not THAT
- Introducing leash walking skills
- Appropriate chewing and biting
- Come when called, sit, down, stay
- Learn to avoid pitfalls such as leash pulling, excessive barking, jumping, separation anxiety
See below for Phase I, 2 and 3 Puppy Training services.
(for puppies aged 8 weeks to 1 year)

“I have had the wonderful privilege to work with Gari. She was absolutely amazing in giving me directions and helping me learn what I needed to do. She had a perfect delivery of her voice and gave easy to understand instructions, how to read my dog’s responses and what to do. It turned something dramatic into something easy and worry free. I highly recommend Gari to anyone with pet issues!” – Steve and Blue, Boynton Beach, Florida
