There is nothing like a new puppy.\u00a0 These adorable furbabies are warm, loveable, cuddly, and utterly irresistible.\u00a0 As cute as your new puppy might be, it won\u2019t be quite that cute when it starts behaving badly.\u00a0 A dog can bring incomparable joy, but this usually happens when he or she is well behaved.\u00a0 Remember, even if you think your puppy\u2019s behavior is nothing short of precious, other people might not share your opinion.\u00a0 Even when you are at home a dog needs to have good manners when it comes to having guests and let\u2019s be honest, your dog christening an indoor potty spot might not be cute at all.<\/p>\n

\"puppyIf you live in or near The Woodlamds, TX<\/a>, then you are fortunate enough to be close to the best professional puppy trainers in the area.\u00a0 Here at Puptown Houston, we offer a unique and personalized program when it comes to puppy training.\u00a0 Our trainers understand that every dog is different and has different learning styles, therefore we do not have a \u201cone size fits all\u201d approach when it comes to puppy training.\u00a0 Thanks to one of a kind method such as our doggy day camp and lodge and learn programs, you can rest assured that by leaving your precious pup in our capable hands, you will have a good canine citizen in no time at all.<\/p>\n

Puptown\u2019s puppy training specialists Woodlands<\/a> start working with dogs as young as six weeks, and all training is done off leash!\u00a0 All dogs go through an imprinting age, that is, a period that everything they learn will stay with them for the rest of their lives.\u00a0 During this time, we will teach your puppy basic obedience commands, socializations skills, good manners, house etiquette, and even offer agility training.\u00a0 Here are some additional details as to why our puppy training is so crucial to young dogs.<\/p>\n

Learning to Obey<\/h3>\n

A dog is definitely easier to have around when he or she listens to you.\u00a0 Sadly, one of the main reasons dogs, especially young dogs, end up in shelters or even left on the side of a road is because owners simple cannot handle the dog.\u00a0 This terrible problem can easily be overcome with obedience training.<\/p>\n

When a dog knows simple commands like sit, stay, heel, down, stop, and walks well on a leash, an owner will most likely be pleased with their dog\u2019s behavior therefore build a healthy relationship with their pet.\u00a0 As different breeds have different characteristics, both good and bad, Puptown will work with owners to design a customized program for each puppy.<\/p>\n

Training Owners<\/h3>\n

Our dog and puppy training<\/a> is every bit as much about training pet parents as it is training their four-legged companions!\u00a0 Training does not stop at our facility or while pooches are in the care of our staff.\u00a0 Training must also take place at home during and after a dog\u2019s time at Puptown.\u00a0 We teach and encourage people to work with their dogs for maximum results as repetition is the key to obedience skills.<\/p>\n

We also try to instill in people that they have taken on a huge emotional and financial responsibility when it comes to taking proper care of a dog.\u00a0 They require time, patience, love, discipline, and the same medical care you would give to other family members.\u00a0 We want you and your canine companion to be happy and this is a tremendous part of our training.<\/p>\n

Social Skills<\/h3>\n

\"puppyEven a dog is perfectly behaved at home, this is not a guarantee they will be so well-mannered in other places or when they come in contact with new elements.\u00a0 Puptown\u2019s unique training approach includes taking your puppy (with your permission) outside our facility and exposing the little guy\/girl to a variety of different places and situations.\u00a0 This means your pup being around other dogs, animals, people, sights, and sounds.<\/p>\n

This is an effective yet gentle form of socialization.\u00a0 It will also let our trainers find out if your dog has any fears\/phobias or behavioral issues that can also be addressed during training.\u00a0 Simply out, we want to help you make sure your puppy is ready for the \u201creal world\u201d.<\/p>\n

A dog\u2019s imprinting age is the perfect time for him\/her to learn these skills and if there is any possibility of fears or behavioral issues, it is a key time to overcome them.\u00a0 The imprinting age is also a critical time for you to bond with your puppy and start building a long, happy relationship based on love and trust.<\/p>\n

While you do need to establish yourself as the \u201cpack leader\u201d, this can easily be accomplished through positive reinforcement training and again, basing a relationship on trust.\u00a0 So if you have or will soon have a new puppy, contact Puptown Houston<\/a> today to start your new friend\u2019s exciting training journey.<\/p>\n
