This course begins with what 3 things to focus on in the first 3 days you get your puppy. Besides building your relationship and trust with your puppy you want to get a head start on behaviors that will make daily life for you and your puppy easier which are how to be loose in the house, house training and initial separation training. The next part of the course covers what to train in the first 6 weeks that you have your puppy. I suggest focusing on these three categories: addressing problem behaviors, mindful socialization and puppy training essentials. The puppy training essentials section goes over skills to teach puppies how to learn as well as in depth tutorials on how to train the most important behaviors that are helpful for all dogs to know. It depends on your puppy’s issues as to which you will work on more. For example, if you have a puppy that guards toys you would be working on that more than a puppy that doesn’t guard toys at all. The final part of the course covers what you should cover in the first 3 months that you have your puppy. Here I cover more training session skills and talk about how to add criteria and build on the training done in the first six weeks. This course comes with a PDF download of the written part of the course and a shorter version to refer to when training your puppy.
About your trainer Emily Larlham:
Before I was a dog trainer I was an animal care giver at a shelter where I had to look after rooms full of puppies. I learned so much from working at the shelter and I then apprenticed to mentors and learned from attending seminars and conferences around the world, which I also spoke at. At APDT Australia one of my lectures was on raising puppies. I created this course from the 20 years of experience raising 8 of my own puppies as well as helping students with their new family members.
