Puppy Training Programs
At Ohio K9 Ranch, we understand that the early stages of your puppy's life are crucial for setting the foundation of their behavior and habits. Our puppy training programs are specially designed to cater to puppies aged 9 weeks to 20 weeks, providing them with the essential skills and behaviors they need to thrive.
Why Puppy Training Matters
From the moment your puppy is born, they are constantly learning and absorbing information from their surroundings. When you bring your puppy home, they are like sponges, soaking up every interaction and experience. The question is: What are you teaching your puppy? Our puppy training programs focus on instilling good habits from the start, ensuring that your puppy learns valuable skills and behaviors that will benefit them for a lifetime.
Our Training Approach
Our puppy training programs offer a holistic approach to puppy development, covering essential areas such as:
Housebreaking: Teaching your puppy appropriate bathroom habits.
-
Puppy Playbiting: Redirecting undesirable biting behavior with positive reinforcement techniques.
-
Chewing: Guiding your puppy towards appropriate chewing outlets.
-
Crate Training: Introducing your puppy to their crate as a safe and comfortable space.
-
Grooming & Handling: Familiarizing your puppy with grooming routines and handling procedures.
-
Socialization: Exposing your puppy to various environments, people, and animals to promote healthy social skills.
Positive Reinforcement Training
We believe in the power of positive reinforcement training to teach your puppy essential commands and behaviors. Through reward-based methods, your puppy will learn commands such as name recognition, yes, no, off, leave-it, sit, down, stay, and place, as well as leash manners and impulse control.
Enriching Environment
During your puppy's stay at Ohio K9 Ranch, they will have access to enriching activities and environments designed to promote mental stimulation and physical development. From climbing structures to confidence-building exercises, your puppy will learn to navigate new challenges with confidence and trust.
Transparent Progress Tracking
We understand the importance of keeping you involved in your puppy's training journey. That's why we provide daily learning videos that showcase your puppy's progress and achievements. You'll have the opportunity to witness firsthand how your puppy is developing and growing, with the option to download the videos for future reference.
In-Home Lessons and Follow-Up Support
To ensure a seamless transition into your home environment, we offer in-home lessons where we guide you through the techniques and strategies used during your puppy's training. Additionally, depending on the length of your puppy's stay, we provide free follow-up lessons to address any ongoing training needs and support your puppy's continued growth and development.
