Puppy Training Support in Rutland County for the Earliest Weeks (Force-Free + Practical)

Private coaching for puppy parents who want to build strong foundations from the very beginning.

Bringing home a new puppy is exciting – and a lot.

The early weeks with a puppy can feel equal parts adorable and overwhelming. Biting, zoomies, sleepless nights, potty accidents, jumping, chewing, over-excitement — it’s all normal, but that doesn’t mean you have to figure it out alone.

Puppy Jumpstart is designed to help you feel confident, capable, and clear from the beginning.

🐾 Choose your path: 

Option 1: Puppy Jumpstart (Private Program) – $495

A 4-session private coaching package for puppies under 6 months.
Perfect if you want personal support and fast progress with jumping, biting, chaos at the door, and “won’t settle” evenings.

Option 2: Puppy Start Right Plus (Group + Private Support)

My structured puppy class option: group training for social learning + 2 private sessions to tailor skills to your home life.

Our puppy programs

In order to help you achieve training success, we do not offer individual training sessions for young puppies (under 6 months of age). It is not possible to teach your puppy everything they need to know in a single session. Instead, we have tailored our puppy programs to provide guidance for the most frequent puppy problems. Whether you’re looking for advice before bringing your first dog home or are a seasoned pet parent hoping to train a service dog, our puppy programs offer compassionate solutions for all of your puppy problems.

If you’re excited to get started, choose the puppy package which best suits your needs and we’ll schedule your initial meeting. If you’d like a social learning experience with other puppies, choose Puppy Start Right Plus. If you’d prefer private coaching focused on your puppy’s real-life challenges at home, choose Puppy Jumpstart.
