Personalized puppy training for puppies 8 weeks to 6 months, including potty training, biting, socialization, obedience, crate training, and real-world manners.
The first 16 weeks shape the adult dog your puppy becomes.
| Problem | What This Looks Like |
|---|---|
| Biting & Nipping | Your puppy mouths hands, clothing, or furniture during play and excitement. |
| Potty Accidents | Frequent indoor accidents despite consistent bathroom trips. |
| Jumping on People | Greeting guests or family members by jumping up. |
| Excessive Chewing | Destroying shoes, furniture, or household items. |
| Leash Pulling | Dragging you toward every distraction on walks. |
| Not Listening/Focus | Ignoring cues, especially around distractions. |
The best time to start is as early as 8 weeks old, right when your puppy comes home. Early training gives you the chance to establish household rules, communication and useful habits while your puppy is still learning how the world works.
Help your puppy understand what you expect.
Create routines around potty, crate and everyday manners.
Introduce new experiences thoughtfully and consistently.
Build an obedience foundation you can continue developing.
A quick checklist so your first session goes smoothly.
8 weeks or older — we start foundation work as soon as your puppy comes home.
In your home 30+ days — settling in first helps your puppy focus and feel secure.
First vaccines started — private in-home lessons can begin right away; group classes need a first round of shots plus Bordetella.
Eight core focus areas covered across every JPK9 puppy obedience training program.
Establish routines and reinforce appropriate bathroom habits.
Puppy crate training that builds comfort, calmness and reliable routines your dog keeps for life.
Build foundations for sit, down, stay, recall and place.
Teach your puppy to walk with better focus and control.
Structured puppy biting training that addresses nipping and mouthing before it becomes a habit.
Build positive experiences around people and environments.
Teach your puppy how to wait, settle and respond to guidance.
Create foundations for a more manageable family companion.
We talk through your puppy's specific challenges and goals before your first session, so the plan is built around your puppy from day one.
Your puppy works through the JPK9 curriculum, with sessions focused on obedience, socialization, and everyday manners.
We spend hours with you in your own neighborhood, whether Roseville, Folsom, or Sacramento, so you leave with total confidence.
