Calm & Confident Puppy Program
For puppies between 10 to 16 weeks, the program focuses on:
Confidence & Optimism around people and dogs: Giving them tools to overcome their fears, while building confidence, and optimism around novelty.
Basic Manners: Leave it, drop it, come (in the house, backyard and neighborhood walks).
Self Control: Walk on a loose-leash, greet people politely, wait at the door until asked to step out, wait in the car until asked to hop-out and more.
Settle Calmly: While I make or eat dinner at home, reply to work emails or participate in a work meeting.
Body Handling & Grooming: Teaching your dog what ears, paw, side, chin, muzzle mean. Co-operate during a veterinary exam or a grooming appointment.

What Our Clients Say
“I took several classes with D For Dogz and loved all of them. I really enjoyed that many of the classes were held in different locations around town so your pup gets to practice the skills in the real world.”
“The one thing that sets Kaajal apart from other trainers is that she uses Positive reinforcement methods and is remarkably good at training humans in how they connect with their puppy as that sets the right foundation.”
