Our Puppy Intermediate program bridges the gap between early learning and more advanced obedience, helping young dogs solidify their training and handle real-world challenges with confidence. It’s ideal for puppies who have completed pre-school or already have a basic foundation.
We reinforce core commands like sit, down, stay, come, and heel with increased duration, distance, and distractions. Puppies also learn to focus and respond reliably in busier environments and around other dogs. This stage helps turn basic obedience into dependable behavior, both on and off-leash.
Behavior Guidance and Problem Prevention:
As puppies grow, so do their energy, independence, and curiosity. We help owners navigate adolescent behavior, including testing boundaries, selective listening, and increased distractions. Structured socialization continues to play a role, helping your puppy remain confident and respectful in new situations.
Why It Matters:
The intermediate stage is a turning point in your dog’s development. With the right guidance, your puppy transitions from a playful learner to a focused companion. This program ensures you stay on track and avoid common pitfalls during the challenging juvenile phase.
Why it works
This stage is where puppies often test boundaries—and that's where consistent training pays off. Our program strengthens previous learning and introduces structure at a time when dogs need it most. By combining focused obedience, continued socialization, and impulse control, we guide your puppy through adolescence with success.
