From Puppy Pandemonium to Perfect Pup –Your Journey Starts Here!

Bringing a puppy home is exciting, but it can also feel like a whirlwind of challenges: constant care, sleepless nights, and unexpected behaviours that leave you questioning if you’re doing it right.

Perhaps you’re facing:

Endless biting during those evening “puppy zoomies.”
Crate-training regressions, like crying or toileting inside.
A puppy that sometimes listens but often ignores even simple cues like “sit.”

That’s where I come in. My Puppy Foundation Course is designed to support families like yours, using proven, ethical methods to tackle the trials of puppyhood.

Together, we’ll turn the chaos into confidence and the frustration into friendship.

What you’ll gain from our puppy foundation course

6 Weeks of Guided Training: Weekly 1-hour sessions tailored to you and your puppy. Plus exclusive access to our Puppy Club Facebook group so you can get support between classes.
Additional resources: Like our puppy training guidebook, eBooks, infographics. These tools make learning easier and ensure everyone is involved in your puppy’s training at home.
Small Class Sizes (4 Puppies Max): Personalised attention and plenty of time for questions so you get what YOU need from our training classes.
Proven Techniques: Ethical, science-based methods that foster learning and trust so you build an unbeatable bond from the start.
Comprehensive Curriculum: Covering all the bases including socialisation, life skills, puppy behaviours, and more. You’ll ensure your puppy’s development is well-rounded, setting them up for success as they grow.

Handle common puppy challenges with confidence

Instead of feeling overwhelmed by common puppy challenges, you’ll master the skills and mindset to turn those moments into learning opportunities, creating a stress-free training experience that strengthens your puppy’s development.

Build a strong, positive relationship with your puppy

Training is a bonding experience! By using fun, positive methods, you’ll strengthen your puppy’s trust and desire to listen, leading to a more enjoyable and harmonious life together.

Gain confidence in managing and understanding puppy behaviours

Build your toolkit with practical strategies to help you handle common puppy behaviours, reducing stress and preventing misunderstandings, so you can focus on the positive and build your puppy’s confidence.

Learn how to socialise your puppy safely

Proper socialisation is essential for a well-rounded puppy. With professional guidance, you’ll learn to safely expose your puppy to new experiences, helping them grow into a confident, well-adjusted adult dog.

Equip your puppy with essential life skills

By building life skills now, you’ll set your puppy up for success in adulthood, reducing behavioural problems and giving them the foundation they need to thrive in any situation.
