TRUSTED PUPPY TRAINING IN DENVER

They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. Sometimes, though, it can seem that much harder to teach anything to a new dog, especially a puppy! Having your puppy professionally trained can help the new member of your family with basic obedience skills as well as making the time spent together more pleasant, safe, and happy. At Ancillary K9, we offer highly effective puppy training classes in Denver, as well as a variety of other dog training packages for dogs of all ages.

TRAINING A NEW PUPPY

If you’ve just adopted a puppy, one of the first things to consider is which rules you’ll want to set for it and how to enforce them. You may not want your puppy getting up onto the furniture, for example, or going into certain rooms. Puppy training classes can help turn that adorable tiny terror into a dog who can obey commands and follow the house rules.

When your new puppy first comes home, that’s a perfect time to begin teaching it what behavior is or is not acceptable. Gates and other barriers can help until good behavior patterns are established. Most puppies have lots of energy and curiosity, love to explore, and will probably see every object lying on the floor as a toy. That makes early training very important if you value your shoes and other belongings!

Whether the new puppy is your household’s only pet or they are joining a family that includes other dogs and cats, effective puppy training can help everyone in the household enjoy each other’s company more.

OUR PUPPY TRAINING CLASSES - DENVER

Trying to train a puppy isn’t always the best approach. It’s likely that you lack both the time and expertise to make sure it’s done right. It’s always the best idea to to enrol your new pet in puppy training classes.

At Ancillary K9, we understand the importance of puppy training. Puppy training sets your dog up for a lifetime of good behaviour. A well-trained dog is a happy dog, and starting training young is the best way to see a well-behaved adult. At only a few months old, puppies may be more interested in playing. We teach you how to train them with love, care, and consistency.

Whether you’ve tried and failed or decided not to bother, we have the experience and knowledge to teach puppies to be obedient. Our expert dog trainers can provide tips and tricks to use at home to get puppies to listen and learn. Training classes can also be a way for puppies to have fun, get socialised, and get exercise.

TRAINING A PUPPY: REINFORCING GOOD BEHAVIOR

Even as an experienced dog owner, you may not know the best ways to train your new puppy. If you’re new to dog ownership, you may feel even more lost. We’re here to help! We train your puppy, but we also help you as the owner gain the skills and confidence you need to apply our training in the real world to see lasting results. We work to build trust between you and your puppy, and give your dog the basic knowledge it needs to grow up into a well behaved adult.

WHEN TO START PUPPY TRAINING CLASSES

What age should you start puppy training? The best time to start puppy training classes is when your puppy is a few months old. We train puppies as young as twelve weeks old, but we prefer to wait until they have been fully vaccinated for Parvovirus — usually around 16 weeks of age.

Many puppy owners may not even consider training classes until they start to notice behavioral problems, or their puppy grows big enough for its mischief-making to become a much bigger and more destructive problem. We reccommend taking proactive measures to make sure your puppy grows up to be a well trained dog. Starting puppy training young is the most reliable way to see a well-behaved adult dog.

WHY CHOOSE ANCILLARY K9’s PUPPY TRAINING PROGRAM

Professional dog training is the best way to teach your puppy the skills it needs for the rest of its life. Here’s what makes our approach unique.

WHAT IS TAUGHT DURING PUPPY TRAINING CLASSES?

In our training sessions taught here in Denver, puppies are taught to obey certain basic commands. These can include:

  • Heel

  • Sit-Stay

  • Down-Stay

  • Here/Come

  • Other Commands of Your Choice

​As soon as the dog or puppy cooperates with the given command, they’re given some kind of reward. We teach our puppies the same commands and behaviors that we would expect of an older dog, although we may choose to pace the lesson differently for a younger dog. You might be surprised at how much and how fast your new little puppy can learn! And besides learning to listen to commands, they’ll be staying active and getting exercise.

Even if you had a dog as a pet when you were younger, the puppy stage can be difficult for a lot of dog owners! With our puppy obedience training, your new pup can grow into the kind of loving, and loyal family dog you’ve always wanted.

Contact us today to sign up for our dog and puppy training classes, or to ask us any questions you may have about our programs. Convenient payment plans are available, making it easier to get your new puppy the behavioral training that will make him or her a well-behaved pet you can truly enjoy.

LEARNING HOW TO SET CLEAR BOUNDARIES FOR YOUR NEW PUPPY

Puppies that learn from an early age that there are certain rules to follow are more well-behaved, less destructive and all-around easier to live with. With our expert training methods, taught in-person here in Denver, puppies grow up learning that a particular action will result in some kind of consequence. This conditioning makes puppies much more likely to cooperate with a rule and/or punishment long after they are fully grown dogs. We teach you how to set and enforce these rules, and how to apply them at home and in the real world. Early and expert training results in an enjoyable, well-behaved dog.

Training a puppy from a young age is not only beneficial for teaching the puppy how to behave. It also allows us to bring your whole family up to speed on the best practices for interacting with and caring for a young dog. Consistency in training and rules among all family members is the key to successfully training a new puppy.
