Puppy Camp requires a five week commitment which allows room in the schedule for each dog’s individuality. External factors are taken into consideration; developmental stage, age, confidence level (fearful dogs), and where they fall within their instinctual drives. Any of these factors can change how we approach training with your puppy and your homework assignments will reflect any shifts to the schedule.
