Imprinting Good Behavior ~Birth to 16 Weeks
Picking up your puppy from the breeder

Training starts the instant a new puppy is in our hands in Tribeca, New York. Once we pick the puppy from the litter, the first thing we wish to achieve is developing confidence and a bond with this new puppy. We start our relationship having fun even though we’re always teaching. Under our close guidance, we begin exposing the pup to its new world. For example, getting him or her to follow us, go up and down stairs, walk over logs, and also get relatively close to loud noises. By doing this, we are environmentally socializing your puppy to the world while at the same time reinforcing our bond. We are huge dog lovers, but still very aware in those moments it is essential to focus more on being a leader and guide as the new puppy discovers this new world without the company of its litter mates or mom.

Most important time for learning
During the first few weeks we are teaching your new puppy boundaries, trust and focus. There is no limitation as to what we will integrate into our approaches. Often we make use of certain spots or objects to create an experience for the pup. Sometimes a spur of the moment opportunity may present itself in Tribeca, New York. Our choices and imagination are limitless. Every exposure and experience builds on the previous one. Through all of this, we carefully supervise the puppy. We do not limit ourselves to rigid rules. We try to become more creative, think outside the box, and make the most of occasions that unfold before us. Those opportunities are invaluable when it comes down to teaching the pup.

Every interaction with the new puppy is a teaching moment. We like to think of it as an early investment in the life of this dog. This is the first time away from his or her littermates and staying with us in Tribeca, New York. Puppies have a small window of time during brain development when they are most impressionable. This is called the imprinting also known as the critical learning period. Puppies learn more during this time than any other period of time in their lives. The quality and quantity of what they encounter will have a massive impact on their future personalities and determine much of their “good” or “bad” behavior tendencies. During the course of the imprinting phase, every experience is critical. It is essential to build their self-confidence. The expression ‘don’t sweat the small stuff’ does not apply to their early interactions. Because puppies are taking in every experience like a sponge, we must stay very aware of all interactions and yet still have a good time with our new dog.

A Well-Mannered Pup
4 to 6 months 

A trained pup is a lot more than just obedient. Knowing how to sit, stay or walk nicely on a loose leash are necessary things to learn. Good manners, great social skills and a healthy relationship with his or her family are important. In addition, desensitization, exposure to various distractions and situations, in addition to having the flexibility to fit into a lifestyle in Tribeca, NY  is equally important.

Our focus is to raise a puppy with remarkable manners and social skills. We start by teaching obedience the day we bring them home from the breeder; which continues as we refine the dog’s behavior. The goal is to have a strong foundation by about 4 to 6 months. We practice obedience, keeping it a standard request in our day-to-day routine as well as within each new situation we expose your dog to. We go from shaping to defining commands and testing them with distractions, duration and distance. Communication is at the center of our philosophy. Being very clear and consistent is key. We limit our words when giving commands. We want your dog to understand what we want when we give them the command. When we say ‘come’ or ‘here’ we expect 100% response right away.

Proofing Behavior in a Social World in Tribeca, NY
6 months to young adult

Enter the teenage years– adolescence. This is the typical age when many dogs are re-homed or surrendered to animal shelters. The adolescent stage can find your sweet pup turning into a monster. That nice pup can be more mouthy and disobedient than you could ever think of. Many owners hope their puppy will outgrow unfavorable behaviors. Their dog is testing what is permitted and what is not. Allowing a dog to continue practicing naughty acts makes changing unwanted behavior more challenging.

Working in the Real World in Tribeca, New York
We work to stop any unwanted behavior by instilling boundaries and practicing obedience in high distraction locations. For example, we practice recalls when your dog is very distracted maybe chasing something like a squirrel. We test and proof obedience in high traffic locations, around barking dogs, near playgrounds and within public places.

As the dog goes through the adolescent stage we continue to challenge the dog by putting it in various scenarios. We imagine each situation as a picture. What does that look like to the dog? How does that picture differ from day to day or location to location. We are working to teach a dog how to adapt in every new and various environment or situation. We are raising a puppy that isn’t dependent on constant commands that dictate what he or she should and should not do. Rather, we desire a dog that can make great choices. Our main priority is to have a well-balanced dog, who will be comfortable your home.

We continue to strengthen and improve manners making good behavior a habit for the dog. Throughout this time, the dog has been staying with the dog trainer in his or her personal home. During this time, your puppy will also spend a few days and nights hanging out with another relative or close friend. Providing the dog with this chance, encourages your dog to continue to be confident and comfortable in different surroundings. This makes sure those habits and good manners will remain when he/she moves in to your house in Tribeca, NY.
