Puppy CultureTM
What is Puppy Culture?
Accentually it is doggy kindergarten.
At our dog breeding facility, Puppy Culture is our standard. As a responsible breeder and owner, we take pride in raising happy and healthy puppies. Our Puppy Culture program is an innovative and evidence-based approach to early puppy development. From the moment they are born, our puppies receive individual attention and nurturing to ensure they are well-adjusted and eager to learn.
-
Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) to enhance the development of strong nervous systems.
-
Barrier Challenge to instill problem-solving ability and teach the puppies frustration tolerance.
-
Clicker training to teach the puppy how to learn, how to enjoy learning, and to seek out learning.
-
Conditioned Emotional Responses (CER) to teach positive associations with important puppy skills, such as crate training, grooming, veterinary handling, enjoying the company of humans, and having manners.
-
Habituation to the desensitization of loud noised and new experiences, such as a vacuum, lawn mower, pressure washer and roller suitcase.
-
Attention to People to teach a puppy to be to make eye contact with humans, and to use this as a communication method.
-
Puppy Parties with the grandkids to teach the puppies to engage confidently with humans and enjoy activities with humans.
-
Puppy obedience, such as sitting, walking on a leash, and waiting at doors instead of barging in or out.
