Puppy Imprinting At-Home Training Program On-Line
Puppies ages 8 weeks to 16 weeks of age(Before the puppy has his last shots)
The human-dog bond starts right from puppyhood. This program is specifically designed for a puppy between 8 weeks and 16 weeks of age; the waiting time before your puppy can go out and socialize safely. It is designed to help you establish structure once you arrive home, how to start the conversation between you and your new puppy and what to do and not to do during this time.
It is a 6-week training program, broken down into two, 3-week sections plus one weekly, 30-minute call with one of our trainers. You will learn how to create your daily routine, what that routine needs to include and not include and how to start building your conversation. You will gain a good idea of how your puppy is supposed to behave during this time frame and what to do/not do and where your expectations need to be.
We will cover:
- How to start the conversation between you and your puppy
- How to establish your new routine
- Crate training
- Potty training
- Leash communication
- Engagement with your puppy, including how to play, what to play and how to stop playing
- How to praise and reinforce good behavior and correct unwanted behavior
- Name recognition
- Recall
You will learn the value of patience and how your body language and tone are the basics of your communication with your new puppy. Bonding with your dog is incredibly special. It delivers emotionally through the deep friendship that is formed. Also, physically, through the simple benefits of sharing time together, from a cuddle on the sofa to enjoying a long walk. Many of us consider our dogs as a family member and an essential part of our lives. This is such a wonderful point in time, and we are here to help you enjoy it the best you possibly can and have a well-mannered, happy pup in the end.

EPT 10-Day Training Program
Our EPT 10-Day Training Program is a unique program designed for families who want to be a part of the training process and at the same time have their dog benefit from a full day of intense immersion training. Ideally these training days are scheduled at least twice a week for maximum training benefit.
The program also includes one 30 minute one-on-one session with a trainer at drop off on Day #1 and one 30 minute session with a trainer at drop off on Day #10. There are shorter sessions each day at pick up reviewing your dog's progress and the homework for the next session.
Structured Day Training will first focus on the three basic commands; Don't Pull on My Leash, Lay Down and Come Back When You're Called. Then we will introduce higher level distractions and ranch pack walks to bomb proof the desired behavior.
We will introduce and do the initial training followed by the family continuing the training at home between program days. You will be provided with homework including a checklist and videos to help guide you through the week.
A single day in our EPT 10-Day Training Program consists of structured one-on-one training, supervised play, trail hikes and water play (warmer months only). Supervised socialization with other dogs, humans, and farm animals, on pack hikes and during daily activities. The ranch provides a host of outside stimuli and distractions enabling our trainers to identify and work out areas needing improvement. Every opportunity it a training opportunity during their full day here at the ranch.
Each pup is assigned their own kennel with private courtyard for their own peaceful space during the day.
- One-on-one structured training throughout the day
- Socialization recesses and trail walks
- Pool Time weather permitting
- Private and secure kennel with courtyard
