From First Bark to Full Growth: How We Help Train Your Puppies

Puppy School Sydney

Puppy to Dog School offers a secure and engaging setting for mastering general obedience and nurturing well-adjusted dogs. Our course promotes early socialisation in a managed environment, equipping puppies with essential skills.

Specialising in obedience training for dogs, our comprehensive courses and behaviour training focus on positive reinforcement techniques. Through our expertly led puppy classes, owners learn effective strategies for dog and puppy training, ensuring a foundation of understanding and mutual respect.

In-Home Puppy Training

Our in-home dog training service provides one-on-one attention, ideal for dog owners with busy schedules looking for tailored and flexible training options outside of group classes. At Puppy to Dog School, we ensure your dog receives focused training that meets their specific needs.

Dog Training School

Continuing to socialise your dog in a controlled and appropriate environment is crucial, even as they grow older. For this reason, our Teenage and Rescue Dog class could be the perfect fit for your pet. If your teenage dog lacks previous or consistent training, they might develop new behaviours during their teenage years that could pose challenges.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q.

When should I start socialising my puppy?

A.

Puppies are naturally playful and trusting, eager to interact with all. Experts recommend early socialisation, crucial from 3 to 17 weeks, to build their confidence. This period shapes their future interactions not just with other dogs but with people and various environments.

However, balance is key, as puppies should stay safe until fully vaccinated. Early controlled socialisation ensures a well-adjusted adult dog.

Q.

My dog is not a puppy anymore, can he still be trained?

A.

The saying that you can't teach an old dog new tricks doesn't hold true when you consider the intelligence of dogs. At any age, you can train your dog, whether addressing a newly emerged behaviour issue or starting obedience training later in their life.

It’s always the right time to deepen your bond through training. Puppy to Dog School offers programs tailored for dogs of all ages and educational requirements, ensuring it's never too late for your dog to learn.

Q.

When is the right age to start training your dog?

A.

Begin training your dog as early as 8 weeks with a setup session and an in-home course, addressing initial training needs for a seamless transition into your home.

Q.

My dog is chewing everything, what should I do?

A.

Puppies chew as a way to explore their environment or because they're transitioning from puppy to adult teeth, and sometimes simply out of boredom. Pinpointing the exact reason for their chewing is crucial.

After identifying the cause, you can substitute inappropriate chewing targets, like the couch or shoes, with suitable toys or engage them in more activities to alleviate boredom. If challenges persist, consider reaching out for an in-home training session to effectively train your dog.

What people say about us

Jasna Nicolson

Puppy school was so much fun for the humans! An hour of rollicking fun interspersed with really useful take home advice from Maz on a wide range of subjects such as teaching your puppy their name, potty training, and how to recognise your dog is stressed. I’m a long time dog owner but found this really helpful.

We just finished 3 sessions with Baz. He is totally amazing. Baz is very experienced in animal behaviour and explained why dogs behave the way they do. Our puppy who is 4 months responded so we and has improved dramatically with the trainging Baz provided. Highley recommended.
