Bravo!Pup #2

Bravo!Pup offers a structured training curriculum for puppies and adult dogs, divided into three levels: Pup 1/Dog 1 (Kindergarten/Elementary), Pup 2/Dog 2 (Junior High), and Pup 3/Dog 3 (High School). These are in-person group classes, each consisting of five 50-minute weekly sessions that build on previously learned skills.

Puppy Socials are available for young puppies aged 9 to 16 weeks, providing a safe environment for socialization and play. Specialty training classes, offered both in-person and live remotely, focus on specific behavioral challenges such as shyness, fearfulness, leash reactivity, jumping, pulling, and recall. Private training provides customized one-on-one coaching, including day training options where trainers work with the dog during weekdays and conduct transfer sessions with the owner on weekends. Additionally, Bravo!Pup provides streaming online courses for self-paced learning on common issues like potty and crate training.

How to Get Started!

For group classes, clients can schedule directly through the provided booking link. For private training, the initial step is to complete the Private Training Intake Form. Following this, clients are referred to a trainer who conducts a 60-90 minute Initial Behavioral Evaluation to assess the dog’s behavior and training goals. Based on this evaluation, the trainer recommends a tailored training plan and package. Scheduling and payment for private sessions are then handled directly with the assigned trainer.
