Puppy II

Puppy Training II is for puppies that have completed Puppy Training I and are under 8 months (35 weeks) of age on the first day of class. 

$249 for 5 weekly 50-minute sessions.

Puppy Training II is all about maintaining socialization and taking your pup's training to the next level with improved reliability and off-leash control, including verbal instructions and a reduced reliance on food.

Puppy II is a wonderful place to keep up your pup’s socialization so they don’t develop adolescent-onset fear or reactivity problems while you also continue advancing your pup's training skills.

In Puppy II we can show you how to phase out the need for food treats and motivate your pup so they want to listen to your instructions in any situation, even when they’re at a distance or distracted. We can also show you how to use tricks and games to make training fun and how to go from food lures, to hand signals, to verbal instructions, and how to deal with your pup when they’re not following your instructions, without getting frustrated.

Teaching your pup to respond reliably to verbal instructions, even when they are off-leash, distracted, and at a distance takes a lot of practice, which is why all SIRIUS Puppy II students get access to our enormous collection of on-demand training videos and at-home training support, making it easy for you to practice at home between classes.

Puppy Training II can be repeated if you’d like to continue leveling up your pup’s training, or if you just want to maintain their training and socialization as your pup starts confronting the challenges of adolescence.
