Puppy Kindergarten is a SIRIUS innovation. It is a set of four classes designed to ensure that you receive urgent training at the earliest possible time. There are three elements of puppy training that must be addressed in a puppy’s first three months of life:

1) Puppies must be thoroughly, yet safely, socialized to people so that later in life, they do not become wary or fearful of children, strangers, or men.

2) Puppies must learn to be gentle with their mouths so they do not inflict serious injury on people or animals as their jaws grow substantially stronger.

3) Puppies must learn how to live in a human home so they do not damage your belongings or suffer from separation anxiety.

Though not as urgent as the above items, puppies will be introduced to basic manners and obedience commands as well. While you may have your puppy on hand for a little bit of practice and demonstration, Puppy Kindergarten is primarily a seminar-style course which provides information for you on how to set your pup up for success.

Don’t feed your puppy right before class. Instead, bring their kibble to class in a ziploc bag for use as lures and rewards while training. Also bring a few extra-tasty treats to reward your pup for their best performances. Make sure your treats are in small, bite-sized pieces that won’t fill your pup up or take long for them to eat.

Requirements: 

Age: On the start date of the class, pups must be between 8 weeks and 14 weeks old.

This Live Online class will be conducted using Zoom and will require a high-speed internet connection and a computer or mobile device.

Puppy I is so much fun and hugely educational!

In this online course taught using Zoom, we’ll teach you how to safely socialize your puppy and acclimate them to places such as the vet and groomer. Puppies will learn the building blocks of important skills including come, sit, settle down, leave it and more. You’ll learn how to address and prevent common puppy behavior and temperament problems such as puppy biting, jumping up, and pulling on leash. Classes are kept small to ensure individual attention.

Requirements: 

Age: On the start date of class, pups must be between 12-18 weeks old.

There is no prerequisite for this class, however Puppy Kindergarten is strongly recommended as a starting point for puppies under 14 weeks of age. 

If your dog is older than 18 weeks old and has not completed Puppy Training I, Basic Manners Foundations is the age-appropriate class.

Curso básico de iniciación en el que su cachorro aprenderá las habilidades primordiales para el entrenamiento de modales esenciales, y usted aprenderá cómo comunicarse de manera eficaz con su perro, para enseñarle todo tipo de comportamientos en el futuro. Esta clase es el requisito previo para la mayoría de nuestros cursos de capacitación.

  • Principios de aprendizaje y entrenamiento
  • Atención/ juego del nombre/ Contacto visual.
  • Orientación con señales manuales al azar/ Frontal/ Lateral/ Duración 
  • Tomar el collar/ te agarrè
  • Posición básica : Sentarse/ Acostarse/ Pararse – con señales manuales y señales verbales, / practicar distancia/ duracion de en cada posición / Distracciones y una sola palabra para liberar. 
Requirements: 

Las clase de nivel de entrada, “Basic Manners” (entrenamiento de conducta básica), es un requisito para todos los otros cursos de tema único. Esta clase es para cachorros de 14 semanas o más. Para cachorros de menos de 14 semanas, consultar en la clase Puppy Kindergarten.

Esta clase de Internet en vivo se llevará a cabo utilizando la aplicación Zoom y requerirá de una conexión de internet de alta velocidad y una computadora o un dispositivo móvil.

Early puppy training is as easy as it is enjoyable. Much more challenging though, is to ensure that your puppy maintains bite inhibition, remains socialized and friendly to other dogs and people, and continues to pay heed to your instructions while working through adolescence. Training focuses on proofing verbal control without the need for food lures or rewards, or any other training tools. Exercises include distance sits in play (for the home, yard, dog parks and off-leash walks), settle down, rock-solid stays, and both off-leash and on-leash walking and heeling. Puppy 2 will help you teach your adolescent pup to be calm, attentive and responsive and to respond quickly, willingly and happily, especially when distracted, off-leash, and at a distance.

Registration Fee: $200 for 5 sessions; each session is approximately 50 minutes.

Puppy Kindergarten es una innovación de SIRIUS. Es un conjunto de cuatro clases diseñadas para garantizar que reciba capacitación urgent. Hay tres elementos del entrenamiento de cachorros que deben abordarse en los primeros tres meses de vida de un cachorro: 

1) Los cachorros deben socializar, de manera segura, con las personas para que más adelante en la vida, no se vuelvan cautelosos o teman a los niños y extraños en general. 

2) Los cachorros deben aprender a ser gentiles con la boca para que no causen lesiones graves a personas o animales a medida que sus mandíbulas se fortalecen.

3) Los cachorros deben aprender a vivir en un hogar humano para no dañar sus pertenencias ni sufrir ansiedad por separación. 

 

Aunque no es tan urgente como los elementos anteriores, los cachorros también recibirán modales básicos y comandos de obediencia. 

Requirements: 

Requisitos:

No alimentes a tu cachorro justo antes de la clase. En cambio, traiga su croqueta a clase en una bolsa ziploc para usar como señuelos y recompensas durante el entrenamiento. También traiga algunos premios extra sabrosos para recompensar a su cachorro por sus mejores actuaciones. Asegúrese de que sus premios estén en trozos pequeños, del tamaño de un bocado, que no llenen a su cachorro ni que tarden mucho en comer. 

Edad: En la fecha de inicio de la clase, los cachorros deben tener entre 8 y 14 semanas de edad. 

Esta clase de Live Online se llevará a cabo utilizando Zoom y requerirá una conexión a Internet de alta velocidad y una computadora o dispositivo móvil. 

Le enseñaremos cómo socializar de manera segura a su cachorro y aclimatarse a lugares como el veterinario y el peluquero. Los cachorros aprenderán los componentes básicos de habilidades importantes que incluyen venir, sentarse, tranquilizarse, dejar y más. Aprenderá cómo identificar y prevenir el comportamiento común de los cachorros y los problemas de temperamento, como morder, saltar y tirar de la correa.

Requirements: 

Para cachorros entre 12 y 20 semanas de edad. No hay requisitos previos para esta clase, sin embargo, se recomienda encarecidamente tomar la clase de Puppy Kindergarten como punto de partida para cachorros apropiados para su edad.

Si su perro es mayor de 20 semanas y no ha completado Puppy Training 1, Basic Manners Foundations es la clase apropiada para su edad.
