Puppy LifeSkills is a game-based foundation class for puppies (3–6 months) that builds the concepts your puppy needs for real life—focus, engagement, self-control, and optimism.

You’ll learn simple games that fit into everyday routines, so training feels doable and your puppy’s skills grow naturally as they mature. In this class you’ll work on:

Focus: name response, check-ins, and playful attention

Engagement: games that make working with you fun and easy

Self-control: pausing, waiting, and “thinking before moving”

Confidence: exploring new skills with choice and lots of wins

Handling: comfort with gear, gentle body handling, and cooperative habits

Home skills: settling, routines, and repeatable games for daily life
