What's included

Enrichment and socialization

I prioritize socializing my puppies by implementing a variety of training methods, including Puppy Culture techniques. From day one, I focus on handling each puppy individually and providing ample one-on-one attention. I expose them to children, other pets, and introduce house and crate training before they are ready to be rehomed. My intention is to ensure that they are easily trainable and experience a seamless adjustment to their new environment. I incorporate enrichment activities such as Clicker Training, Crate Training, Leash Walking, Potty Training, Puppy Culture, and AviDog to enhance their development.
