No matter how experienced an owner you are, your puppy has never been a puppy before, it only gets one go. And it got you! Enjoy giving your puppy the best early education you can.
BrightStart Puppy Visits are designed to give your 8-12 wk puppy a risk free and enjoyable start in early learning. And to give owners the skills and understanding both of what their puppy needs to start developing into a wonderful dog, but also how to guide those puppy choices and habits. Topics from bite inhibition, safe socialisation, food manners, toilet training to loving recall, nail clipping, body handling, plus 'how to' teach good greeting manners, also any specifif needs of the family.i.e. dog/child and child/dog manners.
If your pup is booked into Toddlepaws class too we can start the KC PFA here.

My First Home Visit price is kept low to be within most budgets and to encourage people to deal with issues promptly. Often the longer a problem is left, the worse the prognosis.
Follow up One-to-ones can be wherever the problem behavour happens, helping dogs generalise commands or deal with issues, for example changing how they feel in the vet's waiting room.
