A head start that changes everything.
Instead of going home at 8 weeks, your puppy stays with us through 12 weeks to receive structured socialization, early training, and intentional preparation for real life.
We don’t just raise puppies—we prepare them.
What Your Puppy Gains
-
Confidence in new environments, sounds, and experiences
-
Early training foundations (name, recall, crate, leash awareness)
-
Calm handling and grooming tolerance
-
Strong human connection and engagement
-
Smoother transition into your home and routine
Why This Matters
The 8–12 week window is one of the most important developmental stages.
What happens here directly impacts behavior, confidence, and trainability long-term.
Puppies in this program go home:
-
More adaptable
-
Easier to train
-
More emotionally stable
What Makes This Different
This is not just “extra time.”
It’s intentional development, tailored to each puppy’s personality and pace.
Every puppy receives:
-
Individual training sessions
-
Structured environmental exposure
-
Guided confidence-building experiences
-
Early independence and home routine preparation
Transition Support for You
You don’t just get a trained puppy—you get a plan.
Includes a 1-on-1 virtual session where we:
-
Walk you through your puppy’s routine
-
Show you how to continue training
-
Set you up for a smooth first week at home
