Meet the
TEACHERS
Each of our trainers is highly qualified with years of professional experience. While they all come from various backgrounds within the pet care industry and put their own unique spin on the curriculum, what they have in common is their passion for puppies and dedication to setting them up for long-term success through foundational training.
All of our trainers use positive reinforcement / force-free methods only.
​
Matching
For our Board & Train and Boarding Programs, we pair each student with a trainer based on their size, age, training goals, and vaccination status. During these programs, students stay in their trainer's home, where they are treated like family while we work towards your training objectives. This approach allows us to maintain small class sizes and group size-appropriate classmates together, ensuring each dog receives not only the necessary training but also the personalized care and attention they deserve.
Students are matched with their teacher based on size, age, and training goals. Puppies are paired with classmates of a similar size so they can play and practice socialization safely.
Pet First-Aid & CPR Certified
All of our trainers are Pet First-Aid and CPR Certified
Positive reinforcement Only
All of our trainers use positive reinforcement only with our students. We are strong advocates for this method especially when it comes to working with puppies.
Background Checked
All of Puppy Preparatory's trainers have passed a background check.
Training in the home
All students are kept in the home and treated like family during training. We believe this is the best way to set puppies up for success post-graduation. All of our trainers are committed to this and no puppy is ever left alone overnight.
