Puppy Works

Program Overview
Puppy Works is a Board and Train program for your puppy. This program gives your puppy a positive beginning. We build the foundation by addressing issues such as housebreaking, introducing basic obedience, manners, and socialization. We also educate you on how to manage adolescence and prevent bad habits.

Our Puppy Works participants have every opportunity to run and grow. We create an environment based on values and proper manners and reinforce inherent strengths. During the Puppy Works program participants are taken on weekly field trips to public and private training sites where they participate in obedience imprinting and socialization.

What to expect at Puppy Works

Manners:

Meet and greet people of all ages without jumping, lunging, barking, or whining for attention. Also as a part of learning manners your puppy will learn to wait at thresholds until given a release command to follow.

Confidence Building:

Puppies learn to work through various conditions that build confidence. Physical touch, games, loading/unloading from vehicles, up and down stairs. Puppies learn to be environmentally stable, to deal with adversity and are exposed to the public in a positive fear-free way.

Field Trips:

Field trips for puppies are essential in properly socializing them. Although there is a fear period that most owners are not aware of during this period you can either make or break your puppy literally. Field trips are designed at Denver Dog Works to properly introduce your puppy to new environments, places, people, and other dogs in positive controlled situations. Puppies will travel away from Denver Dog Works to train in other public and private training areas.

Crate Training:

Housebreaking your puppy and teaching him/her to go outside is critical, we build the foundation for you by crate training your puppy.

Obedience Imprinting:

Practical and necessary obedience commands for daily living.

FAQ: Board and Train

Why consider a Board and Train for your dog?

A Board and Train program is the most consistent and efficient way of training your dog. Training a dog, at any age, is time consuming and although you may be thinking, "I'll have the time," in reality there's never enough time in the day to get enough training done for your dog.
