What is Kindergarten Puppy Training (KPT)?
KPT is the furst step in your puppy’s education. It began originally with Guide Dogs of Amercia and is now recognized by most Dog Training Professionals as a necessary and beneficial step towards building a happy and correct dog/owner relationship. It provides the new owner with the necessary skills to effectively deal with his/her untrained puppy’s behaviour. Using techniques that a child can master, the whole family becomes involved in the training program. Between the ages of 8 – 18 months, a staggering number of healthy dogs are given up to Humane Society shelters or municipal pounds. The majority of these animals had developed owner-created behaviour problems. KPT can prevent this scenario by educating both the owner and the puppy in the puppy’s early stages of development before mistakes are made. What is the training method used? A “Lure/Reward Motivational” method utilizes natural instinctive behaviours to build your puppy’s confidence and promote a happy working attitude. Usin
