What will my dog learn in the Head Start puppy training program?

The goal of the Los Angeles puppy training classes is to teach your puppy to become well-behaved and a trusted family member. This is achieved through basic obedience training (a total of 8 commands are taught), behavioral problem solving (e.g. toilet training, digging, destructive chewing, playful biting) and socialization exercises. Most dogs train-up nicely with 5 class sessions, assuming one engages the dog in the training exercises between weekly class sessions. If additional sessions needed after you complete your initial series of six sessions (registration + 5 group classes), then you can always return for additional training classes at no extra charge.
Below is an overview of how the program is strucured and
what your puppy will be taught:
