Puppy Immersion
Raise a Puppy For Real Life.
Imagine your puppy dining with you on a restaurant patio, playing with your children in a crowded park, camping with your friends and family, relaxing beside you at your workplace, making lots of great memories – all while consistently demonstrating great manners, engagement, and excellent decision-making.
That's the freedom Puppy Immersion aims to deliver – for both you and your puppy.
Who is this puppy training program for?
Tailored specifically for puppies aged 3 to 9 months, Puppy Immersion is a 5-week Board & Train program designed to build resilience and help prevent behavioural issues from taking root during this important period of your puppy's growth and development.

What sets this program apart from typical puppy classes?
Traditional puppy classes often focus primarily on teaching a handful of commands in a controlled classroom environment. While puppies may perform well in class, many struggle to apply those skills in everyday life.
Instead of practising obedience commands during scheduled classes for a few hours a week, your puppy is immersed in ongoing learning throughout their Board & Train, developing the ability to make appropriate choices and build lasting habits in real-world settings.

What does a day of Puppy Immersion actually look like?
Every day, your puppy is thoughtfully introduced to real-world environments, people, animals, sounds, surfaces, and situations at a pace appropriate for their age and temperament.
Through carefully structured experiences, they learn not only what to do, but also how to remain calm, think clearly, and make good decisions when faced with unfamiliar or challenging situations.
By building these important life skills through daily immersion, we can reduce the likelihood of behavioural issues and help your puppy develop emotional resilience, appropriate coping strategies, and reliable habits that carry into adulthood.
What will my puppy learn during Puppy Immersion?
By the end of this program, your puppy will have the skills and confidence to:
-
Walk politely on a loose leash
-
Remain calm in new environments
-
Relax in public when asked
-
Respond reliably around everyday distractions
-
Handle grooming and veterinary visits with confidence
-
Interact politely with people and other dogs
What if new problems come up as my puppy grows up?
Because your puppy will continue to mature after returning home, unlimited private lessons are included at no additional cost to support you through each stage of their development.
Our goal is to help you raise a puppy who knows how to think, cope, and make good decisions, even when life becomes unpredictable.

Is Puppy Immersion the right fit?
Puppy Immersion is designed for puppies who are not currently experiencing significant behavioural challenges such as aggression, anxiety, or reactivity.
If your puppy is already displaying these behaviours, our Behavioural Rehabilitation program is the more appropriate starting point, as it is specifically designed to address existing behavioural concerns.
