Puppy Care (Prevention)
Providing Everything You Need
The Puppy Package
Prevent fear before it develops. Puppies are not naturally comfortable with handling, restraint, grooming tools, or prolonged physical contact. Their response to these experiences is shaped early by emotional states. Structured exposure during this time can significantly influence how a dog responds to grooming, veterinary care, and handling throughout life. The program is designed to create calm, predictable, and cooperative experiences before fear and resistance develop.
WHAT THIS PROGRAM FOCUSES ON
-
Handling tolerance
-
Cooperative care foundations
-
Grooming desensitization
-
Calm behavior during touch
-
Confidence around grooming tools and procedures
-
Emotional stability during new experiences
WHAT PUPPIES LEARN
Puppies are gradually introduced to:
-
Brushing and coat handling
-
nail and paw handling
-
body positioning and gentle maneuvering
-
sound and vibration exposure
-
table and grooming surface familiarity
-
calm recovery after mild stressors
The goal is not obedience or performance. The goal is to build tolerance, predictability and long-term stability. Request a meet for your puppy here

GROOMING AVERSION CAN BE PREVENTED
We started bringing our 2 puppies here when they were 3 months old and started with the puppy package, which was perfect for us, they introduced them to the various grooming tools. Every time we came, she would update us on their progress until we graduated to full grooming sessions. A year later, our girls are fully confident and happy to get groomed."
