I like that they get to know me for me here. I'm more than just a really ridiculously adorable face.

PUPPY TRAINING AT DOGTOPIA

Build good habits from the very beginning.

At Dogtopia, we believe training should mirror real life. Our program pairs one-on-one instruction from a certified trainer with supervised introductions to other dogs. Your pup builds essential skills in focused sessions, then practices them amid the distractions and social interactions of an active daycare. The result: obedience that holds up when you need it at home, on walks, and everywhere in between.

TRAINING PLAN

Our 4-week dog training plan includes three visits to Dogtopia each week, each including dedicated one-on-one sessions with our certified trainer. These sessions are balanced with supervised socialization, providing consistent opportunities for your dog to build confidence and learn appropriate social skills. By practicing these skills during group play, your dog learns how to stay focused even when their mental activity is high.

WHAT Riley Will WORK ONCertified dog trainer Riley

  • Basic obedience and everyday commands
  • Sit, Place, Down, Heel, Off, and Leave It
  • Proper greetings and reducing jumping
  • Focus and engagement around distractions
  • Impulse control and self-regulation
  • Confidence around dogs, people, sights, and sounds
  • Puppy manners and curbing unwanted behaviors.

WHY TRAINING AT DOGTOPIA IS DIFFERENT

Teaching a puppy a command in a quiet room is only the first step. Our unique program combines personalized, one-on-one training with real-world socialization. As the nation’s leading dog care provider, Dogtopia specializes in helping dogs build practical, reliable skills that translate seamlessly from our training sessions to your everyday life at home.

Riley works with your dog individually to teach the skill, then help reinforce it in our supervised daycare environment. When they’re not with her, your pup will enjoy much of their day in our supervised daycare, where our certified canine coaches reinforce commands and healthy play habits. This hybrid approach is particularly effective for curbing common behaviors like jumping and nipping, helping your dog develop the discipline needed for real-world obedience and success.

PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS

  • Puppies must be at least 16 weeks old (no maximum age; call to discuss).
  • All puppies must be fully vaccinated

GETTING STARTED

After adoption, your dog is adjusting to their new home, and this is the perfect window for developing obedience and building confidence. Dogs starting early on learn clear, consistent expectations before bad habits have a chance to become a way of life.

Ready to start your dog’s training journey? Schedule your first visit by booking a Meet & Greet online. During this session, you will tour our facility and we perform a personalized evaluation of your pup. Our team will learn about your specific training goals and gently introduce your dog to our daycare environment, ensuring they are comfortable and ready to participate in our training program, as well as any future daycare, boarding, or spa services you may need.
