Foundations First! Whether you are wanting a therapy dog, an agility champ, or just a great companion, the first schooling that you and your puppy need is a solid foundational training series such as the signature Wonder Puppy Training Series. This series consists of 3 progressive training courses - beginning, intermediate, and advanced. It's a fantastic basic series for all dogs, especially puppies in their first two years of schooling:

For best training results:
· Start training early at 8-10 weeks of age.
· Spread basic training courses across one year as your puppy develops and matures.
· After completion of each course, we recommend scheduling 1-2 private training sessions for
continued support—applying what you have learned and getting help in areas that are
challenging.
