Puppy Training in San Diego

San Diego’s Premier Puppy Training Facility, Fon’s Canines! A puppy’s first few months of life are crucial for shaping its behavior and development. While owning a new puppy is a joyous occasion you should also want to give your new dog the best start in life by specializing on puppy training. Puppy obedience training is the perfect solution to bringing up a well behaved puppy that will flourish under your care and become a beloved family member. Give your puppy the jumpstart they deserve with one of our professional puppy trainers.

Puppy Behavioral Training

Beginning training with your puppy early on sets a great foundation for a happy and safe dog and a lifelong companion. Common natural behavioral tendancies that we work on are:

  • barking too much
  • chewing on things they shouldn't
  • showing hostility
  • food aggression
  • socialization
  • basic puppy manners

With early puppy training you can concentrate on having a peaceful and stress-free bond with your pet. No more patching up your ripped sofa cushions!

Each trained puppy receives a Certificate of Obedience upon completion.

Puppy training is Fon’s Canines’ area of expertise, and our company boasts a team of highly qualified trainers. Our trainers are committed to giving the best training possible and have a deep appreciation for the special requirements and difficulties of developing a polite puppy.

When Can You Start Training a Puppy?

Here at Fon’s Canines, we know that puppyhood is a crucial time for shaping your dog into a well-mannered adult. Training your pet young lays the groundwork for a lifetime of good manners and coexistence between you and your furry buddy, much like a solid foundation is essential for a sturdy building.

Private Lessons for Puppy Training

Puppies require consistent, authoritative guidance from day one. Our personalised puppy training sessions will help you navigate the first critical weeks of puppyhood. These private sessions allow you and your dog to work together with our knowledgeable trainers in a conducive learning environment. These weekly 60-minute classes will teach you how to teach your puppy respect-based commands, encourage an obedient attitude, and build a trusting relationship with your new pet. If you want your dog to be a well-behaved, happy adult, you need to put in the time and effort during the week.

Building Control and Obedience

Gaining dominance over your dog isn’t just about teaching him to obey; it’s about laying the groundwork for a long, trusting relationship. Our methods go beyond simple instructions in order to instill fear and awe in your leadership. Because of this reverence, your dog will gladly obey your directions regardless of the environment. Gaining command will allow you to firmly address problems like jumping, running away, and other undesirable behaviours.

In-Lodge Training Packages

Our in-lodge training packages are ideal for busy pet owners with high-maintenance pets who don’t have time for private classes. Our institution offers rigorous training programmes that range from one week to three weeks in length. Each dog receives individualised attention throughout training to better meet his or her specific demands. In these specialised programmes, our trainers deal with dogs between the ages of 5 months and 2 years.

Benefits of Training Your Puppies Early

Training a dog from puppyhood onwards calls for a serious time and energy investment. If you get a dog from Fon’s Canines, he or she will already know how to sit, stay, come when called, and potentially even some more advanced tricks. This will allow you to devote more time and effort to developing a deep connection with your new friend. A well-trained puppy can immediately fit in with your family and routine. They are accustomed to city life, walking on a leash, and interacting with humans and other pets. When you buy a trained puppy from Fon’s Canines, you also get special lessons to assist you and your new pet adjust to each other. This eases the adjustment period and gives you the very best start to bonding you’re your dog faster. At our local San Diego facility our trained puppies have previously been exposed to socialization, which helps them adjust to new environments and act appropriately. Positive reinforcement puppy training, off leash training, housebreaking training and even training for proper social behavior are just some of the tasks our trainers undertake with your new puppy. The dog you bring home will have been trained and evaluated for appropriate conduct, giving you confidence and peace of mind.

Your highly trained puppy can be relied upon to adhere to set routines and respond reliably to orders. You can easily control them and make sure they’re safe because you can anticipate their activities and conduct. With our help, you’ll be able to better communicate with your puppy, leading to a closer bond and more pleasant interactions.

A Lifelong Foundation

The foundation we lay with you and your dog throughout puppy training, in-home consultations, and in-lodge instruction will last a lifetime. With the proper training and care, we think any dog can realise his or her full potential. Because of this guiding principle, we have earned CGC Evaluator certification from the American Kennel Club and are now able to provide training programmes that lay a solid groundwork for obedience and other AKC-sanctioned activities.

This is the first step in your adventure with your dog. We’re here to help you develop a bond with your dog that lasts from puppyhood into adulthood and beyond via mutual trust, appreciation, and insight. Get in touch with us right away to get more information about our training programmes and start living a better, more peaceful life with your dog.

Frequently Asked Questions

Our Testimonials

I cannot say enough good things about Fon’s Canines. They are extremely knowledgeable, and they really understand dogs of all types. They cater the training to your dogs’ specific needs, and not cookie-cutter training like other trainers out there. Ricky and Fon were extremely patient and understood our dogs way of thinking to ensure he was successful. Safety is a focus, and we had more headway in 4 private lessons than we have in the 3 years we’ve had our pup. They’ve made walks and taking our dog in public stress-free and enjoyable for the first time ever! Thank you so much for everything!

Ash Drake

I cant say enough good things about Fon’s Canines. Laurie was great at answering the multitude of our questions and getting us scheduled for our puppies training…We could immediately see the difference in Vern. He was calmer and in more control. We received nearly 1.5 hours of personalized training for us to practice and reinforce the behaviors that were taught to Vern. Much to our surprise, the last step in the process was for a trainer to come to our home 2 days later to see how things were progressing, add any other in-home training we needed and answer any questions we had.

Chris Madsen

If your looking for the best place to have your dog trained regardless of dog breed, look no further. Fon’s Canines is the best hands down! We’ve been taking our boy GATOR here for training and boarding as well since he was a puppy and we couldn’t be happier with the results and customer service they provide.

Jorge Cuevas

I would give a million stars if I could!! Fon’s Canines changed my life and my dog’s life. I came to Fon’s Canines to train my golden retriever puppy. I am not sure who learned more, the dog or me. They gave me the tools and confidence to train my dog and any other dogs I may have in the future. The things I learned here I will carry with me in all K9 experiences in the future.
