Is this your puppy?

Furst Steps is a great fit if…

You’re still picking out your puppy and want the ball rolling before they come home
Your puppy just came home and you’re figuring out what to do first
Your puppy isn’t fully vaccinated yet — we come to you, so safe socialization starts now, during the window that matters most
Potty training and those extra-mouthy teething weeks are running the house
Your home wasn’t puppy-proofed — and now you’re learning what that even means
You’ve never had a dog, and you’re starting your dog life with a puppy

Sound familiar? You’re exactly who this package was built for.

How It Works

1

Book a free intro call

We’ll talk about your puppy — or your puppy plans — and match you with the right trainer.
2
Meet your trainer for an evaluation

Your trainer meets you and your puppy in person and makes sure you’re starting in the right package. Borderline age, a more mature pup, or an experienced owner working on bigger things might point to Furry Fundamentals instead — this package is about shaping good habits from the start and setting your puppy up for success.
- Evaluations are $150
- No commitment beyond the evaluation — you decide if we’re the right fit
3
Map out your six sessions

If we’re a fit, we build your plan together — and the trainer you evaluated with is your trainer for the whole package.
- Six one-hour private sessions — weekly is the goal, and we’ll map all six out from day one
- Sessions are completed within two months of starting. Puppyhood moves fast, and this package is built for the puppy window — not adolescent issues or serious behavior concerns
- Sessions not used within the two months expire — after that, continuing is at our $85/hour rate
4
Schedule and payment

We get your sessions on the calendar and get started — the earlier in puppyhood, the better.
- Package payment is due in full before your first session
- Financing available
5
Train where your puppy is growing up

Sessions happen in your home and neighborhood — and your trainer is on retainer between sessions. Real questions get real answers, no waiting for the next class.
- Puppy socialization, done safely — even before vaccinations are finished, we build controlled, positive exposure to the sights, sounds, and experiences that shape a confident adult dog
- A full hour every session — and no, your puppy won’t work for sixty minutes straight. Puppies train in short bursts; the rest of the hour is yours: coaching, questions, and the skills you’ll use all week. Training you is training them.

Graduates of Furst Steps get first pick of our group classes — and follow-up sessions are always available at $85/hour with the trainer who already knows your dog.
