Description

Big Puppy: Early Training for Future Giants

Big Puppy is your early-intervention training program designed just for large breed puppies. Whether it’s a Bernese, Bullmastiff, or Cane Corso, we build the structure and manners they need before power becomes a problem.

Large breed puppies grow fast, and without early guidance, that size can get ahead of their behavior. This program sets a foundation for polite, manageable behavior right from the start—so your pup grows up into the calm, focused adult they’re meant to be.

While staying in a trusted trainer’s home, your puppy will work daily on the skills they need to live peacefully and happily with your family. These include:

Potty training and basic house manners

Calm behavior at doors and around guests

No more counter surfing, chewing, or barking for attention

Socialization with other dogs, when appropriate

Impulse control and focus even when excited

We also introduce key obedience behaviors like:

Sit

Down

Stay (Sit & Down)

Heel and loose leash walking

Name recognition and focus

Everyday recall

You’ll get regular updates, three handover lessons, and follow-up resources so you can confidently continue the work at home.

Why it works: Big dogs need big boundaries. By teaching your puppy how to think before they leap, we prevent common problems before they become habits.

    Dogs stay in our certified trainer's homes. Each dog will have access to ample exercise, treats, toys and tons of training and love.
  • How much will training cost?
    arrow
    Prices vary depending on the duration, type of training, and needs of each dog. We'd be happy to talk you through our programs and identify the right option for you and your furry family member.
  • Will my dog be training alone?
    arrow
    Most of our expert trainers typically have 2-3 additional dogs at one time. This offers an enriching experience for your dog as they are able to socialise and also learn from other dogs. All dogs are closely supervised and trainers have years of experience managing all types of dogs, ages, behavioral issues etc. They are always able to keep your dog safe and happy.
  • How long are the programs?

    Basic obedience programs are 2-4 weeks, with Anxiety and Aggression cases typically needing 4-6 weeks. There are, however, exceptions to every rule and we always want to evaluate each case individually. You can learn more about all programs we offer by contacting a pet consultant or viewing our full list of programs.
  • Does my dog have to go away?

    Board and train programs are what we specialize in. It offers a fully immersive experience for dogs in order to truly change behaviors. Although this is a great start, and particularly effective for busy pet parents, continuing education with your dog afterward will also be important. We make sure you have the knowledge to keep working from home.

    As we only work with the very best trainers we sometimes do have a waiting list, but we do our best to get dogs into a program within 30 days of sign-up.

    Yes, we provide payment plan options. Pay over 6 months with 0% APR interest, and no hidden fees. Pay over 12-36 months at 15.2% APR interest and no hidden fees.
