We can work together as a team and we will socialize your puppy by taking him out and about in the world. we will introduce him to your vet's office, shopping centers, trains, buses, trucks and motorcycles as well as children, seniors, firemen, police officers and the ice cream man. We will give him a strong foundation to help prepare him for a lifetime of confidence and teach him good manners and maybe how to play fetch. 

We will work with you and your family members as well as the dog walker(if needed).  

 We will work together to solve behavior problems before they start and understand what may be going on already.

We will teach you how to continue growing  your puppy's bonded secure attachment and his trust in you 

and the world in which he lives. 

We will work together to maintain his healthy curiosity and the amazement and joy you share with him.
