If you have young children in your home, we will pay special attention to socializing the pup with our kids and neighborhood children. Above and beyond the usual activities, our children will hand feed your puppy, handle it during meal times, help with grooming, and leash walking. The puppy will learn to take commands from children, play without biting or jumping, and see them as being above them in the pack. Our kids are very assertive and consistent when interacting with the puppies. You will need to continue this with your children when the puppy comes home. We offer many different programs to accommodate a variety of lifestyles. Boot Camp fees are $550/week with a two week minimum and are due when your puppy is four weeks of age. Consider your goals, family needs, and the time and energy you are willing to commit to your new addition when reserving your puppy’s training stay. Two Week Stay: For those that are looking forward to working with their new puppy but want a little help getting started, the two week training session is for you. This is our basic course and skills learned include getting your puppy accustomed to a daily crating routine that matches your schedule, potty training, introduction to loose leash walking, basic manners such as waiting patiently for meals, sitting for attention, learning not to jump or bark rudely, and the commands “no bite, leave it, and off” are introduced and enforced. Puppies are still very much a baby at this age and will require a great deal of attention from you to continue their learning. Click on any of the pictures to view larger. Four Week Stay: For those individuals that work outside of the house all day or busy families, especially with young children, this training program is the minimum recommendation. Puppies that have been through four weeks of training are calmer and have learned a great deal more patience. All of the items listed in the two week course have been well learned including some additional higher level skills. More socialization opportunities are provided to create a well rounded experience for your puppy such as swimming lessons and short outings around town. The four week stay is our most popular training package and works well for the majority of families that want a good solid start to their puppy’s training.

After puppies have completed this program they will arrive home on “cruise control” knowing all skills wonderfully. Our customers have found their puppies to be very easy to manage and continuance of skills learned is effortless enabling the pups to fit into a family with ease.

Twelve Week Stays: The twelve week extended stay is provided for those individuals who don’t want to deal with early puppyhood issues and simply want a well trained older puppy to blend into their family seamlessly. Puppies at this age are past the nipping phase and the razor sharp baby teeth are gone, the adult teeth are in. All vaccines including rabies will be completed and puppies are already spayed or neutered prior to coming home. All families will receive weekly updates informing them of what their puppy has been learning, also included are pictures and/or video of your puppy. During the last week of your puppy’s training session, we will send you an Instruction Sheet detailing all we have been working on with your puppy as well as a listing of all commands. A step by step daily schedule will also be provided to guide you through the day with your new family member and of course we are always available to assist you with any questions as they arise long after your puppy comes home. Call or email us anytime! Click on any of the pictures to view larger. Boarding: Due to popular demand we now offer on a limited basis, boarding for Boot Camp Alumni. If your travel or vacation plans don’t include your Doodle we’ll be happy to care for them while you’re away. Instead of being locked in a kennel all day and learning to bark, your Doodle will be in a familiar home environment where all training and manners will be reinforced. Cost for boarding is $50/day and reservations should be made in advance to ensure availability. Milo’s Boot Camp is an exclusive service offered to Moss Creek Goldendoodle owners only. If you would like to reserve space for your puppy in our program, please indicate this on the puppy application form or during your phone interview with Kelli. Once your puppy has been born, you will be referred to our training consultant. Click on any of the pictures to view larger.
