P.R.O. Teen Program
Give Your Teen Dog the Confidence and Skills They Need
Our 3–4 Week P.R.O. Teen Program is designed specifically for adolescent dogs—roughly 6 months to 2 years old—to help them transition from puppyhood to adulthood with confidence, manners, and reliability. We avoid “puppy talk” and focus on practical skills, emotional growth, and real-world obedience.
Your teen dog will live and learn with a professional trainer who specializes in confidence building, problem-solving, and shaping mature habits, all using positive reinforcement only—no prong collars, e-collars, or fear-based methods.
