CHESTNUT HILL AUSTRALIAN LABRADOODLES
Breeding with intention.
Matching the finest puppies by temperament.
Looking for an older puppy? Want a head start on puppy training? We can help!
There are many methods of dog training. We are training using positive methods and reward based training. Researchers report an association between the use of reward-based training methods and positive outcomes for dogs and for the relationship between the dogs and their owners with a higher degree of closeness and bonding. We raise our puppies teaching them the world is safe and people and dogs are friendly- and this training method continues with that philosophy. Dogs repeat behaviors that are rewarding. For example, if a dog gets a treat when he sits, he will be more likely to sit again in the future. That’s why positive reinforcement training, or training with rewards, is so effective.
Also it must be noted that a trained puppy can be untrained in 3 days if the behaviors are not continually reinforced or if the unwanted behaviors are allowed. When your puppy has completed the training, you can expect to spend about 60-90 minutes with us to show you the methods to help your puppy continue to build on the successes already gained.
Each day, the puppies are following a routine to help them know what to expect. It takes some time for a puppy to settle into anything new and the first couple of days take some patience. Rest assured, your puppy is getting lots of snuggles and attention. Puppy is spending progressive time alone in the crate during the day and at night, playtime in a play yard indoors and outdoors, short and frequent training sessions, cuddle sessions and free but supervised play on the farm as well. We are working on socialization, crate and house training, introduction to leash walking, and basic behaviors such as “”Yes”, “Nope”, “Watch me”, “Sit”, “Down”, “Stay”, “Come”, “Let’s Go”, “Crate”, “Let’s go Potty” “Settle”, “Okay”, and “Go to Bed”.
Our trained puppies are sleeping through the night 10p-6a, and able to hold their bladders during the day for several hours, eliminating outside, and sitting to say please automatically.
Training with rewards is fun, builds the human-canine bond, and best of all, encourages a love of learning in dogs. We are working hard with your puppy individually, several times each day as puppy’s need lots of rest still at this age between sessions. Please remember a 12-16 week old puppy is just that- still a very young puppy. Training at this age is just the basics, more advanced training comes as puppy is a bit older. You should not expect your puppy to have perfect behavior after completion of the 2 week training. Puppy will have a great head start and will have learned some basic commands that you can move forward with and have a well mannered puppy And have a great head start.!!
