The Puppy Development System

The early weeks and months shape the dog you will live with for years.

The BetterDog Puppy Development System pairs a complete online puppy development course with personal support from me, in the format that suits your home and your puppy.

Every package includes lifetime access to this online course by Jo Rosie Haffenden of The Institute of Applied Canine Science:

14 chapters and 118 video lessons covering biting, toilet training, settling and sleeping, crate training, recall, loose lead walking, socialisation and adolescence, along with the Puppy Development Roadmap.

I use it to guide what we work on, week by week, so nothing is left to chance, and tailor it to your individual needs.

  • Choosing the right puppy

  • Settling in

  • Exploring the world

  • Developing skills

  • Growing confidence

  • Becoming independent
