Puppy Training In home And Private

Raise a Calm, Confident, and Balanced Dog 

At SitDropStay, we believe the first few months of a puppy’s life are critical for their development, behaviour, and your relationship. Our in-home, private puppy training empowers you to raise a happy, calm, and well-behaved dog, setting the foundation for a lifetime of cooperation and connection.

Our puppy training consults are designed for pups up to six months of age, with flexible scheduling to suit your family — including weekends and after hours. Full phone and email support is included from your first session.

Why Puppy Training Matters

A well-raised puppy grows into a balanced, confident adult dog. Puppies require:

  • Leadership and clear boundaries

  • Love, affection, and play

  • Socialisation and stimulation

  • Consistency in routines and expectations

Your behaviour, routines, and environment over the coming months are critical in shaping your puppy’s confidence, emotional stability, and manners.

Why SitDropStay Puppy Training

Our philosophy is simple: you are the key to your puppy’s behaviour. We focus on:

  • Educating and empowering owners

  • Incorporating training into your real-life environment

  • Establishing trust, respect, and connection

  • Providing practical tools you can use immediately

Together, we can help you raise the dog you’ve always wanted — calm, confident, well-mannered, and a joy to live with.

How Our Puppy Training Works

After the initial contact, your local SitDropStay behaviour specialist will organise to come to your home at a time that suits you, including weekends and after hours. They will then observe you interacting with your pup, listen to what you want and work out what needs to happen. Together you will create a puppy training plan based on your puppy’s individual personality traits, breed, habits and temperament. Seeing you in your home environment allows your trainer to personalise your training and factor in your routine, lifestyle, other family members/pets, personal preferences and owner experience. Full phone and email support is included from your first session.
