Puppy Classes
At Marvel Dog Training Academy, we believe in fostering a strong bond between you and your puppy while teaching essential obedience skills. Our training methods are gentle, effective, and designed to be enjoyable for both you and your pup.
Our Puppy classes focus on building a solid foundation for a well-behaved and confident companion. Each week, we’ll cover essential obedience commands, handling techniques, impulse control, and socialization exercises. Dog socialization isn’t about making your dog love everyone—it’s about creating a stable, well-mannered dog who can confidently navigate the world without jumping on people or rushing up to other dogs, because their focus and trust are with you. We teach you how to build that unbreakable bond so you become the center of your dog’s world. Our goal is to equip you with the tools to raise a happy, well-rounded dog.
