Puppy training Boot Camp

At Connected Canine in North Phoenix, our Puppy Training Boot Camp is quickly becoming Arizona’s premier choice for intensive, results-driven puppy training. This comprehensive board-and-train program immerses your puppy in an environment dedicated to building confidence, teaching proper etiquette, and establishing a foundation of reliable obedience. 

Offered in 4-, 8-, or 12-week sessions, our puppy boot camp features a minimum of five training days each week, ensuring your puppy develops essential life skills that last well beyond graduation.

Comprehensive Puppy Obedience and Real-World Skills
Under the guidance of our Master Trainer, your puppy will learn how to respond to essential obedience commands, practice puppy leash training to walk calmly next to you, and improve household manners. By integrating structured puppy training classes into the program, we reinforce positive behaviors, instill proper boundaries, and develop impulse control. By the end of the course, your puppy will confidently perform core obedience tasks like sit, stay, come, and wait at doors—vital skills for everyday life.

Owner Involvement for Lasting Results
Long-term obedience doesn’t end when the program ends. Our puppy boot camp includes owner training, ensuring you can maintain and build upon the progress made during your puppy’s stay. Through hands-on instruction, written materials, and video demonstrations, you’ll be equipped to continue effective puppy training techniques at home, promoting a lifetime of good behavior and cooperation.

A Full-Spectrum Curriculum Tailored to Puppies

• Puppy Obedience Training (Imprinting): Teach your puppy foundational commands for daily living, from leash walking without pulling to executing reliable sit-stays and down-stays.
• Confidence Building: Our boot camp helps puppies develop resilience through obstacle courses, agility equipment, and environmental exposure—key elements that encourage growth, stability, and confidence.
• On & Off-Leash Obedience: We progress from basic commands to advanced, off-leash reliability, ensuring your puppy remains attentive and responsive, regardless of distractions.
• Proper Etiquette: Your puppy will learn to greet humans politely, enter and exit vehicles calmly on command, and behave with composure during routine daily activities.
• Treadmill Training: Structured workouts on a slat mill treadmill improve physical stamina, muscle tone, and focus, supplementing the obedience and impulse control work for balanced development.
• Pack Socialization: Supervised group play teaches puppies how to interact appropriately with other dogs, respect social cues, and cooperate as part of a pack.
• Field Trips (For 12-Week Programs): Real-world outings help reinforce obedience and etiquette amid public distractions, ensuring your puppy will remain well-behaved in a variety of settings.
