A puppy is like a toddler that is looking for guidance and rules and is eager to please, yet often ends up being a trouble maker.  But unlike a toddler, your pup will grow into a pesky teenager in just a few months!  If you fail to start training your puppy from the beginning, puppy will “train” itself, with often disasterous results. Do not wait until bad habits develop!  Get the guidance from a professional and invest a little bit of your time, and you will be rewarded with a beautiful lifelong relationship between you and your dog.
