Helping Albuquerque Pet Parents

Navigate Puppy Training

Welcoming a new puppy is thrilling, yet it often brings challenges. From potty training to handling nipping, it’s normal to feel overwhelmed. That's where Good Buddy Dog Training steps in. Beginning at just 10 weeks, we support you and your puppy through training, simplifying the process so you can cherish your time together.

Create Good Habits with Early Puppy Training

Training your puppy is a great way to set your little furball up for success. It's much easier to teach good habits now than to fix bad ones later. Starting early helps them grow into a well-mannered dog and builds a happy bond with you from the get-go!

About Good Buddy Dog Training

Very good dog training. The dogs have progressed quite far and he gave us the skills to keep them learning new behaviors. I was very happy with the in-home training and how he fit it into our schedule. I looked at four different trainers before selecting Paul and am glad I chose him. If you need dog training then this is the place to get it.

I have nothing but great things to say about Good Buddy Dog Training. I’ve tried working with other trainers and they kinda made me feel like my dog was a lost cause. I started working with Paul and OMG can I see a difference in my pup. The instructions are simple to follow and Paul was really great to work with. I recommend Good Buddy Dog Training to any and everyone I know looking for a dog trainer.

FAQs About Puppy Training in Albuquerque

What is the best age to start training a puppy?

We recommend beginning training as early as 10 weeks old. At this age, puppies are naturally curious and eager to learn, making it the perfect time to establish a foundation for good behavior. Starting early helps prevent unwanted habits and prepares your puppy for lifelong success. If you’re looking for a puppy training program in Albuquerque, your search ends here. We’re ready to support your pup through this important stage.

What will my puppy learn in the program?

Your puppy will learn essential commands like “sit,” “stay,” and “come,” as well as leash manners, potty training, and how to interact politely with other dogs and people. Good Buddy Dog Training has professional dog trainers in Albuquerque to customize each program to focus on the skills that matter most to your family. Our goal is to help your puppy grow into a confident, well-behaved companion, making them a joy to be around both at home and in any setting.

What’s the fastest way to train a puppy?

While it might be tempting to use punishment-based methods for quick results, they can harm your puppy in the long run. Harsh corrections can lead to anxiety, fear, and a breakdown in trust, causing behavioral issues down the road. At Good Buddy Dog Training, we only use positive reinforcement techniques, such as treats, praise, and encouragement, to reward good behavior. While it may take a bit more time and patience, this approach results in a happy, well-adjusted pup and a strong, loving relationship.

Where does the training take place?

All sessions are held at your Albuquerque home where your puppy feels safe and comfortable. This familiar environment allows us to address real-life scenarios, making the training more relevant and effective. Plus, it’s convenient for you and your family, ensuring that both you and your puppy feel at ease throughout the process.

How do I get started?

The first step is to schedule an in-home evaluation. During this session, we’ll assess your puppy’s behavior, learn more about your family’s needs, and discuss your training goals. From there, we’ll create a customized six-week training plan that fits your schedule and meets your puppy’s unique needs.
