Puppy Training
Puppy Blues? Contradictory advice on your puppy? Can't socialize your puppy safely?
Why Most Puppy Classes Fall Short
Judgement, rigid rules, and one-size-fits-all training are common in many puppy classes.
While puppy classes sound great in theory, too many fail in practice. Puppies with different temperaments are treated the same, owners are told what to do without understanding why, and real-life situations are rarely addressed. The result is high dropout rates and owners leaving feeling confused, discouraged, or unsupported.
A Smarter Start for Puppies
Doggo Den’s puppy classes were built in response to feedback from puppy owners across Southern Ontario who wanted better results and real support.
Our approach focuses on:
-
Structured puppy socialisation (education + energy burn)
-
Clear, why-based training
-
Adaptable methods for different personalities
-
A supportive community — not judgement
If you want a puppy class that prepares you for real life, not just the classroom, you’re in the right place.

Our Philosophy
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all training.
We believe in adapting to the dog in front of us, explaining the why behind the work, and supporting owners through every stage of development.
If you’re looking for puppy classes that prepare you for real life — not just the classroom — you’re in the right place.
