Training included

Level One Training

• Week One: All puppies are introduced to ENS (Early Neurological Stimulation)
  This is a routine of massaging under their paws and in between their toes. Gentle rubbing in and around the mouth, ears, and along their back and tail. Holding them gently on their back and cuddling them to help
  give them a sense of security.
• Week Two: Continue with ENS and introduction to different surfaces.
  Puppies are gently massaged with the Stimulation exercises. We are trimming nails and placing them on the scale for a few minutes to help them acknowledge safety with different surfaces.
• Week Three: Continue with ENS and introduction to scents.
  During this week we are interacting with the puppies more they are starting to climb on our laps. We are using cotton balls with different scents on them to introduce different smells. Playtime consists of interacting with some soft-moving toys.
• Week Four: Continue with ENS and introduce new sounds.
  We are still doing the massage exercises repeatedly during the day. Pups are very acquainted with our voices.  We are working on the puppy call at this time. The puppy call is a repeated phrase we use here to get the attention of the entire group. This phrase is used only during this initial time of training.  Learn why it is so important to start off with a puppy call with an entire group. Also, we are letting them walk freely in and out of the crate and have lots of interaction with toys. With the massage technique, we are introducing some soft chew treats with the puppies while massaging their mouths. Soft velcro collars are put on them during playtime to help them get used to the collar.
• Week Five: Starting to work on socialization
  During this week the puppies are introduced to eating on their own without Mom. As doing this we downsize the group to 2 to 3 at a feeding time. We interacted with them on boundaries with a slip leash to give them a slight tug going in and out of the crate. During the feeding and playtime pups will have collars on to help them with dealing with distractions. Routine cleaning and getting them acquainted with a hair trimmer and other noises such as vacumn cleaner and phone and door rings etc.
• Week Six: Starting the puppies immunization schedule
  This is a big week, we continue with week five exercises this has helped the puppies to adjust to being without Mom and giving us more attention to their needs. This is the true bonding stage with humans because at this age the puppies are weaned from their mother shortly after their 6-week immunization. We still keep them in a group during this week as to not overwhelm them with many changes. We are keeping a close eye on each one as to see how well they adjust. Towards the end of the week, we do the personality test.
• Week Seven: This kicks off their training sessions
  During this week the puppies are introduced to separate sleeping areas during the day. We work on short 30-minute sessions and gradually increase. Also, we are advancing on the boundary sessions with the crate and slip leash. During this time we also introduce a standard collar with a leash. This may be just a short time spent with them dragging the leash around to get a feel for the collar and leash. We do not let the collars on them when playing with other puppies, this tends to start tug-of-war play which we discourage.
• Week Eight: Consistent Short Sessions
  We are working individually in short sessions during the day.
  Areas we focus on are; coming when called, sitting in the kennel without fussing, and learning to sit calmly for attention.
  Also, we are working consistently on social behavior such as no bite and no jump. Puppies are introduced to loud vehicles and road noise.
• Week Nine: These are areas you can work on at home
  We encourage continued sessions with short 5 to 10 minutes several times a day. Focusing on areas that the puppy has experienced already referring back to Week Seven and Eight. The handling we have done during the first few weeks of the puppy’s newborn life will be remembered. This will help in areas such as grooming cleaning and cuddling with the puppy.

Extended Training 

Level Two Training

Training the puppy during the first 8 weeks has put your puppy in an excellent spot to receive additional training.

• Working to perfect Your puppy’s best behavior
  As with any training once you start it is best to keep it up. Our individual training with one one-on-one exercises gives your puppy the opportunity to fit seamlessly into your home environment. We give you constant feedback on how your puppy is learning and what we find helpful to encourage your puppy with good manors.
• Consistently working with socialization
  We know that you want a puppy to go with you on your short trips. We will be working with the puppy on short drives getting them acquainted with vehicles and the harness to keep them safe. Trips to the park in town, and trips to other homes to introduce them to new environments including people and other animals.
• Extended walks on leash with potty breaks
  Pups like to explore and we give them plenty of time to do this in playtime here. However, they are experiencing different sounds, sights, and smells on daily walks. Whether this is in our rural setting or in town with meeting people and other dogs. Sometimes these sessions are controlled and sometimes we let the puppy investigate if they want to. This encourages their interaction and giving them the freedom of space lets them know we are still in control but not demanding their full attention.
• Commands are always a main focus
  In order to control your puppy in all circumstances you must have commands they know and respect. I have been told that I should not give my puppy a command as simple as no. We always follow up with hand commands along with words. Such as No Bite with closed fist. And No Jump can get confusing with a puppy but keeping a controlled voice command in a deeper voice sets the tone for your puppy to know that this is not allowed. We are consistently keeping these basic commands as our focus during this second level of training.
• As we are working towards progress not perfection
  We feel that even a little upward progress is better than perfection. With repetition, your puppy will get to perfection in time. Our focus is to lay the ground rules for success and let you have the pleasure of easing into perfection as your puppy gets acquainted with you as their leader.
• Communication is key
  During this second level of training with your puppy, it is important to let us know about your home environment as much as possible so that we can work on areas that would be most helpful for you. For example, if you have a flight of stairs that the puppy will need to be using. Or if you have young children and loud noises the puppy will need to be adjusted too. We are good about letting you know what your puppy accomplished and we can do this to your specifications or needs.
• The extended time of training
  With additional training of your puppy, there will need to be some arrangements made. It is best to express this need as soon as you reserve your puppy or before making your deposit to reserve your puppy. 
  Extensive training requires an additional person to be staffed here at Siess Ranch designated as the sole trainer. This training will require additional payment per day of training. This can all be discussed and agreed upon prior to your reservation of the puppy. If there is a need to make plans of extended training after your reservation and deposit of the puppy it will need to be approved upon request.
