From the minute a puppy is born, we are given an amazing opportunity to set them up for success. Starting at just 3 days old, and all the way through 12 weeks of age. There is much we can do as breeders and puppy owners to nurture them and mold them into amazing puppies that transform into amazing adult dogs that will bring us joy for years to come!
This is the program that we use and highly encourage each and every one of our puppy families to purchase it and continue on with once their puppy is home with them.

you might ask?
Finding and utilizing a good trainer is so important in the success of your puppy! You can certainly research your area for someone local who aligns with what you feel is the best approach for you.
We are a big proponent for balanced trainers that use positive reinforcement along with correction. You reward to enforce good behavior, and you correct to change bad behavior. Although many things can be achieved with reward and positive reinforcement, we do not agree with positive only training. Dogs, especially Leavitts, need both. Praise is good, boundaries are good, treats are good, saying no and having a consequence to back that up is good. We want a balanced, happy, and respectful dog, and that’s how you get there!
We do have an amazing trainer that can work with you! Tiffany Huebner with AQK9 has over 20 years experience in a variety of disciplines and is truly passionate about getting you real life results to meet your goals. She can work with you virtually via phone or Zoom if you are not located in MN, or privately at your home if you are within a reasonable distance. She is also creating online courses that you can utilize whenever works best in your life and schedule.
