Puppy Training

Private 1:1 coaching in-home or at our Mason facility. Designed for everyday Lansing puppy parents to grow and build a puppy who flourishes into adulthood.

Where Puppies Go To Raise The Woof!

The first 3 to 16 weeks of your puppy’s development are crucial in shaping their future behavior.

This comprehensive, rewards-based program is geared for puppies and adolescents (8-weeks to 2 years of age). It focuses on confidence-building, impulse control, and self-regulation, helping to prevent fear, reactivity, and aggression later in life.

Socialization goes beyond simply meeting new people and dogs—it’s about creating positive experiences that teach

your puppy to navigate the world with resilience and choice. With the right foundation, your puppy

will grow into a secure, self-regulated companion, ready to take on life each day with confidence—

knowing you’re always in their corner as their dedicated guardian.

TESTIMONIALS

What others are saying

Mandy was so great to work with!

"We are first-time puppy parents and had no clue where to start with Max's training, but knew we wanted to stick with reward-based, force-free training. On top of general obedience skills, reactivity prevention training, as well as potty training. Everyone always comments on how well behaved Max is, and we have Raise The Woof to thank!"

I had a wonderful experience with Mandy as my dog trainer.

"She was so encouraging, insightful and outgoing. I was able to teach my dog many new tricks, connect with my dog, and my dog had the time of his life all due to Mandy's support and skills. Thank you so much Mandy!"
