Puppy & Adolescent Training Program
Calm, Confident Foundations for Life
Need ongoing support for a general dog behaviour in West Sussex? programmes provides structured guidance, tailored plans, and expert help.
At Ravendale Training and Behaviour, this 1–2–1 programme is designed to guide you through the most important stages of your dog’s development from early puppyhood through adolescence.
These early months shape your dog’s behaviour, confidence, and emotional wellbeing for life. With the right support, you can prevent common challenges, build strong foundations, and raise a dog you truly enjoy living with.
🌿 Who This Programme Is For
This programme is ideal for:
- New puppy owners who want to start off right
- Puppies struggling with biting, toileting, or settling
- Adolescent dogs becoming distracted, excitable, or “forgetting” training
- Owners who feel overwhelmed or unsure what to focus on
- Anyone wanting calm, practical guidance without pressure or judgement
💡 If your dog is showing reactivity, aggression, or anxiety, a behaviour programme may be more suitable.
🧠 Common Challenges We Work Through
Every puppy and adolescent dog is different, but we often support with:
- Biting and mouthing
- Toilet training
- Lead walking foundations
- Recall foundations
- Overexcitement and jumping up
- Settling and relaxation

❓ FAQs
🐾 When should I start training my puppy?
As early as possible. Training can begin from the moment your puppy comes home, using gentle, age-appropriate methods.
🐶 What if my puppy is already showing problem behaviours?
This is very common. Early support can prevent these behaviours from becoming long-term issues.
🧠 Do you use force-free methods?
Yes training is based on positive reinforcement, trust, and clear communication.
🐕 Do you cover adolescent dogs too?
Yes. Adolescence is often when training becomes more challenging, and ongoing support can make a huge difference.
