Why Early Puppy Training Matters
The first few months of your puppy’s life shape everything.
Without the right guidance, small habits can quickly become long-term problems:
-
Jumping on guests
-
Pulling on the lead
-
Chewing your hands and your house
-
Ignoring recall
-
Barking or anxiety
-
Toilet training struggles
-
Separation Anxiety
With the right structure and positive reinforcement, your puppy can learn:
✔ Reliable Potty Training
✔ Biting Management
✔ Solid recall
✔ Loose-lead walking
✔ Calm behaviour in the home
✔ Polite greetings
✔ Correct Socialisation
✔ Focus and engagement with you
✔ And most importantly — confidence.

 Genevieve and PucaAfter our baby was born I struggled to manage our 6 month golden retriever puppy. I couldn’t walk her with the buggy due to pulling and realised that she was not as obedient as I needed her to be when at home. I loved our pup so much but it was beginning to feel impossible and I regretted the decision to get a puppy. I reached out to Lauren and honestly it was the best decision we ever made! |  Geesha and ZeroI had a very very positive experience. Lauren is a very effective communicator and the fact that she comes to your house is an added bonus. She provided us with the knowledge and tools we needed to train our puppy and was always available for questions inbetween lessons. There were times where I didn’t apply the steps correctly which she quickly but politely corrected and the results were fantastic. She sees the potential in your dog and helps you work with it. Thanks again, Lauren! |  Lea and MontyWe worked with Lauren on our newly adopted golden retriever puppy Monty and we’ve seen great development since the start of the course. Monty is now 6 months old and Lauren helped us train him to become the good and well trained boy that he is. Would recommend for sure 😁 |  Hélen and RingoI cannot say I much helpful Planet Pup has been for me and my baby dog .. I recommend her at 100% |

 Dee and TazLauren is amazing. Her knowledge of animals but especially dogs knows no bounds. I have a 7 month old boxer and they are hyper by nature. We have been doing the plan for a few weeks now and he has come on in leaps and bounds and is responding so well. What took me 4 weeks of trying to get him to lie down Lauren achieved in literally 3 minutes. She gives you alternate ways to work with your dog if they are not responding and she teaches the adults as much as the dogs. We learnt so much |  Deborah and SandyI would 150 percent recommend Lauren to anyone with a pup/dog issues or none this lady is like a dog whisperer. what she has thought me in only a few weeks is amazing, she adores her animals but let's them know who's boss. Sandy is happy hiper teething 14 weeks Bernese mountain and already has all basic commands but will now lie down when all doors are open without me chasing her around the field trying to get her back. Lauren also thought my 4 year old how to train pup... |
