Well worth it !

As the breeder of my new puppy (now 4 weeks old) is using the Puppy Culture sytem before my puppy comes home, I wanted to know all about it. I bought the Puppy Culture film which was so informative that I wanted to know more - and boy did I get more !
I only wish more new puppy owners would take the time to find out about dogs/puppy's before buying. I have now also bought Jane's book 'Should I Spay or Neuter My Dog? etc. - what an eye opener !

Well worth the time

This course takes you through steps to help develop a well balanced puppy in your house, regardless of what the puppy's final "job" will be. Our breed club strongly suggests that all new puppy owners take this course. Take the time to watch the homework assignments as they can help you to figure out what you can do to improve your training skills.

I gift this to each one of my puppy families !

Jane does a much better job at educating new puppy parents than I could ever do. It's the most important part of breeding !! I am ever so grateful that with a few clicks online I can send a copy to every puppy parent. It gives me such peace of mind to know my sweet pups are getting the best start, even once they leave me.
