Our Puppy Services Are
Pre-Puppy Pack
One of the things you will notice as a new puppy owner is how much conflicting information there is about puppies and dog training in general out there. We put over 60 years of experience working with puppies and dogs into our pre-puppy pack to give you the best resources to welcome your new family member with the best start possible. This includes help on selecting a good breeder, how to be a responsible owner, when to start socialising, how to prepare your home for your new arrival and the basics for those first few weeks out of routine. When you purchase this pack, the cost is added to your account and can be used as credit within six months if you choose to go on and use any of our other puppy services.

Puppy Classes
(3-6 months)
Once your puppy is fully vaccinated, the fun begins! Our small group puppy classes have been created using everything we know about the young dog brain. Groups are kept limited so that puppies have chance to socialise without being overwhelmed. Suitable for puppies from three to six months, this series of six on-site classes will take you and your little one through all of the basics that will become essential life skills. This includes mat training, how to play with your puppy to build focus and trust, helping them to feel comfortable at the vet and a variety of skills that we will practice in a variety of environments. Puppy classes book up in advance, please get in touch to add your name to the next available class block.
Puppy Masterclass
One-to-one puppy training, before your little one is fully vaccinated and is able to leave the home, they are already taking in so much and learning about your family and how to behave in the world. For your masterclass, you will be assigned a trainer who will visit you and work with you directly covering everything from a supportive environment to toilet training, socialisation to enriching training. This option is also available via Zoom rather than in-person.

Puppy Assessment
This 45 minute assessment session with one of our puppy trainers is a great place to start your training journey. Every dog is individual, as are the family they have become a part of, and this one-to-one time enables us to share specific advice relevant to your goals and determine a training path that will help you to reach them and feel supported. Further details on our Puppy Assessments can be found here and you can book your onsite assessment easily through our online portal.
Puppy Training
(3-6 months)
These one-to-one, 45 minute sessions with one of our puppy training experts are ideal for those who can’t make our puppy classes but still want to get going with training while pup is young, before they reach adolescence. This is an ideal stage to step in and embed the right desired behaviours using positive training techniques, before things like stubbornness and an unexpected decline in listening can often set in! Your puppy will be forming a strong sense of their own personality at this stage and you will likely have some key areas that you want some support with. This one-to-one service allows us to focus on these while making sure you as the owner are as involved in training as possible. You can book the timing of these sessions to suit you but we do recommend keeping sessions close together, especially for young dogs, to stimulate increased learning and progression.

Puppy Masterclass
- Biological needs – giving them the calm knowledge that all of their basic needs are covered and they can rely on you without having to worry about their safety.
- Emotional needs – Alongside the basic needs to survive, your puppy has more complex emotional needs, like any member of the family. This section helps you to understand what your puppy is feeling and how to keep them stimulated and reassured to bring out the best in them.
- Social needs – dogs are pack animals by nature and your puppy needs social interaction for their development and happiness. We see owners who have both under and over-socialised their puppy that run into trouble later. This section covers appropriate socialising with you, the family, visitors to your home, strangers and other dogs.
- Force-free training needs – a core part of the work we do at Royvon to help dogs is training using positive reinforcement. This section will teach you the four pillars of positive reinforcement and introduce you to the playful methods that will form your on-going training as your puppy grows.
- Cognitive needs – this section focuses on the brain development for your puppy, understanding the way their personality and breed plays a role in what they respond best to, and how to give them appropriate challenges to learn from.
- How to structure a typical day – helping to bring structure to the chaos a new puppy in the house can bring, we will take you through a day plan to fulfilfulfill all of the above needs without feeling overwhelmed.
