Puppy Training in Chicago
In-home puppy training is the best way to ensure that the newest member of your family adjusts well to their forever home. We can start training pups as young as 7 weeks!
Don’t wait to see if your puppy begins demonstrating bad behavior. With all the money you’ll save on chewed shoes and carpet cleaning, this training program will practically pay for itself. The best thing you can do to prepare for your puppy’s arrival is to learn to set boundaries gently and effectively from day one with the help of a certified professional dog trainer.

Proven Training Plans to Reinforce Good Behavior
Think about the situation from a puppy’s point of view. They’re in a new place, with new people. They are out of their element, and, if left to their own devices, boredom and lack of guidance will result in undesirable behavior.
The trainers at Second City Dog Training in Chicago can put your pup at ease and make sure you feel confident when interacting with them.
We recommend a consultation before bringing your puppy home. A consultation allows us to address any concerns, offer preliminary advice, and ensure the home environment is ready. We’ll be there later, too, to help your puppy adapt, gauge temperament, and guide you through the early days.
