These kids were started the same as all our puppies.

• Meaning they started with ENS and ESI.

• They have grown up on a puppy curriculum.

• Have been raised and socialized well with children.

• The vet has seen them and vaccinated them.

• They have been handled daily and are temperament tested.

• Exposed to crate training and microchipped with preregistration.

• They go home with a 2 yr health guarantee.

• 30 days of insurance provided by Trupanion.

• And a lifetime access to the premier online dog training program Baxter and Bella with live trainers. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Where the difference comes in is that these kiddos have also received actual training and a great foundation for you to continue with and hopefully expand on:

Establishing good manners.

• No jumping/making good choices when greeting people.

• No pulling on the leash when walking.

• Coming when called the first time.

• Waiting patiently for doors and not bolting out.

• Giving toys back when asked.

• Being calm and ok with being crates for their safety and sanity. Puppies need naps too!

Basic obedience

• like sit, down and stay on the first ask. 

 

All this training will set you back a months worth of Board-and-train with a trainer. We have included this for you. 

Does that make it so they’re priced higher? It certainly does. We have spend the hours you now don’t have to. Trained puppies are a wonderful option for people who don’t want to go through the puppy phase and prefer a more mature and settled puppy. They are still puppies but with established boundaries that take only a fraction of training to upkeep their accomplishment. 

​

There is an additional cost for this. It is $1500. This is for 4 weeks of training the skills described above. You can add it to any Doodlebug Family puppy not already pre-trained. There is limited availability for this add-on so discuss it asap when inquiring about adding a Doodlebug Family puppy.
