Looking for expert Eagle puppy training? Our weekly, one-hour private lessons give your puppy a strong start in life. You’ll work one-on-one with your trainer at her in-home training space in Eagle, Idaho, or in real-world public settings to build confidence, manners, and social skills.

Obedience and basic commands
Socialization with people, dogs, and new environments
Leash walking, crate training, and potty training
Preventing common puppy behaviors like biting, chewing, and jumping
We’ll help you set clear goals and create a personalized training plan. After each lesson, you’ll receive step-by-step homework and ongoing support to reinforce progress at home.

Basic obedience commands: sit, down, come, place, and leash walking
Crate training and following a consistent daily routine
Potty training with a structured schedule
Confidence building through age-appropriate challenges
Safe, positive socialization with people, dogs, and new environments
Each program is fully customized to your puppy’s age, behavior, and your household needs, ensuring they return home with obedience, manners, and a smooth transition into your lifestyle. You’ll receive regular updates, and at the end of the program, we work one-on-one with you to reinforce lasting success. Board & Trains include private lesson training for the owner, though they do not include your dog’s crate, food, or take-home training equipment.

The Puppy Head Start™ program is a step-by-step online course for raising calm, confident, and well-behaved puppies. Designed for puppies 2–6 months old, it covers crate and potty training, obedience foundations, socialization, and preventing common behavior problems.

Crate and potty training with proven systems

Our Puppy Training Philosophy
Why Our Approach Gets Lasting Results
Our philosophy is all about building strong foundations—like the brick house in The Three Little Pigs. Training puppies correctly from the start creates results that last.
At Valor K9 Academy, we focus on raising confident, well-mannered puppies through:
-
Clear communication – teaching puppies what we want.
-
Motivation and positive reinforcement – using food, treats, and praise to create happy, engaged learners.
-
Guidance and structure – using a slip lead for clarity.
-
Foundational skills – socialization, confidence building, obedience, and manners for everyday life.
-
Whole-puppy approach – meeting physical, mental, and emotional needs.
Our goal: help you feel calm, confident, and in control while setting your puppy up for lifelong success.
Backed by a Published Puppy Training Expert
Our puppy training programs are led by Valor K9 Academy founder Amy Pishner, author of The Puppy Head Start, published by Post Hill Press (distributed by Simon & Schuster). The book reflects the same real-world, positive reinforcement methods used in our Boise puppy training programs to help owners raise calm, confident, well-mannered puppies.
