Teen Tune-Up: Adolescent Puppy Program

Ages 6 – 18 months

Thriving Through Adolescence

A puppy’s adolescence can be a wild ride. With it comes selective hearing, big emotions, and bursts of independence that call for a whole new approach to training. Our Teen Tune-Up Program will help you and your puppy navigate this sometimes tempestuous stage of development.

Our Teen Tune-Up Program is a 4-week, small group training experience that blends obedience refreshers, enrichment, play, and real-world practice to keep training relevant, effective – and fun!

Check Out Our New Daycare-Enrichment Program

At Hillary’s Hound House we believe puppyhood should be joyful, stimulating, and full of opportunities to learn and grow.

Our new Daycare & Enrichment Program is more than a place to play – it’s a thoughtfully designed experience that supports your puppy’s emotional development, confidence, social skills, and manners in a safe, supportive setting.

“Hillary, the owner, was an absolute joy to work with. Her knowledge, warmth, and support made our experience even more memorable. She went above and beyond to ensure our puppy’s success and our satisfaction with the program. I wholeheartedly recommend Hillary’s Hounds House to anyone in the area with a puppy. Trust me, you and your furry friend will not be disappointed!”
