Training & Socialization

It is so important to get puppy signed up for training right away AND to start socializing between 9-12 weeks old. DO NOT WAIT. You will want to continue all of the different exposures we started before they were eight weeks old.  Below are items that Foothill Aussies have used, have been recommended by trainers or have been recommended by Foothill Aussie Puppy Parents. If you have any questions about why or how to use these items, please let us know! If you have questions specific to training, please review Our Training Tips or Find a Trainer.
