For pet parents, training can start as soon as your puppy comes home with simple, age-appropriate skills and routines. Early training can focus on communication, positive reinforcement, household routines, social skills, and foundational cues. Central Bark also offers Puppy Hour, a free opportunity to help your puppy learn, socialize, and build positive early experiences while you connect with Central Bark professionals about your puppy’s needs.
