Puppy Confidence Building Workshop
Puppies are little sponges, and the experiences they have in their first 6 months of life, shape them into the dogs they will become. It’s important that they receive proper socialization and exposure so that they can safely and confidently navigate all the distractions and challenges life will throw at them. The puppy confidence building training is designed to do just that and help your pup be in command of their environment.

This 1 day workshop is the perfect start! We will talk about building engagement with our puppies and creating structure at home, as well as perform a variety of fun confidence building challenges and obstacles, including tunnel, tires, ball pits, and more.All the activities are designed for fun and developmental growth. At the end of the workshop, the puppies will be able to socialize and play! This is a can’t miss workshop for any puppy parent!

Yazmin Lopez
My name is Yazmin,
I was born and raised in Monterrey, Mexico.
Since I was a child I have always loved dogs and becoming a dog trainer now is like a dream come true.
My duty as a trainer is to not only build a strong bond between owners and their pets, but to educate them on the method of positive reinforcement training and behavior modification. This is my way of contributing a little to society by making dogs great furry family members.
In addition to my contribution to society, I volunteered for two years in Nuevo Leรณn, Mexico for an animal shelter. My experience also extends to agility training.
My husband and I founded a pet care and BARF food company back home in Mexico. We live, breath, and sleep dogs and dedicated our lives to making the world a better place by training these extraordinary animals.
