You Only Get One First Day.

That first car ride.
The tiny paws on your floor.
The excitement (and nerves!) of starting this new chapter together.

It’s such a special moment—but it can feel overwhelming, too.

Bringing Puppy Home helps you ease into it with confidence.
Instead of scrambling for answers, you’ll have a simple plan to create calm, build trust, and start your life together on the right foot and paw.

Because here’s the thing:
Puppies learn fast.
Every experience—especially in those first few days—shapes how they see the world.

This is your chance to lay a foundation of safety, connection, and curiosity…
to help your puppy grow into the calm, confident companion you’ve been dreaming of.

No pressure. No perfection.
Just a thoughtful transition into a new life together—while it matters most.

This Is Perfect for You If...

  • You’re bringing your puppy home soon—or just did and already have questions
  • You want to start off right and prevent bad habits before they begin
  • You’re craving a simple, proven plan—without second-guessing every little thing
  • You’re a first-time puppy parent (or it’s been a while!) and want to feel confident
  • Your puppy is pre-vaccinated and you're eager to get a head start on training
  • You’ve had dogs before and know how important early structure really is
  • You want to raise a calm, well-behaved dog—and know that begins on day one
  • You love the idea of being prepared, not just hopeful
  • You’re busy—but intentional—and want to build a true connection with your pup from the start

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is Bringing Puppy Home different from The Puppy System?

    Bringing Puppy Home is a stand-alone course that also serves as lesson 1 of The Puppy System. This 1 hour course is just the beginning of a deeper and more comprehensive training journey that is ready for you when your puppy comes home!

  • Can I take the free course and decide later on The Puppy System?

    Absolutely! Bringing Puppy Home is the perfect starting point and flows seamlessly into The Puppy System whenever you’re ready.

  • What if I already brought my puppy home?

    Puppies thrive on structure, and while starting early is beneficial, it’s never too late to start training. The lessons inside Bringing Puppy Home work beautifully with puppies of any age as long as you’re ready to start afresh!

  • How long is the free course?

    It’s just about an hour total—broken into quick, practical lessons you can watch before your puppy arrives (or revisit anytime).

  • Is this self-paced?

    Yes! You can watch on your own schedule, as many times as you’d like.

  • Will this work with in-person training, online training, or breeder support?

    Definitely. Bringing Puppy Home is a great complement to any program—including The Puppy System—and adds structure and clarity to whatever support you already have.

  • What age puppy is this best for?

    Bringing Puppy Home is ideal for puppies 8–12 weeks, but the tips and routines are helpful for slightly older puppies too—especially during the adjustment period.

  • How soon should I start watching?

    As soon as possible! Watching before pick-up day gives you time to prepare and feel calm. But even if your puppy is already home, it’s never too late to reset and build a better routine.

  • What if I don’t have my puppy yet?

    Perfect! This course was made for you. The earlier you watch, the more prepared you’ll feel—and the smoother your transition will be.

Your path to a well-adjusted puppy begins now!
