Private Puppy School in Adelaide

In-Home Puppy Training for Calm, Confident, Well-Behaved Puppies

Bringing home a puppy is exciting — but it can also feel exhausting, overwhelming, and nothing like you imagined.

Between the puppy biting, toilet accidents, barking, zoomies, pulling on the lead, chewing everything in sight, and sleepless nights, many puppy owners feel stressed and unsure if they’re “doing it right.”

At Paws & Reward, our Private Puppy School gives you personalised one-on-one support to help you raise a calm, confident, well-mannered family dog — without outdated methods, harsh corrections, or confusing advice from the internet.

We come to your home and help you with the real-life challenges you’re actually facing.

Whether you’re preparing your puppy for family life, wanting help with difficult behaviours, or simply wanting the best possible start, we’ll guide you every step of the way.

Why Choose Private Puppy Training?

Unlike group puppy classes, private puppy training is completely tailored to your puppy, your home, and your lifestyle.

This means we can work on the things that matter most to you, including:

  • Puppy biting and nipping

  • Toilet training

  • Jumping on people

  • Walking nicely on lead

  • Recall and focus

  • Settling calmly at home

  • Crate training

  • Confidence building

  • Preventing reactivity

  • Appropriate socialisation

  • Barking and overexcitement

  • Children and puppies

  • Multi-pet households

  • Alone-time training

  • Building calm behaviour around visitors

We also help you understand why your puppy behaves the way they do, so training feels easier, clearer, and less frustrating.

Not Sure Whether Private Training or Puppy Classes Are Right for You?

Private training is ideal for families wanting personalised support, flexible scheduling, or help with specific challenges at home.

If you’re looking for a small group puppy course instead, our Puppy College classes are a fantastic option for puppies aged 3–9 months.
