Australian Shepherd Puppy Training Program
If you’re looking for an Australian Shepherd puppy training program in Wisconsin, you may be wondering what it would look like to bring home a puppy that already has a strong start.
At Match Dot Pup, we offer optional training programs that allow puppies to stay longer and continue developing before going home.
Because of that, families can begin with a puppy who already understands structure, routine, and expectations.
🐾 This program is designed for companion homes and is available in limited spots.
Why Families Choose Additional Puppy Training
Bringing home a young puppy is exciting—but it can also feel overwhelming.
Because of that, some families choose to continue their puppy’s development before bringing them home.
For families working with us here in Wisconsin, this program allows puppies to continue developing before going home.
With additional training, puppies are given more time to build consistency, develop focus, and better understand expectations.
As a result, the transition into your home feels more manageable.
A Structured Approach to Continued Puppy Training
Our Australian Shepherd puppy training program in Wisconsin builds on the early foundation already in place.
Instead of starting over, puppies continue with structured routines that reinforce what they’ve already learned.
Because of that, they gain clarity, confidence, and consistency as they grow.
Puppy Training Program Options
We offer two levels within our Australian Shepherd puppy training program in Wisconsin, allowing families to choose how much development takes place before their puppy comes home.
Rather than starting from the beginning, these programs allow you to continue from a foundation already in place.
This Australian Shepherd puppy training program in Wisconsin focuses on building consistency and real-life skills.
Level 1 Puppy Training (8–12 Weeks)
Level 1 focuses on building a strong early foundation during the critical first weeks of development.
Graduates of Level 1 are introduced to and begin working consistently with key commands and everyday skills, including:
- watch me
- sit
- down
- stay
- come/recall
- leash manners
- touch
- polite greetings (no jumping)
- crate and confinement conditioning
- grooming introduction
- socialization with dogs, people, and other animals
Because of that, puppies begin to understand expectations, develop confidence, and respond more consistently.
🐾 This level is ideal for families who want a smoother, more prepared start.
Cost: $950 (in addition to puppy price)
Level 2 Advanced Puppy Training (3–5 Months)
Level 2 builds on the foundation established in Level 1 and focuses on strengthening consistency, reliability, and real-life application.
Graduates of Level 2 are expected to confidently respond to all Level 1 commands using verbal cues and some hand signals, while also maintaining control positions for a minimum of 30 seconds.
In addition to reinforcing Level 1 skills, puppies continue developing with:
- heel
- wait
- stand
- leave it
- place
- loose-leash walking
Conditioning at this level also includes continued development in:
- polite greetings (no jumping)
- crate and confinement conditioning
- travel introduction
- grooming completion
- socialization with dogs, people, and other animals
Because of that, puppies gain stronger focus, improved reliability, and greater confidence in a variety of environments.
🐾 This level prepares puppies for the Canine Good Citizen certification and is ideal for families who want a more advanced, well-started companion.
Cost: $1,250 (in addition to puppy price)
Both training levels are optional and designed for companion homes.
Because this program requires additional time and structure, availability is limited. It’s best to mention your interest early in the process.
When you bring home a puppy from our Australian Shepherd puppy training program in Wisconsin, you’re not starting at the beginning.
Instead, you’re continuing from a foundation that has already been built.
Because of that, families often notice smoother transitions, better focus, and more confidence.
🐾 It’s not just about training—it’s about setting both you and your puppy up for success.
Is This the Right Fit for You?
This program is ideal for families who want:
- a more prepared puppy
- a smoother transition
- early structure already in place
However, it’s not required.
Because of that, we’ll help guide you toward what makes the most sense for your situation.
