Puppy Training in Westlake Village
Start Your Puppy Off on the Right Paw
Puppyhood is the perfect time to build the foundation for a happy, confident, well-mannered dog.
Laura Bourhenne specializes in helping puppies get started on the right track using positive reinforcement and science-based training. Her goal isn't simply to teach your puppy a list of commands—it's to help you raise a dog who knows how to make good choices and enjoys learning with you.
Manners Are More Important Than Commands
Laura focuses on teaching the life skills and manners that help puppies become wonderful family companions—learning to settle, greet people politely, walk nicely on leash, chew appropriate things, respond to their name, and make good choices in everyday situations.
At this age, these skills become the foundation for good behavior throughout your dog's life.
Build Confidence & Your Relationship
Puppies are constantly learning about the world. Laura helps them develop confidence through positive experiences while teaching them how to navigate new people, places, sounds, and situations.
Most importantly, puppy training is about building a relationship.
When your puppy learns that listening to you, communicating with you, and making good choices leads to positive experiences, you create a partnership that can last a lifetime.
Give Your Puppy the Best Possible Start
The habits you teach your puppy today can shape the dog they become tomorrow.
Whether you're bringing home a new puppy or already finding puppyhood a little challenging, Laura can help you build the foundation for good manners, confidence, communication, and a wonderful relationship with your dog.

“For many years, Laura has long been a sterling example of how we can promote kindness and compassion in the world by demonstrating the link between how we treat animals and how we treat one another. Scientific training rooted in empathy, experience rooted in wisdom... Laura is the real deal.”
