Stage one
The five Bio Sensor exercises in the first two weeks of life and what each one builds.
Stage two
Building auditory and tactile resilience while the windows are open. What to introduce, in what order, and how often.
Stage three
Surfaces, textures, shapes, and the play structures that build a confident problem-solver.
Stage four
Setting the puppy up to land in their new household with crate and leash already a normal, neutral part of life.
Stage five
The handling routine that means the first car ride and first vet visit aren't the puppy's first car ride or first vet visit.
Stage six
How to teach short, calm separations from littermates and dam so handover doesn't break the puppy.
The Good Puppy Blueprint Breeder Partnership means every family you hand a puppy to arrives home with a 9-week training program already set up for them. Your puppies land in households that maintain the careful start you gave them.
