Brilliant Puppy Class

Welcome to Brilliant Puppy — a flexible, fun, and foundational class for puppies under 5 months old! 🐾
The first class is a one-on-one orientation with the instructor (without your dog) to help set you and your dog up for success.
Puppies may start at any time, making it easy to jump in when you’re ready. All puppies must have received their first vaccination, but they don’t need to have completed their full vaccine series to attend.

✅ Enrichment activities to support behavioral wellness
✅ Building confidence and focus in a positive, age-appropriate way
Set your puppy up for lifelong success in a safe, supportive environment designed to help them thrive during this critical stage of development.
Puppies enrolled in this class must be friendly with both people and other dogs. This class is not appropriate for puppies who bark, lunge, or display reactive behavior toward other dogs.

Leslie McDevitt’s Control Unleashed program is designed to help dogs that struggle with anxiety, over arousal, or reactivity in stressful environments.
