How to train a Lab puppy?

By · Updated

Short answer

Use short, reward-based sessions daily. Start with name, sit, come and crate manners in weeks 8–12. AVSAB supports starting socialization classes as early as 7–8 weeks with at least one vaccine set. Keep sessions fun and end before the puppy gets tired.
