Welcome, Bunji Families!
My name is Lilly, and I'm the official trainer for Bunji. If your dog is from Bunji Australian Labradoodles, these services are exclusively for you!

Puppy Head Start
How It Works
When your puppy is 8 weeks old, they will be placed into my care by Jen, and I will board and train your puppy in my home. Your puppy will continue crate training and potty training, and also gain new obedience skills with reinforcing calmness! There is very limited space in the program, so make sure to get your application in as early as possible.

Cost: $95/day or $600/week
-
Program length: Programs are available anywhere between 2 weeks and 6 weeks in length.
-
Program Benefits: (Keep in mind there are no guarantees since dogs are living individuals, but this is a pretty good idea of what to expect.)
-
2 Weeks - two weeks' worth of potty training, crate training, and socialization. You will still need to do some heavy lifting when your puppy comes home, but the hardest part will be out of the way!
-
3-4 Weeks - three to four weeks' worth of potty training, crate training, and socialization. There will likely be some work you'll still need to do in all three categories, but the bulk of it will be done. We will also start working on basic commands.
-
5-6 Weeks - five to six weeks' worth of potty training, crate training, and socialization. It is very likely that your puppy will be a rock star in all three categories by the end of the program. They will likely also know all the commands you would learn in your first obedience class.

Board & Train
How It Works
The board & train program is for any Bunjis older than 8 weeks. After you submit your application, I will be in touch within 2 business days to discuss available dates, as well as more specific program details. You will be responsible for transporting your dog to and from my home in West Michigan, and your dog should be healthy and up to date on vaccines.

Program Benefits: (Keep in mind there are no guarantees since dogs are living individuals, but this is a pretty good idea of what to expect.)
-
2 Weeks - In a two week program, we could likely achieve a variety of trained cues, as well as some basic manners. I will also get to know your dog's personality and give my professional advice for at-home training going forward.
-
3-4 Weeks - This is a good length of program if you'd like to add loose leash walking to the 2 week program.
-
5-6 Weeks - This length of program is good for dogs who have multiple bad habits that need to be unlearned and replaced with good ones!
