Rearing With Puppy Culture

This renowned & progressive program was developed by Jane Killion a professional dog trainer and breeder.


It is a comprehensive and organized program for breeders to follow during the first weeks of development in a puppy’s life. This time period covers the first 12 weeks. It has the greatest impact for social development, making it a very important and impressionable time for the pups and handler alike. 


There are key developmental stages to capture including the Prenatal, Neonatal, Transitional, and Critical period. These stages address early exposure to communication, emotional stability, habitation, enrichment, health, skills and love.
