The Puppy Roadmap from Got Sit Dog Training San Diego is for Escondido families who want to get it right from the start.

FREE CONSULTATION IN ESCONDIDO
Escondido dogs hike Daley Ranch and the Dixon Lake trails where coyotes and rattlesnakes are part of the landscape, stretch out at Kit Carson Park, and walk Grand Avenue on Friday nights when the classic cars and crowds roll in. Those are the places your puppy will live in, so we introduce them on purpose. Each Escondido session adds a little more noise, more people and more dogs, at a pace your puppy can handle.
Escondido dogs are lucky: Daley Ranch and Dixon Lake offer miles of trails, Kit Carson Park has room to roam, and Grape Day Park sits right downtown. We use these everyday environments to build reliable, real-world manners, so your dog is as well-behaved on a busy trailhead as in your own backyard.
Housing runs from older ranch homes and apartments near downtown to 1980s and 90s subdivisions in the hills and large lots with room for horses and chickens in the north and east of the city. Whatever your Escondido home looks like, a puppy will test every rule in it. We help you decide the rules early, teach them clearly and keep them consistent.
Common puppy problems we fix in Escondido: nipping and mouthing, accidents in the house, crying in the crate, jumping on kids, chewing furniture and pulling on the leash from the first walk.
Got Sit San Diego serves Downtown Escondido, Hidden Meadows, Jesmond Dene, Felicita and the rest of Escondido with puppy training. Escondido sits at the junction of Interstate 15 and Highway 78, and we often pair it with San Marcos, Valley Center and Rancho Bernardo.

GET STARTED
Four ways in, one method. Every program starts with private lessons in your home and is proofed in the real world with your trainer. We recommend one after the free consultation, not before.
For the young dog. Private lessons at home set the foundation, then real-world sessions as your puppy grows so good habits survive the teenage months.
Puppy trainingThe program everything else is built on. Private in-home lessons that graduate into real-world work, from kindergarten through university.
Obedience trainingBoard and train. Your dog stays with a trainer to build the foundation, then you take over a dog that already understands the language.
Board and trainFor fearful, confused, reactive or aggressive dogs. Clear leadership and a stronger bond so your dog can handle stress calmly.
Behavioral trainingEvery program we teach in Escondido, from the first puppy lesson to advanced off-leash work.

What Escondido dog owners ask us before the first lesson. Anything else, ask during your free in-home consultation.
Yes. The Puppy Roadmap starts with private lessons in your Escondido home, because that is where the habits form. Your trainer works with the whole family so the puppy hears the same words from everyone. As the puppy grows, sessions move outside.
Yes, and the sooner the better. Nipping and chewing are normal puppy behaviors that become problems when nobody redirects them. We show you how to respond the moment it happens, what to offer instead and how to set up your Escondido home so the furniture survives.
That is a big part of the Puppy Roadmap. Socialization is not just meeting other dogs, it is calm exposure to people, noises, surfaces and traffic around Escondido. Your trainer plans those introductions at the right pace so your puppy grows into a confident adult.
