Now would be a fine time to start. I started with Natalie as soon as I got her at 7 wks old. I started with the basics like sit, lay down and give paw.

As nern mentioned, start now!!! Your the best

I started with training as soon as my pups came home, then a couple weeks later they started puppy classes!

Have fun & good luck! Very Happy
