Puppy Kindergarten
& Training Camp Details
As California’s premier Goldendoodle breeder, we have proven success with our puppy kindergarten and training services.
At Windsong, education begins at Day One. We believe that a premier puppy should be mentored with intention from their very first breath. Our Puppy Kindergarten is a gentle, praise-based program designed to mitigate "puppy shenanigans" before they ever begin. This residency is the ideal choice for busy families or city dwellers who want a "Parvo-ready" companion that is fully vaccinated and ready for urban strolls. What truly sets our Academy apart is our 100% home-based approach. Your puppy never enters a facility; instead, they transition from our living room directly into the private home of one of our professional trainers.
Because of our high enrollment, your puppy is almost always paired with a littermate for their residency, providing a soulful sense of sibling comfort during the transition. Once they arrive, they are immediately integrated into a vibrant family life, learning from older dogs and children in a real-world environment. While other programs utilize traumatizing kennel situations, we ensure your puppy moves from one loving home to another. This intensive socialization is the key to our proven success in raising confident companions that thrive as therapy and service dogs. Whether you need a turnkey best friend or a scholar ready for service work, we are here to ensure your "Golden Life" starts on the right foot.

2-Week: The Essentials
Our 2-week school is the perfect 'bridge' from our living room to yours. We spend 14 intentional days helping your puppy move past the initial homesickness of leaving their littermates while getting a major head start on crate confidence and potty foundations. We do the early heavy lifting of winning those first few nights, so you can skip the 'survival mode' and focus entirely on the soulful connection of your first week home.
-
4-Week: Puppy Prep
The goal of these four weeks is to build a rock-solid foundation for your puppy before they ever leave our arms. We focus on the most important stuff—like crate training, potty routines, and their very first manners—so they are already used to 'house rules' by the time they get to your living room. It gives you a massive head start and makes that first month of puppy parenting way more about snuggles and way less about the chaos.
-
9-Week: Ready-for-Home
We designed these nine weeks to be a total game-changer for your family. Our goal is to send home a puppy that isn't just cute, but is also smart and steady. By the time they graduate, they’ll be pros at sleeping in their crate and following all their first basic commands, which means you get to spend your first week home actually enjoying your 'Teddy Bear' instead of worrying about the rules."

The Virtual Academy
Our virtual school brings all of our nursery secrets and training videos directly to your screen. It’s a lifetime pass for your whole family, giving you the exact tools and guides you need to help your 'Teddy Bear' thrive at your own pace, right from your own living room. We’ve made it easy to follow along so you can feel 100% confident as you build that soulful connection at home.
