Good questions
Before you begin.
Is a stay too early at eight weeks?
Most trainers prefer an older puppy. Ask the trainer for guidance and talk to your veterinarian.
Would lessons be better?
Lessons keep you involved from the start. A stay might suit a tight schedule.
Will my puppy bond with me?
Yes. Dogs bond through daily care at home, and the handoff helps.
Is socializing part of it?
Ask how the trainer introduces new sights and sounds gently.
