Malinois Raise & Train
Our Puppy Raise & Train will help you through the most challenging parts of bringing a new puppy home.
Training your malinois is critical to having a well-rounded sport or working dog. If you don’t take the time to train your puppy correctly in the early stages, you will have consequences to deal with later on in your dog’s life. Many people don’t have the time to train a young puppy properly. The puppy then develops bad habits that become very difficult to control when the puppy is an adult.
Our Puppy Raise & Train program is a new program that gives you and your companion the head start you need for a long and lasting relationship. This program is for the puppies we have bred; training begins at 8 weeks. In this program, they are raised like the puppies we keep for ourselves.


Comprehensive Puppy Training
Living and Learning with Professionals 24/7
At Endeavour K9, the puppies in the Raise & Train program live with the trainers 24/7 for your chosen program. This gives the puppy the best start because they live in an environment mimicking real life. They are under the direction of a professional who understands dog behaviour and training.

Endeavour Training
Raise & Train Program
There isn’t anything much cuter than a puppy, but cute may not be much comfort at 2 a.m. when your newest family member is screaming in his crate, and you have to take them outside in the winter in your PJs, and you have to be at work in a few hours.
Chewing, soiling on carpets, chasing them around, finding out what is in their mouth, and multiple potty breaks throughout the day are common issues with new puppies.
During their time with us, we will (depending on your program) introduce:
- How to actively engage with their owners
- How to quickly and reliably return when called even with distractions
- Learn what are and what are not appropriate chew items.
- Learn not to bite or nip people
- How to greet and respect guests and strangers
- How to relax while in the house
- How to be obedient and attentive to their owners in a variety of situations
- Crate training
- Body Handling, grooming
- Be exposed to new people, places and things
- Learn basic house manners and boundaries
- Gain an understanding of commands, such as “sit,” “down,” “come,” “go to bed”, and walking on a leash.
- Foot targets, rear-end awareness and boxwork
- And much more!
Any puppies not sold by 8 weeks will start this program. They will be taught commands in German with IGP foundations. Including protection and tracking (weather permitting)
