About Puppy Intelligence
Puppy-focused, home-based board-and-train
Puppy Intelligence is a specialized board-and-train program run by a trainer named Rose, deliberately conducted in a home environment. As the site explains, "Our puppies are trained in a home setting in order to replicate where they will live," which is meant to make the skills transfer more easily once the puppy goes home. The training philosophy is framed around relationship and trust, described as "a power enabled by trust through love and dedicated training."
Clear programs and pricing
The offering is unusually transparent about structure and cost: a 2-week Basic Puppy School at $2,000, a 4-week Preferred program at $4,000, and additional advanced weeks at $1,000 each. Training content includes "crate training, potty training, leash training, and up to five basic commands such as sit, lie down, come." Owners get weekly video and photo updates and a personalized training summary at completion, plus optional pickup, delivery, and boarding. The site displays an AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator logo. This is a strong fit for owners of new puppies who want intensive early foundation work handled for them rather than weekly classes.

The most amazing thing about George is his temperament and disposition! He was loved on so much and so well socialized at Puppy Intelligence, he’s just wonderful with people. He is so loving, calm, obedient, sweet and docile. All dogs are different, but I owe a lot of this to Rose and how she treats the animals in her care. I KNOW George was in a safe, loving home while he was a puppy student. I completely trust Rose and her team.
Rose is wonderful at sending videos and pictures along the way. Rose is also very busy and focused on the dogs she’s training (which is a wonderful thing!) so don’t expect a response right away. She can only take so many dogs at once, so I was lucky to have George enrolled!
Rose is so kind and supportive. Once George came home, she’s been very helpful with post-puppy school care. If I have questions or concerns about George, she’s been amazing at addressing them. She’s also great at building me up as we have success with George at home.
I can’t say enough good things about Puppy Intelligence. I am so grateful to Rose and her team. If you want your dog to be trained by absolute PROS, in a warm and loving environment, then Puppy Intelligence is the way to go!
Once we got home, it only took about three days for him to fully adjust. He was ringing the bells to go outside, which was incredible to see. The crate training and potty training were both excellent.
He also knew several commands, especially “sit,” which was solid and consistent. He sits before getting food, going outside, or doing just about anything—it has made such a difference in our daily routine.
Rose did a wonderful job, and I highly recommend Puppy Intelligence.

P.S. We were watching Molly’s videos on YouTube with her and she kept looking for Mrs. Rose.
