Now. Seriously, dogs learn great at any age, its easier on the human for them to start young, before they have learned bad manners and are too large to control. Good luck!
*i’ve tried clicker training and it works wonders!*

u want to start training asap because it’ll give the pup less time to develop bad habits. i’m not really a dog expert but most beings learn the most in the first few months of life and are able to soak in the most information. training right away will keep Puppy more occupied and interested so he/she is less likely to chew up every shoe u own out of boredom.

Yep, any age (unless we are talking only a few weeks old — infants). Puppies learn incredibly fast. Start!

puppies can begin training at a very young age, even learning to sit at the age of 3months. Though, you will find that most professional trainers like to start training heavily from the age of 5months to a year and a half. Personally, I find training from the ages 6months to a year to work very well.
Hope this helps,

You can start clicker training your puppy as soon as you bring them home. Of course sessions should be very short (2-5 minutes. Find a good puppy training class or buy a good book on the subject.
The breeder I got my puppies from (I have littermates) started their clicker training sessions before I got them at 8 weeks! Just be patient and positive reinforcement only please! Good luck and have fun.
