I can't seem to get my animal trainer to do anything. Migrant adept trainer showed up to my fort so I figured I'd give it a go. Animal training is the only active skill. I designated a puppy in a pasture to be trained. The puppy is the offspring of two war dogs and they're all pastured together at the fort entrance. I marked the pasture for animal training and set the puppy to be trained in the animal list.
My trainer just socializes constantly and after atwo seasons has t done anything yet.
Is there something I'm missing? Do I need to cage the puppy, or is it only trainable once it grows up?

puppies cannot be trained. When it grows to an adult aged dog, it can be trained as a war dog or hunting dog.

Thanks! I thought that might be the case, but couldn't find anything on the Wiki or the forums.
Is that because they're already tame/domesticated? Or are all baby/child animals untrainable?

Its because they're domesticated, any domesticated animal does not need training in order to be tame.  But if you caught a wild animal, whether grown adult or child, it would need training to become tame.
