We will be holding some puppy meetings during the time period between our current class ending, November 5th, and the beginning of next session in early January. Since the time period when puppies benefit most from social exposure is so short, we want to be sure that you have the opportunity to get your pups out in a safe environment.
Be sure to add your name to the wait list if you would like to be notified of our special holiday classes!
This puppy class is for puppies that have started their DHPP vaccinations and are at least of 10 weeks and under 6 months of age on the first day of class.
The main goal of this class is to provide a safe, unfamiliar training environment that includes other dogs, people and equipment, so you can learn how to expose your puppy to new and different things while you train them to respond to you! This helps develop confidence and the ability to cope with new and unfamiliar situations that your puppy will encounter throughout his life.
This class can help your pup learn the skill of self-control so they will learn good dog manners and be easy to live with. It will also introduce them to self-calming behavior and for those of you that have excitable puppies, this is a fantastic skill to develop.
We will introduce training techniques for good manners when greeting people and begin some basic obedience skills.
This class IS NOT for pups that have many hours of dog park interactions and have become unmanageable in a group situation. Those pups will need individual instruction.
The cost is $120 for the four week session.
