Puppy Kindegarten / Socialization

This class is recommended for puppies between the ages of 9 weeks old to 6 months old. If you have a larger breed we recommend you start by 9-10 weeks old, and usually no later than 4 months old. Smaller breeds are often more comfortable starting classes between 3-6 months of age.

Puppy class concentrates on basic manners skills, and also encourages socialization with the other puppies and class members, as well as children. An obstacle course is set up one evening to build confidence as well as fun, fun, fun! We are here to answer your training questions as your puppy developes into a young adult.

This is a stepping stone before beginner class which requires dogs to concentrate & focus for longer periods of time.
