The Perfect Start for Your Puppy

Puppy Class Part One

The priorities of this class are for puppies to gain the socialization they need during this crucial stage of development, and to learn basic manners and skills that are beneficial to everyday life.

Our Puppy group classes are known for their "fun and games" approach for both puppies and their people. This class incorporates short training sessions with structured off-leash play.

Off-leash play allows puppies to teach each other bite inhibition and gain vital socialization skills while owners practice effective communication and learn how to control their puppy in a high distraction setting.
