Puppy Kindergarten- $130 for 8 Sessions 

Recommended age 2 - 4 months - Maximum 10 dogs per class

 

 Your dog is ready to learn when at a very young. Even puppies who are 10 or 12 weeks old can learn to sit and shake paws. At this age your teaching should be gentle and fun. We offer training and socialization classes for pups who are as young as 8 weeks old. This is great socialization where pups learn to play well with all kinds of other dogs. Here they learn from each other! Things like bite inhibition is SO important, and so is setting your best foot forward now and establishing sound leadership and safe, responsible socialization with your new dog, right from the start. 

We will help you address 'growing pain' issues, and explain puppy development and how imprinting works. Every session, we will have a Q&A period to help you along, and prepare for the year ahead!
