Graduates master basic good manners behaviors: Sit, Down, Wait/Stay, recall (coming when called), loose leash walking, “Go to your mat”, Trade (to exchange a forbidden object), Leave It (to prevent picking up, contacting, or interacting with an undesirable object), and a trick or two, just for fun.

Puppies romp in several sessions of supervised play during the 6 weeks of 1.5 hour classes to teach pups and their owners proper play behavior and appropriate social skills.  One field trip is included, weather permitting.

Pre- Registration is required; however, enrollment is open.  No need to wait for a new class to start.  Pups train at their own level.  Proof of age appropriate vaccinations required prior to first class, for the health and safety of all puppies.

Don’t wait, puppies are learning and developing habits, both good and not-so-good, from their first weeks of life.  Get your best friend off to a great start.
