Puppy Class PDF Print E-mail

Puppy class is essential to the behavioral development of puppies. Our puppy class teaches your puppy important life skills like impulse control, bite inhibition, meeting novel stimuli with confidence, and how to communicate with us politely. Those lessons are taught using positive reinforcement based methods like clicker training to create an effective, efficient and fun communication system that both you and your dog can understand with ease.

By starting off on the right paw with your puppy you can avoid behavior problems that may develop due to lack of socialization and training. Not only will your dog learn to respond to cues like 'sit', 'down' and 'stay'. They will also learn how to walk politely, greet people without jumping and leave objects alone that are not chew toys!
