Puppy Education
This is a one-time, 2 hour class for puppies aged 9-16 weeks.
This class is for puppy families to learn how a dog really thinks, physical & emotional development, how to socialize your puppy properly to people, dogs & noises, how to recognize the signs of stress in your dog and how to get your puppy's life started on the right paw!
Activities in class will be taught by the “lure and reward” method, as well as the use of verbal reward and non-reward markers. You and your puppy will learn to pay attention to each other!
