In addition to obedience training, we will also focus on socializing your puppy with other puppies, people, sights, and sounds. Our class expectations are age-appropriate and aimed at providing a fun and positive learning experience for both you and your furry friend.
Please note that puppies must have completed two rounds of vaccinations/shots, including the Bordetella/kennel cough vaccine, before participating in the class. Additionally, must have completed the 2nd series of puppy vaccinations.
