Have a fuzzy bundle of fur and energy on your hands? If so, our New Puppy Socialization Class is for you! This 4-week class caters specifically to pups 10 weeks through 5 months of age. It focuses on puppy play time, proper puppy body language, learning how to safely socialize your pup, managing common puppy behaviors, calming and focus techniques, and a few basic obedience skills.

This class is designed to work with puppies' short attention spans and allows for play breaks and down time. Each hour-long class includes a discussion on topics such as nipping/biting, potty training, crate training, controlled play, and more. This is a great class for first-time puppy owners and as a refresher for experienced owners.

If you are interested in training two or more dogs, whether they are litter mates or just house mates, please sign them up individually. We recommend attending individually rather than in the same class to build confidence independently and to learn to rely on you instead of their pack mate/s.

Please note: classes held indoors (Jan-March) allow 1 parent per puppy, and everyone must wear a mask. Additional people may attend our outdoor classes (April+) and events.

Please continue socializing your puppy by signing up for our puppy playgroups! Check for upcoming playgroups under the Workshops tab in your MindBody account.
