Got a fuzzy bundle of fur and energy on your hands? If so, our New Puppy Socialization Class is for you! This four-week class caters specifically to pups 10 weeks thru 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 puppy down time. Each hour long class session includes an interactive discussion on various topics, including nipping/biting, potty training, crate training, controlled play, and more. This is great for both first-time puppy owners and as a refresher to experienced owners.

Please Note: If you are interested in training two or more dogs, whether they are litter mates or just house mates, please sign them up for classes or workshops individually. We do not recommend having both dogs in the same class, as they will be more successful building confidence on their own, learning to rely on you, instead of their pack mates.

The classes will meet at 7pm on the following Tuesdays at TobyTown, 2011 Maywill St., Richmond, VA 23230 :
Week 1: 5/17/22
Week 2: 5/24/22
Week 3: 5/31/22
Week 4: 6/7/22 - GRADUATION!!!
