Next Puppy Class Starting : 1/15/25
Our AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Classes are designed to give puppies (2 to 6 months of age) and their owners a great start! This 6-week class covers all your puppy questions from housetraining and puppy nipping and biting to basic obedience and leash skills.
"...to enhance the likelihood that puppies will remain in their first homes, such as enrolling 7- to 12-week-old puppies in early learning and socialization classes. The lower rate of retention of dogs in homes with children emphasizes the importance of helping owners develop realistic expectations, knowledge, and effective tools to manage interactions between their children and dogs."
-- Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association
"Early and adequate socialization and programs of positive training can go a long way to preventing behavior problems and improving bonding between humans and dogs."
- The American Veterinary Society on Animal Behavior
"Research shows that vaccinated puppies attending socialization classes before 16 weeks of age were at no greater risk of CPV infection than vaccinated puppies that did not attend those classes."
- The American Animal Hospital Association
We will start new puppy classes every few weeks on a Monday evening or a Tuesday evening at 6:00 PM. If you are not available for an evening class and need daytime training - that can also be arranged.
