Why should all puppies go to school?

Before five months of age much of your puppy’s personality has already been determined, so it is very important to begin a class prior to this age. Early puppyhood is a critical time for socialization and learning as this period will set the stage for the rest of your puppy’s life. This is the ideal time to show your puppy how to confidently relate to other puppies, unfamiliar people, and strange sights, sounds, and events. The right training at this age will help them learn to adapt to the world around them and feel at ease. Here veterinary behaviorist, Dr. Lisa Radosta, talks about the importance of proper puppy socialization.

 

What will your Puppy learn in class?

There are no more than 8 puppy participants per instructor in each session. During the five-week program we cover the following:

• Basic obedience to get your pup focused and following your direction using positive reinforcement and rewards (we never use scary or harmful punishment!).
• Problem solving to make short work of housetraining, and to stop your puppy from using you– and your furniture– as a chew toy.
• Problem prevention to ensure your pup grows into an adult dog you can truly enjoy– friendly, relaxed, well behaved, and fun.
• Off-leash puppy play to teach critical dog-dog socialization and communication skills.
• Important skills such as bite inhibition (developing a soft mouth). Your pup will learn to control biting by playing with dogs his age.
• Appropriate games to play with your puppy that are both fun and teach your puppy self control.
