Casual Puppy Class – Sat 27 April 8am

Only 1 left in stock

Puppy classes during the critical socialisation period are vital for healthy development of a puppy. Don’t leave it until your puppy or dog has problems; by then it can be too late. You will never again get such an important period of time in your dogs life; you have approximately 6 weeks to make the most of it (9-12 weeks is ideal). Puppy classes are like the foundations of a house; build them properly and you will prevent problems later on. If problems arise over time then it is much easier to fix a puppy who has strong foundations. Well run puppy classes should develop social skills (not just play but a good balance of appropriate social behaviour). They are critical for developing confidence, basic training and trust. Foundation training is covered but there are a lot of important things to cover in puppy classes so most training commands come later (you can teach an old dog new tricks, but you cannot get the same benefits of socialisation after 16 weeks of age).

Your puppy must have been in its home for 10 days or more & isolated from public places (an essential quarantine period for the safety of your puppy and others in the class). Puppies must have had at least their first vaccination & be up to date & current with vaccinations. If your puppy is over 13weeks or is fully vaccinated and able to go out in public please see the Taming the Teenage Pup course.

The classes are held on a rural private property in Oldbury where only vaccinated dog and puppies are allowed to attend.
