Every Sunday at 4:30 PM

Instructor: Jenn Stellbrink, BSc, KPA-CTP, Certified Puppy Start Right Preschool Instructor, Fear Free Certified

Proper socialization is extremely important for puppies under 16 weeks of age. Studies show that positive exposure to puppies, people, handling, novel items and sounds can prevent behavior concerns. Unfortunately, getting your puppy into a socialization class at the right time can be a challenge.

We've created a solution with continuous enrollment

Puppies under 16 weeks of age can start class right away, depending on availability
Puppies continue attending weekly classes until they reach adolescence
Once puppies reach adolescence, they are eligible to sign up for Basic Manners Classes
This customized approach ensures that your puppy experiences positive socialization exactly when it's needed
