The first 16 weeks of a puppy’s life are hugely important in shaping the adult dog they become. Puppy pre-school focuses on helping puppies through their critical socialisation period, as well as teaching them important life skills and all the basic commands they need to be the best boys and girls they can be!
Many owners think they have to wait until their new pups are fully vaccinated before commencing training and taking them out but this is not the case! Puppy school is run indoors in a carefully controlled environment and disinfected with F10 disinfectant to prevent spread of disease. All puppy’s should have had their 1st vaccination at 6 weeks of age which is all they need to attend school and begin their training journey.

If your pup is a little older (18 weeks and over), then the Obedience classes might be better suited. Click here to go to the Dog Training page.
