Dog Training Classes
Beginning Skills for Dogs and Puppies 18 Weeks & Older
I have a puppy over 18 weeks; is this the class for me?
Yes! This is the the place to start. The curriculum is very similar to our PUP1 series, but for adolescent puppies (yes, your puppy is beginning their adolescent years at 18 weeks!) and adult dogs. We will address all the basic commands, manners and distraction training, all while providing guidance for any challenging doggie habits you may be dealing with at home.
An adolescent dog can be a joy, but let’s face it: there are moments when you’ll wonder what to do with your young dog’s boundless energy. Whether you’ve just adopted your dog, or perhaps haven’t started training your puppy yet, our award winning instructors will support you through any difficulties and inspire you with success!
I have an older dog that has never taken any classes; is this the class for me?
Yes! Learning is fun at any age. If you have a beloved dog that you’ve never trained, or a newly adopted dog, training is exciting no matter what age he or she is.
