- Socialization with exposure to different situations, people and other dogs
- Intro to basic obedience including sit, down, recall, and loose leash walking
- Fun play times!
Puppy Academy runs weekly and the more weeks your puppy can attend, the more they’ll benefit from consistent training and socialization opportunities.
Doggie Day School
Doggie Day School focuses on obedience training with some socialization. Your dog’s day school experiences will include:
- Basic obedience (sit, down, loose leash walking, impulse control, recall and more – the exercises become more challenging as your dog moves up through our levels)
- Socialization (exposure to dogs, humans, and new situations including public outings as your dog levels up)
- Fun play times as appropriate for your dog
Doggie Day School comes in packages of 3, 4 or 5 per week. The more weeks your dog can attend, the more they will advance (and the more well-behaved they will be!) We also offer advanced and specialty training programs for dogs who complete our basic obedience program, including, but not limited to, Canine Good Citizen preparation (a must for aspiring therapy dogs!) and off leash training. Call today to find out details about our Doggie Day School options.
