Who is the Puppy Program for?

• Puppies aged 8-20 weeks

    

What can I expect?

• Our puppy program is thoughtfully designed to help guide and support you through this critical developmental stage.

• During the Puppy Program you can expect to learn about:

  • healthy puppy play

  • addressing common misconceptions about socialization

  • Gaining exposure to multiple surfaces, textures, sounds

  • Learning skills to help develop a lifelong love of learning and interacting with the environment

  • Age-appropriate expectations and developmental milestones

• ​Our Puppy Program is uniquely designed so that you can drop into as many or as few classes as you need to get the foundation down pat.

What is Open-Enrolment?

• Open-Enrolment means Start Anytime!

• You start right away and enjoy flexible booking.

• Open-Enrolment also means that there is no wait for the next “start date.” You also do not need to stick to a weekly time slot! 

• Simply sign up and book yourself into the classes that best suit your schedule and change it as often as you need. 

• Classes may be rescheduled any time and if you need more practice in a skill, go ahead and join it again.
