Teach your puppy all the basics and learn how to properly socialize your puppy to prevent future behavioral problems.
Socialization is crucial for puppies to develop into well-adjusted adult dogs in a fun and safe environment where they can interact and learn important social skills under careful guidance.
It's okay and encouraged to enroll in class before your puppy finishes his or her 1st series of vaccines, here's why.
**Pre-requisite is Puppy, level 1. You must have attended Puppy, level 1 class to qualify for enrollment AND your pup must still be under the age of one. Puppy, level 2 is geared toward earning the S.T.A.R.Puppy title from the American Kennel Club. A proud achievement indeed!
The S.T.A.R. Puppy test is given at the end of the course.
Agility is a sport that uses different types of jumps and obstacles to traverse through a course. This is a foundations class using a combination of competition and fun-sized equipment where your dog will learn how to navigate each obstacle, build confidence, fitness, focus and impulse control. This class is also great for puppies as it can be tailored for low impact exercise.
Rally (also referred to as Rally-O or Rally Obedience) is a sport in which the dog and handler complete a course that has been designed by the rally judge. The judge tells the handler to begin, and the dog and handler proceed at their own pace through a course of designated stations (10 - 20, depending on the level). Each of these stations has a sign providing instructions regarding the next skill that is to be performed. This is a great way to brush up on your dog's manners and keep in practice for a well-behaved pet.
Trick training is a fun way to bond with your dog and keep them mentally stimulated. You will learn how teach your dog a variety of fun and impressive tricks like roll over, get the mail, and spin. Trick training isn't just for showing off. It's a way to tap into your dog's abilities and interests to engage focus and compliancy and have a great time learning with you! The more your dog learns, the quicker they can learn the next new thing!
