Why Puppy School

Enrolling your puppy in school provides lasting benefits that go beyond the basics.  

Benefits of Puppy Preschool

Builds Confidence - Helps puppies feel secure in new situations

Teaches Manners & Obedience - Establishes polite behavior and good habirs

Prevents Issues Early - Reduces the risk of problem behaviors developing later

Early training sets the stage for a lifetime of success!

**Sessions run Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
We keep our groups small so every pup gets plenty of personalized attention. Enrollment is rolling, but spots are limited! Each program is structured like school, and enrolled pups are expected to attend all three days (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday). Please note that missed sessions can’t be made up or credited due to the high demand for this program.
