Description
This class is for puppies 2 thru 6 months old, a critical socialization period for dogs. Puppies exposed to new sights, sounds, surfaces, and people during this time are more able to handle new situations with confidence for the rest of their lives. In this class we will present puppies with new experiences as well as teach basic puppy manners including “paying attention to you”, “sit”, “down”, “recall”, “loose leash walking”, “wait” and how to greet people and other dogs appropriately. A positive reward based approached is used.
