Age: On the start date of class, pups must be between 12-18 weeks old.
There is no prerequisite for this class, This class is $130 for five consecutive weekly sessions, unless a break is mentioned. Each session is approximately 50 minutes and will meet on the same day and time each week. Puppies who do not have all their shots must be carried into the classroom.

Puppy 2 Class
18 to 24 weeks
We will continue to concentrate on housetraining (Potty Training, Chew Toy Training Crate Training) so your pup learns how to behave at home when left unsupervised and settle down quietly when you want them to.
We continue to work on confidence building (Socialization, Desensitization, Handling, Resolving Phobias) So your pup learns to enjoy being held and handled and does not become fearful, reactive, or aggressive towards any people, animals, or other stimuli. Review of Lure Reward Training (Sit, Down, Stand, Come, Follow, Go To Your Bed, Settle Down, Off, Take It, Fetch, Tug and More…) So your pup learns to perform useful behaviors on cue, reliably, and promptly so you can have fun together and redirect your pup away from unwanted behaviors. All of our training is reward-based and designed to build and strengthen a relationship between you and your pup that is based on trust and communication. Initially, we will use food in your pup’s training, but we will also show you how to phase out the need for food lures so you do not become dependent on food for your pup's training.
