Why Attend our Puppy Preschool?
We employ positive reinforcement training techniques within the safe, supportive, and social setting of our puppy classes. Small class sizes mean it is easier for individual puppies to learn, for you as owners to have questions answered specifically about your own pup and also to achieve all your owner/pup training goals in a clinic-approved, clean and safe environment.
Key Aspects of Puppy Preschool
Puppy preschools combine useful training with vital early socialisation to expose puppies to various new stimuli, people and other dogs in a controlled environment. This will build your puppy’s confidence and reduce anxiety. Puppy obedience includes fundamental training exercises such as the ‘sit’, ‘stay’, ‘come’, and a calm ‘walk’ on the lead. We also offer guidance on a range of common behaviour management issues, including how to address problem areas such as biting, chewing, barking, and house training. You will receive tips on nutrition, routine healthcare and fun, stimulating ways to enrich your puppy’s life.
Course Information
The puppy training classes are designed for puppies 6-16 weeks old with up-to-date vaccinations. The classes typically consist of several weeks and a duration of about one hour per session. Details regarding costs and any concessions are discussed when booking your spot.
What to Expect During a Class
There is a balance of demonstrations and practical exercises conducted at puppy preschool sessions so the puppies and the owners can learn at their own pace. Guidance will be given for basic puppy training commands like ‘sit’, ‘drop’, and ‘stay’ exercises, and there will be play time structured so the puppies can learn how to safely and happily interact with one another. Simple tasks and resources for learning to practice these exercises at home will be provided. A good balance of learning at home and training class makes a well-behaved and happy dog.
Benefits of Puppy Preschool
The rewards of attending puppy preschool are substantial, both for your puppy and for you as an owner. Your puppy will gain vital social skills, learn good behaviour, and build confidence, especially with vet nurses and handling situations. You, as the owner, will gain invaluable insights and simple tools that will allow you to manage any behavioural issues with your pet, build a rewarding relationship with your companion and ensure a well-behaved adult dog.
Bonus Perks
Further advantages are often inclusive in a class, including a veterinary health check for your puppy with one of our vets, help sheets to bring home to further your training with your companion, and graduation certificates are often issued.
