A new puppy is a highly socialized animal that spends it's waking hours with "Mom" and the rest of the litter. Often overlooked, it's important that they also be socialized with humans, so as to encourage healthy interaction and social skills around people (and other dogs). In the best scenario, a new puppy should be exposed to a wide variety of scenarios with people and other dogs; as much as possible. Puppies that do not receive adequate socialization during this time might develop fearful behavior around people or other dogs when they are fully grown. Click here for more on Puppy Kindergarten.

What is puppy kindergarten?

Puppy Kindergarten is simply another way of looking at the training of your puppy. During this phase they will test to see where they belong in the family and who the boss is. It doesn't matter how sweet they are, this is inevitable. The real issue is that if you try and deal with this like you would a grown k-9, you'll turn your pup off from training. Our Puppy kindergarten program just might be the solution for you.
