Experts agree that the first 5 months of your puppy's life are the most important.
Experiences that happen to your puppy during this time (both good and bad) have a lasting effect. Impromptu playgroups
or dog parks can be unhealthy and scary. Why not come to Puppy K to socialize and train your puppy in a clean, safe environment.
Among the topics covered are: housetraining, puppy biting, puppy safety, puppies and children. Among the skills taught are
sit, down, come when called, walking nicely on leash.
We give you the tools to successfully integrate your puppy into the family. In addition to the techniques
you learn in class, you take home an informative, family-friendly how-to book.
