Puppy Play Group!

puppyDescription (for puppies 6 month and UNDER): 
Puppy play is incredibly important for young puppies and adolescent dogs.  This is where they learn important life skills such as how to engage in appropriate play, calming signals, conflict management/resolution and bite inhibition.  These are valuable skills that your puppy will use throughout his life that will help him be successful and social with other dogs.  Once puppies reach a certain age—around 4 to 6 months—their ability to easily accept new experiences begins to wane. For this reason, we promote early and positive socialization.

Puppy play group is a semi-structured play session where puppies are allowed off-leash free play with other pups their age. In puppy play group we talk a little bit about appropriate puppy play and discuss when owners should be worried about rough play and when they should let it play out. At some points, if time permits, we also work on socialization with strangers and children.  We do not work on commands or obedience in this class.

Sign Up:
There is a limited amount of space in playgroups so we do require you sign up and pay in advance ($7 per Puppy Play Group). If a given class is full, please sign up to come to the next open class. Because we want to be sure that there are enough staff present in order to run a safe, successful play group, drop-ins are not accepted at this time. NOTE: If you register and do not attend we will not be able to reimburse your fee.Thank you.

Vaccination Requirements: 
We require that all puppies have at least their second round of vaccinations before attending class. Please bring proof of current vaccinations to your first class.
