Puppy Kindy

The first stage in providing education for the life of your dog is the Puppy Kindy Course. This four week course covers a number of puppy pertinent topics including:

• the continued socialisation of puppies with people
• the therapeutic socialisation of puppies with other puppies
• development of bite inhibition and a soft mouth
• introduction to basic manners such as: sit, drop and recall
• discussion of puppy specific issues such as household etiquette, attention seeking behaviours, appropriate chew toys and handling techniques

The Puppy Kindy course is designed to prepare clients for successful involvement in our Advanced Puppy and Companion Dog Life-Skills courses. Classes are held in a safe, enclosed training environment. The attached programme is intended as an outline only. Each puppy and owner combination is unique and the programme is designed to be modified based on the clients needs.

Details are as follows:

• Puppies of all breeds aged 8 to 16 weeks
• Owners please bring vaccination certificate to initial class (first puppy vaccination only required)
• Children and family members are encouraged to attend
