At Companion Animal Veterinary Hospital, we're dedicated to providing the best foundation for your puppy's socialisation and training journey. Our five-week Puppy Preschool program, held at Companion Animal Veterinary Hospital, offers a safe and controlled environment for you and your furry friend to learn the essentials of positive, rewards-based training methods and socialisation. With our qualified trainers by your side, you'll acquire the skills needed to help your puppy become a well-adjusted, confident, and sociable member of your family.
Why is Socialisation Important?
Socialisation is a critical aspect of raising a well-balanced and well-behaved dog. During the first few months of a puppy's life, they are highly receptive to new experiences. This is the ideal time to expose them to various people, animals, and situations. Early exposure helps prevent the development of behavioural issues such as aggression or fearfulness and lays the foundation for a lifetime of positive interactions with others.
Puppy Preschool: A Comprehensive Five-Week Course
Our Puppy Preschool program comprises five weekly sessions, each lasting one hour and focusing on specific aspects of training and socialisation. The first session is puppy-free, allowing you to gain essential knowledge and understanding before introducing your puppy to the class.
What's Included:
- Five-week course with five 1-hour evening sessions (1st week is puppy-free)
- Classes limited to a maximum of six pups, ensuring personalised attention for you and your dog
- Graduation certificate to celebrate your puppy's successful completion of the program
Where and When?
Classes are held at Companion Animal Veterinary Hospital on Tuesday nights (occasionally Thursday nights), providing a convenient and comfortable setting for you and your puppy to learn and grow.
During the five-week course, you and your puppy will:
- Master Basic Obedience Skills: Learn essential commands, such as sit, stay, and come, using positive, rewards-based training methods.
- Develop Leash Manners: Teach your puppy to walk confidently and calmly on a leash without pulling or lunging.
- Foster Safe Socialisation: Learn how to help your puppy interact safely and appropriately with other dogs and people.
- Build Confidence: Our program will help your puppy develop the confidence to face various situations, making them a more adaptable and resilient pet.
- Strengthen the Human-Animal Bond: Puppy Preschool not only benefits your puppy but also helps to strengthen the bond between you and your furry companion.
