Puppy Kindergarten

Start training your puppy early!  There is no time like the present to get your puppy off to a great start in becoming a well behaved member of your family.  For puppies 8-16 weeks of age.  We address puppy raising issues like, biting, chewing, jumping, and housebreaking and cover foundation behaviors like sit, down, leash walking and coming when called.  The emphasis is on socialization, so bring the whole family!
