The purpose of this class is to socialize the young puppy (or adult dog with little social experiences) and teach it how to learn in a fun atmosphere. This is not an obedience class but will build the foundation for any activity you may want to undertake with your dog whether it be a loyal companion, conformation, obedience or agility. All training is done in a positive manner. Owners are encouraged to bring treats and toys for their dogs. A rug may also be helpful for the puppy and owner.
