One of the most important and beneficial things that you can do as a puppy owner is to attend a well run puppy class/ or lessons. Don't leave it too late, puppies learn incredibly quickly and early classes are beneficial in that it allows them to build social skills with people and other puppies/dogs in a controlled, safe and secure environment as well as learning all the basics of training.

Puppies are able to join a class when they are cleared by the vet after their final injection usually around 12 weeks. We cover temperament training, basic commands on cue such as sit, down, stand etc. The classes are designed to be fun, relaxed and enjoyable both for the puppy and the owner.

To quote from Dr. Ian Dunbar;

“In reality, all aspects of obedience training may be accompanied at any time in the dog's life. Temperament problems, however, MUST be prevented during puppy hood.”
