Drop-In Puppy Socialization

Ongoing Class - 30 minute sessions - $10/class or Package of 6 classes for $50

This ongoing drop-in class is available once a week. You can pay per week, or purchase a package, but you are not required to attend consecutive weeks.

Socialization class will cover a number of activities, which will vary from week to week and may include: confidence building on new surfaces, objects, obstacles, etc.; exposure to new sights, sounds, etc.; socialization with new dogs, including both interactive socialization (play time) and passive socialization (pack walks, settling practice, or other exercises to build neutrality towards other dogs); and socialization with new people, including both interactive socialization and passive socialization.

NOTE: This is not a training class - we will not be covering obedience, manners, or problem solving except as it relates to puppies’ environmental and social confidence.

Upcoming Classes: This socialization opportunity will be guided by Jill Owen

  • Every Wednesday, 5:30-6:00pm - ongoing, weekly unless otherwise specified

Prerequisites: puppies must be between 8 weeks - 6 months old to attend socialization sessions. Puppies who have not yet attended training with us must have prior approval before attending. Puppies who are in training or have completed training are welcome to join, so long as they still fit in the age restrictions for the socialization classes.

Pack Walks

Pack Walks: $5 Drop In - 30+ minutes - Unlimited Dogs!

Pack Walks are a great way to give your dog socialization with other dogs in a safe, positive environment. Passive socialization through activities like pack walks are an excellent way to build confidence and calmness around other dogs for dogs that may not be ready for interactive socialization, or whose eagerness to play with all other dogs needs to be tempered by helping them learn how to do more calm social activities. Packs Walks are on leash and dogs must be under control.

Upcoming Class: No Pack Walks currently scheduled.

Tentative Next Session:

Prerequisites: Dogmanship 1 and 2, or prior approval
