Puppy Parties

Why are Puppy Parties so important?

During 8-16 weeks puppies are at their most influential age. They learn very quickly during this time, good things along with bad. Unfortunately thousands of dogs every year around the UK weren’t given the opportunity to learn correctly. They end up developing major behavioural problems. It is much easier to teach your puppy correctly from the start.

It is particularly difficult to socialise a puppy at this important age because they are too young to go into public areas such as dog park’s. Puppy Parties is a safe environment and because the other puppies are the same size and age it is less intimidating than meeting with a much bigger dog.

What do classes cover?

As well as providing your pet with the chance to learn how to play nicely, they will also become more confident in their surroundings and with other people. The classes teach some basic obedience and help you to successfully house train your pup as well as stop their chewing and biting. The classes teach you how to groom, clip nails and clean teeth etc. They cover benefits of using crates for training and ideas on how to use interactive toys and treats. Classes also give you the opportunity to discuss any issues you may be having at home with training etc.

How do I book in?

We are currently not running any puppy classes.

What do I need to bring with me?

  • Puppies need to have had their first vaccination (ideally more than a week prior to the party)
  • The kennel cough vaccination is desirable
  • Please bring treats for your pets
  • Pups, ideally should have wee’d and poo’d before the classes (Do not worry if they haven’t)
  • Puppy will also need a well fitted collar and lead for the class
