PUPPY PRESCHOOL
Give Your Puppy the Best Possible Start
Our Puppy Preschool helps your puppy build confidence, learn early life skills and begin training in a positive, supportive environment.
We use rolling enrolments, giving you the flexibility to start your block of classes as soon as you get your puppy — no need to wait and risk missing important early development weeks. This approach also allows your puppy to meet a wider variety of puppies and people each week, while still maintaining small class sizes.
Puppies can start from 8 weeks old once they have had their first vaccination. Classes run at 7pm on Thursday evenings.
