FAQ
Common questions
How old does my puppy need to be?
Puppy class takes pups from 10 to 20 weeks old who have had at least their first round of vaccines.
What vaccines do you need?
Distemper and parvo for every dog, rabies for dogs over 16 weeks, and kennel cough for group classes.
My dog is reactive. Can he join a group class?
Not right away. Start with private lessons or the reactive dog program, then join a class when he's ready.
Do you use shock or prong collars?
No. We use food, toys and praise, with a flat collar or a harness.
Can the whole family come?
Yes, and we encourage it. Everyone who walks the dog should learn the cues.
