Puppy preschool

Give your puppy a great start in life

Preschool for Pups

Socialisation is one of the key advantages of puppies attending preschool. It helps puppies become happy and well-adjusted especially when around different people and dogs.

Our puppy preschool is designed for puppies 8 – 16 weeks of age. If your puppy is older than 15 weeks, our Senior Puppy classes would be better suited.

Puppy preschool is run by Delta accredited professional trainer Marianne from Pet Professor.

Overview

Puppy preschool involves small classes of three-to-five puppies to allow them to receive individual attention.
The program includes a one-hour informational webinar that owners can log into before the first class, followed by
Four x one-hour weekly practical classes held here at the hospital.
Our preschool offers gentle, force-free training using positive reinforcement, and a
Safe, clean environment.
Puppies can start attending classes after their first vaccination which they should have 7 – 10 days prior to the first class.
