Puppy Classes
(10 weeks-6 months)Puppy Classes (10 weeks-6 months) in the Greater Houston Area

Puppy Start Right Class
For puppies 9-14 weeks of age at the puppy’s start date. A four week socialization class with weekly homework and online video resources. The class is ongoing which means you can begin as soon as your puppy is able. The class is four consecutive weeks beginning at your first class.
The focus of the class is building a solid foundation for a well socialized adult dog who adjusts well to changes and new experiences. We cover potty training, play biting/mouthing and chewing. To help your puppy handle vet visits easily as an adult, we work each week on handling exercises with mock vet examinations and teach your puppy how to willingly get on and off of the scale. We practice exercises that work towards preventing behavioral problems such as resource guarding, separation anxiety, restraint and handling issues and many other behavioral problems. We also start laying a foundation for obedience behaviors, we teach sit, down, come, leave it, walking on leash, drop it and jumping up.
Early puppyhood is a critical time for socialization and learning. Puppy class is the single most important thing you can do to help your puppy reach his full potential.

Bandit’s behavior improved significantly after doing the Puppy Start Right class! After class, being able to use commands such as drop it, leave it, sit etc have really been helpful!

Puppy Preschool
This is a training program where you leave your puppies (6 months and younger) with us for a day of training and socialization. This is a great option for clients with a busy life who want to make sure their puppy receives the socialization that is needed at this age and as a supplemental resource to go along with in-home private lessons or the Puppy Start Right group class. This option is only available for clients who are working with us either in group classes or private lessons.
What we work on:
- Short Playtimes with other puppies (monitored by a trainer to help the puppies learn proper social skills around other dogs).
- Exposure to a grooming environment.
- Exposure to grooming experiences: bath tub, grooming table, nail trims, brushing, etc.
- Exposure to new sights, sounds, smells, people, and other dogs in a controlled and calm setting.
