"Purrr-fect" Pets Are "Woof" Your While!

FUNdamentals puppy classes

Teach your puppy right from the start! FUNdamentals will help your pup as he makes the leap from living in the dog world to becoming a welcomed member of the human household. He will learn important foundation skills that can be used for successful training the rest of his life. Most importantly your pup is at a critical age where we can properly socialize him to help prevent serious problems later in life. Your pup will learn life skills such as:

  • settling on a mat
  • nail trims
  • taking pills
  • grooming
  • how to interact with strangers (people and other animals)
  • sitting
  • loose leash walking
  • coming when called

Classes are open enrollment, which means you can start class anytime as long as there is an open space for you
and you have attended a Start Smart orientation. Check our website or sign up for text or email reminders for current topics and dates. Your fee includes 6 sessions.

  • The first session is the Smart Start orientation which is humans only;
  • Then next 5 sessions are with your pup and you have 8 weeks to complete the sessions.
Dogs Gone Wild

Is your cute pup turning into a wild thing? Each class will address a specific problem- jumping, leash-pulling,over-excitement and other topics based on need. All participants will need to attend a Smart Start orientation. Check our website or sign up for text or email reminders for current topics and dates.
