Puppy Socialization Course
Meet, Play, Learn: Essential Social Skills for Your Puppy!
Our Puppy Socialization Course is a 6-session, 2 week package for puppies under 4 months of age. For puppies under 4 months of age, attending daycare is simply not enough to help that puppy become better adjusted to the world. Socialization is more than just introducing puppies to other dogs. That is certainly one aspect of socialization but a puppy needs to get socialized to everything else in the world too: cars, bikes, other people, children, people with hats, people carrying bags, pushing carts, household sounds, different floor textures, busses … the list can go on and on.
The critical socialization period for puppies ends at about 4 months of age. During this time, you can shape the puppy’s view of his world at a stage in the puppy’s life when he is receptive to learning. Positive experiences help him learn that new things are fun, and hopefully he’ll remember the good association when he encounters them again later.
How Our Puppy Programs Work
We offer two distinct puppy programs, each designed to support your puppy during their most critical learning and socialization window. While both focus on confidence, positive experiences, and healthy development, they serve different goals and family needs.
Puppy Socialization & Training Course
(Trainer-Led | Structured Learning)
Our Puppy Socialization Course is a 6-session, 2-week program for puppies under 4 months of age who would benefit from guided exposure and foundational training skills.
This program is trainer-led and intentionally structured, focusing on:
• Building confidence through positive, controlled experiences
• Early training foundations using short, reward-based sessions
• Exposure to new environments, sounds, surfaces, and handling
• Supervised social interactions with puppies and appropriate adult dogs
Puppies attend 3 days per week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) for two consecutive weeks, with all puppies starting on a Monday. Each day includes enrichment, trainer interaction, rest periods, and gentle introductions to grooming and handling concepts.
This program is ideal for puppies who need extra guidance, early manners, or a more intentional start to socialization beyond traditional daycare.
Puppy Preschool
(Play-Based | Routine & Social Learning)
Puppy Preschool is a weekly routine-based program focused on learning through play, structure, and repetition, without formal training sessions.
This program emphasizes:
• Social confidence with other puppies
• Learning how to be comfortable in a group setting
• Developing independence, resilience, and routine
• Mental enrichment, rest, and age-appropriate play
Puppies attend on a consistent weekly schedule (3 or 5 days per week) and benefit from a predictable environment that supports healthy social and emotional development. While there is no formal training instruction, puppies naturally build important life skills through guided play, enrichment activities, and structured downtime.
Puppy Preschool is ideal for families looking for ongoing socialization, routine, and enrichment without a formal training component.
