Helping puppy put their best paw forward

Puppy Pre-School is an important step in the development of a lifelong companion and helps your new furry family member become confident, well-socialised, obedient and relaxed in unfamiliar situations.

Between the ages of 8-16 weeks a puppy’s brain is developing fast and that is the best time for him or her to learn the best way to be a loving, friendly and well-behaved dog.

We also provide you and your family with all the information you need to raise a happy, healthy dog – for life!

How It Works

We hold Puppy Pre-School classes based on demand.

Classes run for 1 hour, and each week you will have practice to do between sessions to reinforce the learning that your puppy has received.

We welcome all family members to come along and learn how to give the best life to your new puppy!

Classes are held at the clinic (382 Main Road, Coromandel Valley)
Class time is typically on a Monday evening at 6:45pm

Bring the Family

Puppy pre-school is a family affair - it’s important for your new puppy to learn to respond well to all members of the family - to your puppy, you are their pack! Children love to come along and learn about teaching the puppy. It gives them a sense of responsibility and involvement. It is a short commitment from you and your family to make the rest of your life with your new dog enjoyable.

We help your puppy become well-socialised around all sorts of other humans and dogs. It’s a great time for them to have lots of new and positive experiences and build their confidence. We give them a range of experiences in a safe and friendly environment so that when they are out and about with you they will be happy and well -adjusted.
