For group classes, we ask that dogs are comfortable around other dogs and people and don’t bark or lunge. If your pup gets a little too excited or reactive, our (re)activity program is a great place to start. It helps dogs build confidence, focus, and social skills so they’re ready to enjoy group classes in a safe and positive way!
This class is for puppies up to 16 weeks of age at the first week of class. This group class is designed to meet the crucial developmental needs of your puppy. This class focuses on foundational skills such as appropriate socialization, introduction to basic cues (commands), mental stimulation, and leash training. We will teach your puppy to look to you for guidance and help, rather than focusing on various distractions in the environment. We will also focus on important life skills, like being calm around people and other dogs, and much more! We strive to ensure you and your puppy have fun, and your puppy goes home tired!

CleverPuppy 2 focuses on helping your growing puppy thrive as they become more curious, energetic, and physically capable. In this class, we work on transitioning from “excited” to “calm,” reinforcing practical skills like going to a bed, automatic leave-it, and walking calmly past distractions. We also continue building your puppy’s independence, patience, self-control, and teamwork with you.
CleverPuppy 2 meets once a week for 4 weeks and is $110 for the full series. This is a group class, which offers the most affordable training option and provides valuable age-appropriate socialization for your puppy.
