This 6 week class is the first for you and your puppy and will focus on the crucial once in a lifetime socialization period that is occurring during these first months. We will have Supervised Play, Fear Prevention for Vet, Groomer and general Body Handling, Resource Guarding Prevention exercises, Husbandry Skills, Manners Start, and Safe, Structured Socialization opportunities.

In Manners 1, we work on the BIG 3: RECALL, LEASH SKILLS, and NO JUMPING, while still working on keeping the socialization game sharp!
Open to puppies aged 6 months and older who are comfortable with dogs and people. Build focus, learn to have a consent - based training relationship with your dog, have fun, and build skills in a supportive group!
