 What To Expect

While the main focus of these socials will be learning how to play appropriately with other puppies, socialization isn’t just about meeting other puppies. There are all kinds of sights, sounds, and smells our puppies need to learn about. Puppy classes should include opportunities for puppies to investigate novel objects at their own pace with lots of positive reinforcement. Umbrellas, masks, scooters, vacuums, different surfaces, and much more will be incorporated into classes for a comprehensive socialization experience.

New to Socialization? Or Is your Puppy struggling with it?

During the age of around eight to twenty weeks, we recommend everyone explore a safe classroom setting Puppy Social run by Certified Professional Dog Trainers. However, in our experience, the classroom setting is not always a successful starting point for socialization for every puppy. Every dog is different! During this developmental age your puppy may not enjoy or feel safe enough to learn in a classroom setting right away. We may have to build up to it. The classroom setting is a valuable tool and is definitely worth trying. That said, if you see ANY persistent signs of stress behavior or if your puppy cannot be soothed, you can and should take a break from the lesson with your puppy. If it is still not working for you and your puppy, we recommend going home early. Please try to speak with one of the trainers for support before you leave.

If you or your puppy is struggling we will gladly provide alternative resources and recommendations to help socialize your puppy in alternative ways.

Your puppy might also be an excellent candidate for our Savvy Social Puppy Classes specifically designed for young dogs that need extra support working on confidence, resilience, and comfort in social settings.
