Puppy School

A NEW PUPPY….. how exciting!

Getting training early is really important as we want you and your puppy to have a positive and rewarding start.

We call this training Puppy School. At Albany Veterinary Hospital Puppy School is a 5 week course designed for puppies between 8-16weeks of age. We think this is the critical learning time in puppy’s life where they need positive reinforcement training in a safe environment to help them develop into well adjusted, well mannered, obedient adult dogs. It is very important for puppies to get exposure to new experiences e.g. other puppies/dogs, other people/children, loud noises etc this in turn will assist puppy to learn important social skills and develop confidence.

We try and limit our classes to 6 puppies to ensure personalised attention in a calm environment so we all start off on the ‘right paw’. Having the classes at the hospital also helps the puppy, and owner, be more relaxed in the clinic for future visits regarding veterinary matters.

The aim of Puppy School is to educate Puppy and Owner in a variety of areas in relation to K9 care and training. Each class breaks down into 4 categories: Training, Socialisation, Behaviour and K9 Health Care.

Classes are run at the Clinic for 1 hour, one evening per week for a 5 week period. The classes start at 6.15pm sharp on the selected evening each week.

We have been running Puppy School classes since 2000, the 1st clinic in the area to run preschool classes, and our Puppy School Instructor has had over 10 years experience in K9 obedience training.

Cost is $150 to be paid on the first night.
