Puppy School: A New Model for Socialization and Training

Puppyhood is a critical time for learning. That’s why we are creating a new kind of puppy school — part socialization, part obedience class, part day school.
Here’s how it works:
First 2 hours:
Puppies work hands-on with a professional trainer, building relaxation skills, confidence, and good manners in between short supervised play interactions between puppies.
Final hour:
Owners who are able to join practice obedience skills and review progress. The trainer transfers techniques directly to you, so learning continues at home.
​​​Choose Your Puppy’s Cohort
​
To keep classes small and effective, each cohort will be limited to 4 puppies:
✨ Weeknight Cohort – one evening per week
✨ Saturday Cohort – one morning per week
​
Once you register your interest, we’ll confirm the exact day and time with your group.
Program Pricing​: $225
Our 3-hour pilot program is priced comparably to a standard 1-hour puppy class, just enough to cover program costs while we test this new model. Early participants will get exceptional value and hands-on guidance for their puppies.
​
Families investing in this pilot program will also receive exclusive access to our full Puppy Guide upon enrollment.
