Puppy Kindergarten
Puppy
Kindergarten is an entry-level obedience and socialization class that
introduces your puppy to the ABCs of puppy obedience - coming when
called, sitting, heeling, and general good manners. Elements of the
class, such as supervised play, also introduce and start acclimating
your puppy to other dogs, other people, and in general, a variety of
new experiences - all in a safe and controlled environment.
In the hubbub of a class, it's virtually impossible for a puppy to really "learn" the obedience commands. Thus, it's far more critical that we teach YOU how to continue the training at home. During the class, you'll receive tips on the training techniques most appropriate for your puppy. And if you're having behavioral problems with your puppy, please feel free to consult with the Trainer.
This class is an ideal foundation for those who want to continue into the club's Obedience or Show Handling classes.
The Class
Six consecutive Wednesday nights, 7:00-7:45, at the Osterville Community Center.
Fees
$95.00 Non-members, $85.00 Members for 6 week session. Refunds are given if the class
is full or under-subscribed, otherwise, fees are non-refundable. Please
feel free to stop by and watch a class before you enroll.
Prerequisites

Registration
Class size is limited and pre-class registration is required. Send a completed Registration Form,
a copy of your puppy's vaccination record, and a check for the training
fee to the contact listed on the registration form. If you're claiming
the $5 rescue discount, we also need proof of adoption. Consider your
