Who can attend?
Puppy preschool is for puppies from 8 to 18 weeks of age. This is a key age for social development, and it is important that puppies are exposed to a variety of people and other dogs in this time.
This is also an age where puppies can go through some trying behaviours. Puppy preschool aims to equip you with the best tools to help your puppy grow into a happy, well-behaved, and beloved family. We know that puppy training requires consistency; therefore, we welcome other family members to come along to puppy preschools. Should you have more than one puppy, you must bring a responsible handler for each puppy.
Vaccination and illness
All puppies must have had at least their first vaccination. Proof of vaccination must be provided at the beginning of the course for each puppy in attendance. Due to our insurance obligations, there can be no exception to this.
Whilst the immunity of the puppies will be lower than that of an adult dog, our preschools are held in safe and aseptic environments where the risk is greatly reduced. We do all we can to provide a safe environment for puppies in which to learn, and any puppy exhibiting signs of illness will be removed from class for their own safety and that of the other puppies.
Dogs must be kept on lead at all times when arriving and leaving the premises and during class, there is no off-lead time, it is your responsibility to ensure your dog is on a safe and secure lead in good condition and to be controlled by you at all times, there is no off lead time at all at obedience classes to adhere to relevant council bylaws.
