Puppy Kindergarten – Portland

This is a great stand-alone class, or continuation of our Puppy Preschool. We will focus on practicing attention on you, walking on leash, and recall around distractions through a variety of fun games. We will cover impulse regulation exercises, such as “stay” and “leave it,” and calm relaxation around distractions.

The first class is for people only; please leave your puppy at home.

Requirements

Age 16–24 weeks (4–6 months) at the start of class (not at the time you sign up online).
