Puppies!
There’s nothing cuter or more challenging than a puppy.
From the moment you pick up your new pup they are learning. Like little sponges, they absorb everything around them. So where do you start? How do you help them grow and learn all the things they need to learn to survive and thrive?
First a puppy needs to learn socialization skills and manners when meeting new people, going new places, and discovering the world. Next a puppy needs to learn his name, basic obedience skills, potty training, and not to bite your hands with those sharp teeth.
The Comp K9 puppy classes are designed to help your pup learn basics like come, sit, and down plus to help owners dealing with house breaking, behavior challenges like nipping, barking and so much more. We’re here to help you with social skills as your pup discovers the world and all the fun things you can do together. We even have a class for teenagers! Our goal is for your puppy to not only be a good canine citizen but to help you build a strong bond so together you can take on the world.
Classes Offered
PUPPY 1 - Grade School
This class is for the little ones, ages 12 weeks to 5 months. Puppies must have current vaccinations appropriate to their age of the puppy by the first day of the session.
Class Goals are to build puppy confidence, introduce basic cues (i.e., sit, down, come, wait, walk on a loose leash), and prepare for veterinary and groomer visits. In addition time will be spent covering puppy management and household manners. Puppies learn how to behave in the presence of other dogs and people. The class includes the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Test. Class is 6-weeks $120
PUPPY 2 - Middle School
This class is for the adolescents, ages 5 months to 1 year. Puppies must have current vaccinations appropriate to the age of the puppy by the first day of the session.
Class Goals are to build reliability to basic cues (i.e., sit, down, come, wait, walk on a loose leash) by adding duration, resistance to distractions, and prompt correct responses. We will continue to work on aspects of “living with dogs” that are not specifically task related. The main goal is to build joy for training for both handler and dog. The class includes the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Test. The class is 6-weeks $120
