Puppy classes
Each of our pups attend monthly puppy classes along with their volunteer Puppy Socialisers.
Our puppy classes develop our puppies’ training in a controlled environment that is different to their home setting. Our young pups learn obedience training including sits, stays and waits in a busier environment. They also work on recall and learning to settle.
Our Socialisers are able to practice skills such as grooming and health checks. This is an important part of building a bond with a dog and ensuring our young dogs feel relaxed when meeting people.
Puppy classes in action
We make sure puppy classes are fun for our puppies and there’s lots of opportunities for our volunteers to ask questions and share the unique experience of caring for our puppies. Watch puppies Alvin, Callie, Digby and Dotty in action at a puppy class.
Could you welcome a puppy into your home?
We're so grateful to people like Helen, one of our volunteer Puppy Socialisers, who cares for our growing puppies before they start their training. See Helen caring for and training Dillon - her sixth puppy that she has helped us to socialise!
