What is Puppy Socialisation?

Our Puppy Socialisation class is a chance for puppies, six months or younger, to get together and, for the purposes of their development, socialise with other dogs and families.

Why attend Puppy Socialisation?

Puppy socialisation is important to expose young puppies to as many different sites, sounds and smells and experiences during this crucial time – without overwhelming them. 

There is a golden period for puppies to learn about interacting with other dogs and people and to learn to cope with unusual and possible stressful experiences.

How would Puppy Socialisation help?

Without systematic early socialisation your puppy may grow up to be fearful of strangers (whether human or animal)

By attending our puppy socialisation classes, your puppy will learn lots while playing, meeting other puppies and socialising in a secure environment.

They may also meet men, women and children and encountering lots of smells and sounds, which will help in developing confident, well socialized puppies to adulthood.

Who is Puppy Socialisation for?

We offer Puppy Socialisation exclusively to all puppies, six months old or younger. We welcome all breeds and have in the past met a wide spectrum of breeds and sizes.
