ABOUT THE JUVENILE PUPPY PROGRAM
​

This program provides you with the support to move forward with further training to our Adult Companion Dog Program. My emphasis at all times is on positive reinforcement training.
At the juvenile puppy free lesson I will talk about the program structure and how we like to individualise the programs to suit the individual dogs within a class situation. I will also explain the importance of vaccinations, preventative flea and worm treatment, feeding and grooming and adulthood.
