What is Puppy Preschool?
During their early stages of life, dogs are incredibly receptive to learning crucial skills that will shape their behaviour and interactions in the future. These formative experiences greatly impact how your puppy will engage in play, communicate with both humans and fellow canines, and adapt to various situations as they mature into adult dogs.Â
Our 5 week Puppy Preschool is designed for pups aged between 8-15 weeks of age and offers an engaging and interactive behaviour training program. It serves as the perfect foundational step for pet owners seeking to nurture a polite and sociable puppy.
Why Our Classes?
Classes are run on weekday evenings, once a week, for five consecutive weeks, at 6:45pm from our Springfield location.
Our learning space is thoroughly disinfected before and after every lesson and all pups are closely supervised to ensure everyone has a great time.
Our classes are fun for the whole family. We follow up with 'how-to' videos, info sheets and homework so everyone at home can get involved too.
Classes are intentionally limited to a maximum of six puppies per session to allow our trainer focused attention and support for each puppy’s individual learning needs.
Our classes are led by an experienced and certified trainer dedicated to your puppy's development.
Receive valuable insights into puppy health, including vaccinations, nutrition, and grooming.
Our Training Method
We employ positive reinforcement techniques to facilitate rapid puppy learning through the ‘clicker’ training method.
The ‘clicker’ is a compact handheld device used to pinpoint the precise moment when your dog exhibits desired behavior. Following the ‘click,’ a treat is promptly provided as a reward.
Over time, your puppy will form a positive association with the ‘clicker,’ eagerly responding because “CLICK = TREAT!”

Is My Puppy Eligible?
Our Puppy Preschool is open for puppies aged 8-15 weeks.Â
Before attending their first class, all puppies must have received at least one vaccination. Please schedule a vaccination appointment with us if required, or bring your certificate of vaccination as proof if this has not been carried out at one of our hospitals.
To ensure the well-being of all puppies in class, your puppy must be free from fleas, ticks, and worms, as this safeguards their health and the health of their fellow classmates.
