PUPPY SOCIALS - Important Information
Puppy Socials will run between 10am and 12pm every second Friday (check our website for dates).
We match your puppy with appropriate partners, and during their time, we aim to build confidence, experience new things, and make furry friends - all in a positive and supportive environment.
We also work on basic manners like not jumping up or mouthing and practice getting them to come to their name when called. It's a fun and educational experience all round.
Puppy Socials are a great way for pups to practice socialising appropriately with other pups their age as well as gentle adult dogs we find suitable. We endeavour to maintain a safe and fun environment for social exploration, and minimise opportunity for injury by tailoring our facility to avoid any big jumps off furniture or play equipment that may impact fragile puppy joints.
Our Puppy Social graduates develop into confident dogs with strong socialization skills. We will provide you with a Report Card after each visit, to let you know how they got on.
