PUPPY KINDERGARTEN (4 or 6 Weeks, limited to 8)
For Puppies 8 to 18 weeks old. |
Every Wednesday 6:15 to 7:15 p.m.
Your puppy may join class any week as young as 8 weeks of age! Sign up and attend 4 weeks of Puppy Kindergarten. Then
decide whether to do a few more weeks of Puppy Kindergarten,
move on to Beginner, or something else! Once your puppy older than 18
weeks, you must move on to another class, as they are no longer eligible
for "Kindergarten". Puppies should be vaccinated according to your
veterinarian and the AVMA guidelines for his age.
You don't have to wait to start! Call Julie at 360-901-1053
to reserve your puppy's starting date.
If you would like a daytime class please let Julie know so she can
schedule one.
