PUPPY PRE-K9 + A.K.C. S.T.A.R. Puppy

Group classes currently suspended due to a loss of training location

Forty-Five Minute Puppy Socialization, Desentization, & Exposure (S.D.E.) Classes - for vaccinated puppies from 10 weeks
+ AKC AWARD TRAINING via the S.T.A.R. Puppy Program - for puppies under 1 year old

Classes MUST be purchased as a SET for 6 weeks to count toward the AKC S.T.A.R Puppy Award. Classes go over new material weekly in order. However, you are free to join one class for the S.D.E. advantages.

Off-leash and on-leash puppy S.D.E. classes - with outlines set up by Dr. Ian Dunbar. For more information click here.

For puppies between 10 and 18 weeks of age to START classes they must have had two distemper combination vaccines administered after 7 weeks, with the second one at least one week before class. Thus, to start class at 10 weeks of age, a puppy must have had vaccinations at 7 and 9 weeks.

Puppies older than 6 months may still take the AKC STAR PUPPY class for the title (title is up to a year) but they will be split into an older puppy class that we don’t run as often as the <6mo class.

This is not an advanced obedience class.
