Providing the right opportunities at the right time for your puppy can be tricky. We offer socialization opportunities for young puppies in safe, temperature controlled & clean environments, utilizing play, treats & play to cement positive experiences.
Youngest puppies (8wks-12wks @ start): Puppy Play & Train
Held at the West Hills Healing Center in Corvallis at 4pm on Sundays, these sessions provide direct instructions for guardians to practice passive socialization in public & active structure at home. Puppies encounter novel surfaces & sounds as well as other puppies & people. These experiences are tailored to the puppy’s comfort level, and are paired with treats, praise, & play.
It takes a village to raise a puppy! We are committed to fostering an atmosphere that promotes learning & community. As such, our classes are limited to five puppies per session.
*vaccinations required: first round of distemper
