Where puppies can build the foundation for healthy relationships, better adaptability, and overall emotional stability
Puppy Socialization is Foundational!
Sign up for our weekly gathering where owners and their puppies (ages 12-24 weeks, all breeds) can enjoy fun, off-leash social time together.
It’s important for puppies to learn to socialize and play appropriately. These early experiences are crucial for their development into well-adjusted, confident adult dogs. Socialization helps them become accustomed to various people, animals, and environments, reducing the likelihood of fear-based behaviors and aggression. Proper play, on the other hand, can teach them essential skills like bite inhibition and appropriate interaction with other dogs and humans. By engaging in positive social experiences and learning how to play appropriately, puppies build the foundation for healthy relationships, better adaptability, and overall emotional stability throughout their lives.
This is not a training class, but you will have K9 Connection experts on-hand to give guidance and advice on how to properly socialize your young pup in a safe environment.
The weekly event is $15 per dog or $39 per dog for a 3 social package. Each social is limited to 10 dogs and two handlers per dog. You can also come as often as you like until your dog is too old for the class.
