Puppy Pre-K
This 4-week course is designed for pet parents with puppies that are 8 to 16 weeks old.
We're passionate about setting you and your puppy up for success from the moment they arrive home, helping you navigate those crucial early developmental months with confidence and support!
What You’ll Learn
Training Foundations
Be proactive, get your puppy started on the right paw early! We introduce behaviors such as: attention, sit, down, leash manners, and polite greetings!
Socialization
Our goal is to empower you to safely and positively introduce your puppies to the world to create confident, well-rounded adult companions! We provide practical and safe ways to socialize your puppy to new places (like preparing for vet visits), people, sights, and smells!
How to Manage Puppy Behaviors
Prevent unwanted behaviors before they start! Our certified trainer will provide effective solution for common puppy behaviors such as biting, chewing, jumping, potty training, and crate training.
Discuss canine behavior + play styles during supervised puppy play time!
Supervised Puppy Play Time! **
“The primary and most important time for puppy socialization is the first 3 months of life, beginning puppy socialization classes as early as 7-8 weeks of age. Because sociability outweighs fear, this is the primary window of opportunity for puppies to adapt to new people, animals, and experiences.”

Enrollment is recommended by 12 weeks of age. Contact us if you’re unable to attend a full class, we may be able to offer prorated sessions.
Investment: $390 (for 1 month) includes:
4 training sessions (45-60min) held weekly at our Camano Island facility, sanitized before each session
Small class size designed to provide meaningful support
Sessions may be private or small-group (up to 4 puppies), depending on enrollment. While we aim to provide opportunities for puppies to learn alongside one another, some sessions may become private training lessons based on demand. Because effective socialization extends beyond puppy play, families receive guidance on safely and positively exposing their puppy to new people, places, sounds, surfaces, and experiences. When classes are private, we place additional emphasis on creating and implementing a socialization plan that supports your puppy's development between sessions.
