Puppy Classes 8-14weeks (age) ???

Post by kacilake on Sat Oct 22, 2011 3:59 pm

Just been looking for classes in my local area -

the local group runs a pup class for pups aged 8-14 weeks - is this ok if they haven't had all their jabs?

yeah it will be fine as none of the puppies will be going out and it will be inside where at my classes they used to clean the floors with dettol before we started it really good to socialise them early

I think so and it's good to socialize them as soon as possible

As long as all the pups have had their first jabs & none have been exposed to illness (ie by walking on pavements etc) they'll be fine. It's a really good experience for them.

yes you will find that the pups have to have had at least their first needles and they always disinfect the floor ..

Socialisation is so important for dogs and the younger the better!! Try to get some pics if you can!! Big Grin

the centre we go to won't take any age of dogs unless they are fully vaccinated. some centres have different policies but the classes will be good to socialise from an early age. theyre actualy fun for you too

when Winston went to his first puppy class he thought he was king..and was trying to lay all the other puppies out! But the next week they got their own back!!He played really rough too! All the pups were great chums by the end of the classes.. they would all run up to each other to say hello..so cute!!
Yes the owners spend alot of time laughing at the pups antics!

Our Dora was scared at our puppy class - there was a really big boisterous puppy there who was a bit of a bully!
Our trainer wasn't impressed that the party was off-lead. It seems everyone has different opinions about socialisation.
We've since been quite careful to socialise Dora with really well behaved older dogs until she gets a bit more confident.
