If you want your dog to be a classy canine, sign her up for puppy kindergarten classes.

Being a puppy isn’t all fun and games. At this point in your dog’s life, she is at her most suggestible, which means it’s the perfect time to start puppy kindergarten, which teaches training obedience, socialization skills and doggy manners. It’s also a wonderful way for you and your new puppy to bond and as a way to establish yourself as the Alpha in your household.

If you don’t have much experience with dogs, you’ll get as much out of puppy kindergarten as your dog. You’ll learn all about puppy behavior, handling skills and housetraining basics. We’ve put together a list of why your dog should enroll in puppy kindergarten classes.

    Keep in mind that all puppies are different, so they will learn and pick up skills at their own pace. Be positive and firm, offer plenty of rewards and effective and be consistent. You’ll see the rewards as your puppy grows into a well-adjusted dog.
