AKC Puppy Classes

AKC STAR Puppy Classes

At North Memorial Animal Hospital

We Are Excited to announce!

NMAH will be holding in house puppy classes once again.  We feel that socialization and learning basic commands should be a priority for all puppies.  If you have recently added a new furry member to your family this class is for you.

Puppy Socialization
93%
Basic Commands
88%
Fun with your new puppy!
100%

Socialization

This may be the #1 most important thing for a young dog.  When a dog is not socialized they do not know how to react to the world around them, sometimes resulting in fear or aggression.

How to sit, stay and come when called

Basic command knowledge is important for your dog to be a polite member of your household.

Is this only for Purebred dogs?

All dogs are welcome to participate in the program including purebreds and mixed breeds.

How to deal with problem behaviors

Jumping, play biting or soiling in the house are often problems pet parents deal with.  We’ll teach you how to stop these behaviors  or redirect in a positive way. 

STAR

S.T.A.R. stands for

Socialization, 

Training, 

Activity and a 

Responsible owner

 all of the things a puppy needs to have a good life!

Are you wondering if it's worth the time, effort and cost? See what some of our graduates say below!

"Puppyhood can be a very trying time and you have helped us as owners by making training fun and lowering our stress levels. My dog's attention level is super and his manners are constantly improving."
"Our pup now knows basic commands & understands positive reinforcement with treats. She also loves to comes to the vet's office!"
"Our pups need as much time and effort to be taught anything as any human child would. So it's very important to start that connection early. Being able to do it in a controlled environment but also around other pups who may be excitable or bark occasionally is great for socializing and helping you and your pup be able to handle these situations calmly and in the best way possible"
