Puppy Social School - 3 Week Class
Class Total Cost: $195 (New Price)
(Deposit of $25 is required to reserve your spot in class)
3 Week Class (One Hour Classes)
Special Discount!
Sign up for Puppy Beginner and Puppy Social classes at the same time as back-to-back cl.asses; you will receive a $50 refund at the end of the puppy beginner class.
Give your pup a lifetime of friendly and social behavior with other dogs. Shy pups blossom and overly eager pups learn how to play without overwhelming other dogs in my puppy playtime. Take advantage of the critical socialization period (six and sixteen weeks) and create a trusting dog.
Young pups must have lots of contact in a safe and supervised, on-leash playgroup to grow up well. Pups are given play partners of equal size and similar play styles in my class.
Your pup learns:
Stop playing and settle down when told
Come back from play when called
Safely approach other pups
Engage in a friendly way
Relaxed and safe contact with dogs
You learn:
Body language of dogs and what your dog is saying
Is a wagging tail a sign of friendliness?
Does the dog have a dolphin's smile, and what does that mean?
How to have a successful play date with other pups
Where to take your pup to meet other safe, friendly dogs
Unlike puppy play classes at corporate-run, brick-and-mortar training classes, pups in my classes engage in real play, wrestling, and high-engagement social time. They are not kept six feet apart.
I recommend that you take this class and the Puppy Beginner class at the same time. I do not teach Defend Your Dog in the Puppy Beginner class.
Payment Terms: A $25 non-refundable deposit is required to reserve your spot in class, the balance will be due on the first day of class. Balance for class - $170 for Check, made out to Sue Myles, or Cash. (Total for class is $195) I do not take debit or credit cards, Zelle, Venmo, or any payment except cash or check. Please help us have a smooth first class and bring only check or cash.
All my recommended training equipment and techniques comply with California Animal Welfare Laws. ( I am a graduate of the Humane Officer's Academy)

Vaccine Information
My puppy training class is the safest place you can take a pup.
My clients are the best of the best. After forty five years of successful training I have a special type of owner who enrolls in my class. These owners are caring, conscientious and tremendously responsible. Their pups are house dogs, fed quality diets, are current on vaccines and do receive veterinary care on a regular basis, for life. The quality of my clients is reflected in the overall health of their pets.
The importance of repeated exposure to 'the world' is critical to pups and especially so during the dog's most impressionable period of six to sixteen weeks. Since 1954 the research from Bar Harbor, Maine done by Scott and Fuller still holds true; that the most important social developmental phase is under seventeen weeks. Attending my Puppy Classes helps you take advantage of this critical stage.
Training classes in pet stores are the worst places to train a pup. During the week the traffic of dogs of uncertain care standards is high and, rescue dog groups bring dogs straight out of the shelter/other countries for potential adoption. The sneezing, coughing and urine/stool from these groups of dogs is a real threat to a pup's health, not the locations that I use. Do not compare those classes with mine.
The locations where I teach do not have sick dogs come in for treatment. Only healthy dogs are there. This is unlike a veterinarian's office which regularly has sick dogs come in. I am not exposed to nor do I handle sick dogs. Staff at a veterinarian office handle sick and well dogs. Keeping your pup out of my class while taking him to a veterinary office for visits does not make sense.
Pups in class are all current on their vaccines. No person in my classes would let a vaccine date go by. Your pup is with other cherished pets. Provided the pups are current on their vaccine schedule that is all we need.
Last, I let my record speak, loudly. I have never, since I started Orange County's first puppy training classes in 1979, had a sick pup attend class, or seen any pup in class with a communicable disease nor has a pup gotten sick from attending my classes.
See you in class

Importance of Socialization
I found this great article on the website for American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior. It talks about how important Puppy Socialization is. Please read for yourself.
