What’s a Good Age for Puppy School?
8-12 Weeks Is the Best Possible Time for Puppy School
A puppy’s most important key developmental period ends around 12 weeks of age. During this very sensitive time, a puppy is more receptive and adaptable to learning new things than they will be later. If you want to raise a confident, social and friendly adult dog, this is the time to book for puppy school. But don’t worry if your pup is older, the important socialisation period lasts until 16 weeks of age!
Unfortunately many breeders and vets without the proper understanding of early socialisation often advice against socialisation or even taking your dog outside at all before the puppy is fully vaccinated. Since this happens at 16 weeks of age, this would mean missing the whole socialisation period. Unfortunately, I have met many puppies that were over-protected by their owners. They are not happy, or normal, dogs anymore. A walk around the block causes them a great deal of stress. If you follow this advice and don’t socialise your pup before 16 weeks of age you will end up with many behavioural issues such as anxiety, nervousness, fearfulness, timidness, anti-social behaviours and even aggression towards other dogs or people.
Why? Studies on canines have taught us that puppies have a sensitive development period that lasts for the first 4 months. And we know now that if a puppy isn’t socialised within the first 4 months they will never be comfortable in unfamiliar environments and situations.
A good learning foundation is crucial for a puppy’s learning.
A puppy needs a good learning foundation to grow up to be a confident adult dog. This means proper positive socialisation training. This doesn’t mean dog play. All tho playing is a part of socialisation, it’s not even close to being the most important aspect of it. Socialisation means introducing puppies to the environments and situations they will experience during their lives. This is crucial for them to get used to different situations and to feel good and comfortable about it. Different objects, people, dogs, other animals, surroundings, noises etc. are all things your puppy needs to get used to in a positive way.
Did you know that every experience is stored away in your puppy’s memory affecting their personality? This is a scientific fact. So, it’s the way dogs are raised and the experiences they have, especially as young puppies, that will truly determine their true personality. No matter how confident your pup was when born, this can easily change. The more positive experiences, especially early on, the more confident your dog will be.
Puppies learn all the time…Seriously, all the time!
What is puppy training?
Puppy training is the process of teaching your puppy essential skills and good behaviour from an early age. It focuses on basic commands like sit, stay, come, and leash manners, as well as socialisation, impulse control, and problem-solving. Puppy training helps your dog develop good habits, builds a strong bond between you and your dog, and sets the foundation for a well-behaved dog in adulthood. It also addresses important skills for dealing with distractions, meeting new people or animals, and managing fear or anxiety in different environments.
What age can my puppy join puppy classes?
Any time from 8 weeks to 16 weeks of age, after their first vaccination at 6 weeks of age. Puppy schools are never run in public parks, only in private and safe spaces with no increased health risks from un-known dogs.
When is the best time to join puppy school?
As early as possible from 8 weeks of age. The best time to join puppy school is typically between 8 to 16 weeks of age. This is when puppies are most receptive to learning and socialising, and their critical developmental period for socialisation occurs. Early training helps set a strong foundation for good behaviour, builds confidence, and reduces the risk of behavioural issues in the future. However, even if your puppy is older, it’s never too late to start training and socialising them! Our teen classes are great for older puppies!
My puppy hasn't been fully vaccinated yet, can I still join puppy school?
Yes, in fact the most important socialisation period for dogs is 8-12 weeks of age, this is ideal for puppy school as well. Studies show no increased health risks in puppy schools and plenty of benefits. Puppy schools should always be run in private locations, not in public outdoors spaces. All our locations are safe and cleaned with F10 which vets use as well.
