What Is Good Age for Puppy School?
As early as possible after the first vaccination has taken effect at 8 weeks of age!
This is something that confuses a lot of people: what is a good age for puppy school. 8 weeks old puppies seem so young and delicate, our natural instinct is to protect them. However, it’s crucial to get the socialisation done right and the earlier the better!
Many studies on canine behaviour have taught us that if a puppy isn’t socialised before 16 weeks of age they will struggle in new situations. This is a survival instinct inherited from wolves, anything puppies haven’t met or experienced in a positive way before 16 weeks of age becomes scary.
Create a Good Learning Foundation for your puppy
A puppy needs a good learning foundation to become a well-behaved adult. That’s why training a puppy is more than just teaching them to sit and give their paw. The most important aspect of raising a puppy is socialisation. And that doesn’t mean that you need to head to the dog park! It means introducing them to the environments and situations they are likely to experience later in life. Therefore, socialisation with different objects, people, dogs, other animals, surroundings, noises etc. is very important for the future of a puppy.
What you need to understand is that your puppy’s brain is like a sponge and every experience, good or bad, is stored away in their memory affecting their personality. That’s why it is the way they are raised and the experiences puppies have that will truly determine their personality as adults. A confident dog might end up timid due to the experiences they have early on in life. The more positive and enriching experiences, the more confident your dog will be as an adult!
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.
