What Is A Puppy Nursery School?

Imagine a School where your puppy can;

  • Develop beautiful manners
  • Work on house training
  • Ring bells to tell you he needs to go out
  • Have rocket-fast recall (come when you call!)
  • Learn Sit, Down, “Place”/Go to Bed and other essential manners
  • Walk nicely on leash
  • Politely greet other dogs and humans
  • Build confidence and resiliency

This program supports you and your family with a support system, online community, optional one-on-one sessions, group class exclusively for Nursery students, and weekly training guides and games delivered to you directly!

Socialization is critical during the first 16 weeks of a puppy’s life. Your puppy will learn all about the world in either a positive, or a negative, way. At Four Leggers Nursery School we are committed to creating positive associations with all kinds of people, place, and things, to start your puppy on the right paw.

Welcome to Four Leggers Nursery School!

Ah Adolescence. Is the Honeymoon Over?

It’s a question that arises frequently as puppies enter adolescence (at around 7 months old).

Adolescence is a time when a puppy may need further training and impulse control – even some additional socialization to help him with impulse control, manners or confidence. This is when time spent playing and training alongside peers can help him develop more maturity and better social skills.

Nursery School for adolescent puppies emphasizes training, good manners, and calm interactions with puppies, dogs, and people.

Our 4-week curriculum for adolescent puppies is geared toward transformation of disruptive behaviors like; barking, jumping, pulling on the leash, not coming back when you call, and excitability. Puppies must have age appropriate vaccines including Distemper and Bordetella.

The best way to get started is to fill out the enrollment link above! We will get back to you ASAP with the next start up date available for your puppy.
