Our Programs
Baby Puppy School
Here Boy Dog Training offers a four-week structured baby puppy course for puppies 8-16 weeks of age. We are proud to partner with Progressive Vet Care to host our premium four-week puppy course.
Training inside a veterinary clinic provides the ultimate safe, hygienic, and sterile environment for young puppies who are still completing their vaccination schedules. Our classes are designed to create incredibly positive associations with the vet clinic, ensuring your puppy loves visiting the vet for the rest of their life.
The purpose of baby puppy class
