Puppies are cute, but they can present some special behavioral challenges.  Kindergarten Puppy Training (KPT) can help your puppy happily learn to:

• Tolerate other dogs and people Come when called

• Permit handling and grooming Sit and lie down
• Walk politely on a loose leash Stop biting and chewing
• Kindergarten Puppy Training introduces all the fundamental obedience commands, as well as puppy ownership basics including socialization, handling, and problem-solving for chewing, playbiting, barking, digging, stealing, pulling on the lead and jumping up. Instructor: Dr. Jill Morstad
