Puppy class FAQs

Age, vaccinations, home training and the extras included with your course.

Before you book

How old should my puppy be, and what about vaccinations?

Puppies must be no more than 20 weeks old at the start and have received at least their first vaccination. If only the first has been given, your vet must agree to attendance at the initial indoor classes. Carry your puppy into the venue.

Can we have private puppy training at home?

Contact us to discuss one-to-one puppy training. Home visits can cover locations within roughly 30 minutes’ drive of LN6 9NQ.

What’s included

What happens on the included social walk?

The off-site session lasts up to an hour, with pauses to watch, explore and practise—not continuous walking. It takes place once all puppies have completed vaccinations and can walk in public. This walk is included in the £95 course fee.

What do the online materials cover?

Recap videos support the exercises taught in class. The learning platform also includes advice on mouthing, biting and house training. Use Login to access your materials.
