About My School


Puppies are born into the world without knowing anything about us human beings or the world we live in.  By introducing puppy to our world, we hope to help puppy to grow up to be balanced and confident.

At Happy Pack we introduce pup to basic obedience exercises such a sit, down, stand, watch, to come when called, intro to heel work and stay.  We also help you manage other behaviours such as house training, dealing with jumping, inappropriate digging or chewing and nipping.

We guide you to use food correctly in training and help you understand your dog better which enables you to become a better dog owner.
