About Our School

Puppy Class:

The Confi - Puppy Course is for pups between 8 and 16 weeks old and is designed to equip owners with the skills needed to raise a healthy, happy, well-balanced companion.
 
Puppy socialization at an early age is vital. Your puppy has a short critical window period before the onset of fear and hazard avoidance. It is in this critical period that he will learn most of his socialization skills and where we can assist with habituation and desensitization to stimulus such as traffic, loud noises, children, etc.
 
Our five week course includes information on important issues such as digging, chewing, resource guarding, bite inhibition and more. You will learn how to work with your puppy in a force-free manner where we will teach you how to teach your puppy vital skills such as down, stay, leave, recall and more.
