NEW Dog Training Programs

NEW! Dog Training Programs at The Orchards Sundays | Puppy Social Hours Puppies ages 8 weeks to 4 months April 27 - June 1 *Omit May 11 (5 weeks) Residents pay: $40 Non-residents pay: $50 Introducing Puppy Social Hours! Our certified Training and Behavioural Specialist Riza teaches new dog owners how to enjoy meaningful relationships with their dogs. As a member of the International Association of Canine Professionals Riza is committed to helping dog owners and families succeed in their training and leadership goals. Socializing your puppy at a young age is very important for their development and helps set the stage for future interactions. This class is designed for puppies to enjoy supervised, off-leash socialization and exposure to various sights, sounds, and textures in a playful environment. Riza will be at the Puppy Social Hours to offer guidance and support with puppy interactions. A maxmimum of two handlers (owners) per dog are permitted to attend class alongside your puppy. Our classes are intentionally small with a maximum of 6 puppies and are held in our fully fenced outdoor rink for a safe and controlled space. Class requirements: - Puppies must be between 8 weeks and 4 months at the start of class - Age appropriate vaccines are required to attend. This includes core vaccines, rabies, and bordetella. Talk to your veterinarian or breeder for more information. You will be asked to provide a copy of vaccination records prior to the start of class. *Note: larger breed puppies are recommended to attend the class for puppies ages 4-6 months
