Events for January 13, 2024

Get your dog started on the right paw with general obedience skills that all dogs (and humans) should know! This class will lay the foundations of training by teaching you, the owner, the principles of dog training, how to easily communicate with your dog, how to increase difficulty of commands once your dog starts to understand them, and much more. We will work on engagement with your dog, teach them the “place” command, and begin practicing the foundations for loose leash walking.  Minimum age requirement of 6 months and must meet vaccination & fecal requirements Class limited to 8 dogs  

If you have a new puppy between 10 weeks and 6 months old, these drop-in socialization sessions are for you! During this free, 45-minute playtime, your puppy will be supervised by a DePAW trainer while interacting with other puppies. These are drop-off play sessions, in order to see how your puppy acts without you around. It will also help your pup build confidence and become comfortable at DePAW before participating in daycare, training, or overnight lodging. Class minimum: 2 puppies; maximum: 6 puppies

Do you want to give your dog the exercise that’s so important for them without having to head out in bad weather? This class is designed to help you introduce your dog to walking/running on a treadmill. Not only is it great exercise during winter months, but running on a treadmill is mentally taxing for dogs too, since they have to use brain power to help keep their legs moving properly and stay on pace with the belt. Minimum age requirement of 4 months AND must meet vaccination & fecal requirements Class limited to 6 dogs
