Good questions

Before you begin.

How early can puppy lessons start?

Once your veterinarian clears outings and the puppy has settled at home.

Can a puppy join a stay?

Some programs accept young dogs and many set a minimum age. Ask what yours requires and why.

Are lessons enough for a puppy?

For most puppies, yes, as long as you practice in short bursts every day.

How long are puppy sessions?

Short. Thirty minutes is common, with breaks built in, since puppies tire fast.
