Need a little help with your doggie's manners? The WHS offers year-round obedience classes. The classes are six weeks in length, with a new session starting every five weeks. Please note the first class of each session is without dogs, humans only!

Puppy Socializing Classes

The first step in having a well mannered, educated dog is puppy socialization. The WHS puppy socialization class gives young dogs a chance to socialize and learn good puppy behaviour at this critical time in their lives. This is a great opportunity that is often missed by many owners.

During the class, the pups will get to spend off-leash time playing with other puppies while learning how to behave with other dogs. Owners will also work with the puppies on important skills such as how to listen during distractions, how to inhibit play-bites, and how to feel comfortable with humans handling their food, teeth and bodies.

In order to participate, puppies must be between 3 and 6 months of age and be up to date on vaccinations.

Classes are held on Sunday mornings. Don’t forget to bring your newest furry family member to every class (including the first one).

Cost is only $125.00. A $25 cancellation fee applies. Sorry, no refunds if cancellation occurs two weeks or less before classes start.
