AKC S.T.A.R. PUPPY
Start your puppy off right...
The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Program is sanctioned by the American Kennel Club and is designed to help puppy owners start their puppy out with a good foundation for life. This is a great class for owners interested in getting their puppy AKC Canine Good Citizen titled as well. ​
​
How It Works:
You and your puppy will attend 6 weeks of AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy classes with our CGC Certified Instructor. At the end of the course our instructor will administer the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Test. If your puppy passes the test, you will get an application to send to AKC for enrollment in their AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Program.
​
What you and your puppy will learn:
During this course your puppy will learn basic obedience, leash walking, crate training, bite inhibition and more. Owners will learn about important dog care like spay & neuter, grooming, first aid, and habits of responsible dog owners.
