MERCER ISLAND PUPPY KINDERGARTEN CLASSES & OFF LEASH PUPPY SOCIALIZATION!!!
Karma Dog Training has created a dynamic 8 week, puppy kindergarten and puppy socialization class consisting of over 10 hours worth of instruction designed to give Mercer Island dog parents and their newest addition to the family the headstart in life he or she deserves. Endorsed by Veterinarians, Groomers, Animal Control Officers and Doggie Daycare Professionals throughout Mercer Island, we give unprecedented care and attention to each puppy.
Taught in a state-of-the art, indoor, climate controlled, spacious room, the grounds our kept immaculate as they are parvo and distemper disinfected before each class. This allows maximum safety and comfort for your new puppy!
By offering weekly puppy kindergarten and puppy socialization classes for puppies between the ages of 8 weeks and 18 weeks of age, Karma Dog Training offers Mercer Island puppy owners a safe and supervised place to bring their not-yet-fully vaccinated puppies to immediately begin the process of "safe socialization".
VETERINARIAN ENDORSED!
"Early socialization is absolutely crucial. This is a wonderful way to socialize puppies in a safe and responsible manner."
- Dr. Ian Dunbar, Veterinarian and Founder of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers
Dr. Dunbar is currently Director of the Center for Applied Animal Behavior in Berkeley, California. He has written numerous books and hosted a dozen videos about puppy/dog behavior and training. Click here to get his classic book "After You Get Your Puppy"
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
In addition to having your puppy become "super socialized", your dog will learn basic dog obedience with Karma Dog Training's 7 Requests for Success - "watch me", "stay", "come", "down", "loose leash walking", "leave it" & "go to your bed". Your puppy will learn this with hand signals and voice cues. No harsh corrections.
In our Mercer Island puppy kindergarten and socialization classes, your puppy will also learn important bite inhibition skills. Furthermore, we give you a greater understanding of your role in your puppy's behavioral obstacles and how they originated. We then provide you with many practical applications on how to overcome them, turning them from potential negative experiences into positive healing opportunities.
TRY BEFORE YOU BUY
*Keep in mind, we allow you to take the first class without any obligation to see if it's the right fit for you. If you enjoy the class, you can simply sign up and pay after the class.
IS EARLY SOCIALIZATION SAFE?
The American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior (AVSAB) is a group of Veterinarians and Research professionals the animal community depends on for their wisdom and unbiased discernment.
Please take a quick look at when they believe the proper time to socialize a puppy is and what the possible adverse and unwanted secondary effects could be in delaying the process.

*If your puppy has only one round of shots, please carry your dog from the parking area into the training room.
*We do not parvo or distemper disinfect the parking lot or other grounds of the facility right before every class, only our classrooms.
