Puppy Playschool is here to help you create friendly, well socialised and well mannered dogs.
Where?
Wingham Pet Motel, 670 Bulga Rd, Wingham or Manning Veterinary Hospital 43 Commerce St, Taree
When?
Usually late Saturday mornings and Wednesday mornings. Weekly for at least 6 weeks and then, if your pup is successfully crate trained (with our help!) you can leave your puppy for morning or day stay Puppy Playtimes. Other days can also be arranged.
Who can come?
As our programme covers everything puppies need to learn in their sensitive socialisation phase of up to 12-14 weeks, dogs must be aged under 12 weeks when they start Puppy Playschool. We give preference to pups who are aged 7-10 weeks.
