A friendly, small-group start to life for your new puppy — run by our own veterinary nurses right here in Cannonvale.
The weeks between 8 and 16 weeks of age are the most important in a puppy's life. What they meet, hear and experience now shapes the calm, confident, well-mannered dog they grow into. Our puppy school makes the most of that window in a safe, controlled environment supervised by our nursing team.
Classes are kept deliberately small so every puppy — and every owner — gets attention. You will leave each session with practical skills to use at home and the reassurance of having your questions answered by people who see puppies every day.

Safe, positive introductions to other puppies, new people and everyday sights and sounds during the critical window.

TrainingTeaching gentle mouths and redirecting nipping — one of the most common concerns for new puppy owners.
BehaviourPractical, proven routines to get house-training on track quickly and reduce accidents at home.
At HomeGentle desensitisation to being touched, examined, groomed and having nails trimmed — for stress-free vet trips.

BehaviourTime each week for your questions on feeding, worming, parasite control, vaccinations and general puppy care.
AdviceGames and gentle challenges that build a resilient, happy puppy who enjoys learning and coming to the vet.
EnrichmentA puppy's brain is primed for learning about the world during their first few months. Puppies who are well socialised during this time are far less likely to develop fear, anxiety and aggression as adults — the behavioural problems that sadly lead many dogs to be surrendered. A few weeks of the right experiences now pays off for the whole life of your dog, and gives you a calmer, more confident companion.
