Sensible Socialization
Yes! You can safely socialize during the critically important socialization period when shots are not yet complete.
Socialization is so much more than up-close interactions.
We will teach you strategies to help your puppy grow into the best dog they can be – even while maintaining appropriate social distancing from dogs and people.

"We had such a wonderful experience.
We worked with Wendy in-person and via teleconference once the world events dictated our new normal. We couldn’t be happier with the results we’ve had.
Would recommend to all friends and family without hesitation."

“Private puppy lessons were perfect to get my puppy and me started on the right track.
The individual sessions were phenomenal, and tailored for our needs. When we had a stressful week with our puppy, Wendy helped us to resolve the issue.
Wendy is wonderful with dogs (and people). She is a great listener and super understanding and respectful of individual needs. We have greatly benefited.“
