Puppy Class

UPDATE: AS OF SEPTEMBER 9, EARLY FALL CLASSES HAVE BEGUN AND ARE QUITE FULL. IT LOOKS LIKE A GREAT  GROUP. PEOPLE CONSIDERING TAKING A GROUP CLASS WITH TRAINERS FROM A BETTER PET LLC ARE WELCOME TO OBSERVE THESE CLASSES IF ADVANCE NOTICE IS TAKEN (you can't bring your dog). PEOPLE WHO GOT LOCKED OUT ARE NOW STARTING TO SIGN UP FOR THE NOVEMBER/DECEMBER CLASS. CONTACT SELREC IF YOU WANT TO BE WAIT LISTED BECAUSE, AS ALWAYS, PUPPY GROUP CLASSES ARE BASED ON A FIRST COME FIRST SERVED BASIS.

PUPPY KINDERGARTEN and PUPPY NEXT STEP offer similar services as private but emphasis is more on working with distractions and social opportunities with other dogs over a 6 week period of time. There is an expectation of completed homework assignments. There is less individualized attention in a group session and problems within the home can only be addressed generally. We strive to make classes fun, educational and informative.

Classes are held in the gym at the South Euclid Board of Education Building (SELREC) at 5044 Mayfield Rd., located on the SW corner of Richmond and Mayfield Rds. in Lyndhurst, OH
