Esso and I took the Puppy (small breed) Kindergarten and Middle School classes with Susan and enjoyed both. My pup is smaller (11 lbs) and can be a nervous lil dude. He started out in the Puppy class hiding during play time, and ended up playing with the big dogs in Middle School class! It was a great experience for us; Esso gained a lot of confidence and we both learned a lot. We're still using and practicing the skills we learned in these classes. Highly recommend!
Taking our puppy to puppy kindergarten class has given us a chance to help socialize him. Often our puppy is too excited in class to learn anything, but the tips and techniques we are learning have been very helpful when we try to implement them outside of class. Classes are affordable, and Susan has always been very helpful and informative. Thanks!
Took our puppy here for some puppy socials and they were great. The staff was nice and knowledgeable and overall it was a good experience for us and our puppy. We will probably be bringing our dog back in the future for one of the longer sessions.

I’ve been taking puppy kindergarten here with Susan, and she is an amazing coach. I’ve learned a ton since starting! This is also a great place to meet other fellow puppy parents. I do Wednesday puppy play dates here too that have been a lot of fun for my puppy (and they’re very affordable!) I definitely recommend coming here. I’m going to attend puppy middle school when my puppy graduates from kindergarten ☺️ Edit: Maple graduated with a huge smile on her face. I am so satisfied with my experience here and have recommended multiple people to attend. I love this place!
