Yappy Hour

 Yappy Hours are a fantastic way to introduce your puppy to new environments, people, and other dogs in a controlled, positive manner. These playtimes are for students only and they must have all age appropriate vaccinations to attend. 

  • Here’s what you can expect from Yappy Hour:
  • 1. Interaction with Other Puppies:
  • Puppies get to interact with each other in a safe environment, helping them learn proper play behavior, bite inhibition, and social boundaries.
  • 2. Exposure to New Stimuli:
  • Puppies will encounter new sounds, sights, smells, and textures. This might include different surfaces to walk on, household noises, and more. The goal is to reduce fearfulness later in life.
  • 3. Socialization with People:
  • Puppies also get to interact with a variety of humans, helping them become comfortable around different types of people, which is essential for their development. Also teaching them manners when greeting a new person.
  • Benefits:
  • Reduced Fear and Aggression: Proper socialization can prevent behavioral issues such as fear-based aggression or anxiety around new environments or strangers.
  • Confidence: Your puppy will be better equipped to handle new situations as they grow up.
  • Stronger Bond: Help strengthen the bond between you and your puppy as you work together to learn and explore new things.

AKC S.T.A.R. pUPPY

 AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy is an exciting program designed to get dog owners and their puppies off to a good start. 

How It Works

Attend our Puppy Stars class. This certificate can ONLY be done in a group training class. Your instructor will administer the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy test at the end of the course. Upon passing the test, you’ll get an application to send to AKC® for enrollment in the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Program. All dogs up to a year old are welcome to participate in the program.

Your puppy will receive the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Medal (for display or memento purposes; not suitable as a collar tag) and a beautiful, frameable certificate designating your puppy is a AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy. You and your puppy will be listed in the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy records.

We do not have a fee for this certificate but the AKC does. You can read more about the program by clicking here.
