Introduction to Training, Dog Socialization, and A Place for Paws Plus Playtime and Doggie Evaluations At A Place for Paws, one of our most sincere hopes is that dogs find great homes and stay in those homes and that their lives and the lives of their families are fulfilling and rich with experiences. We believe that positive user friendly training and good socialization skills, as well as thoughtful management of any issues will go a long way in helping to make those hopes reality. Everyone is welcome Whether this is your first dog, only dog or one of many, we think this one hour class and socialization session will benefit you and your dog. Those who are new to Paws are, of course, invited to attend but we also welcome any of our current clients to come and listen, watch your dogs play and share the wisdom you have gained while living with dogs. Each session will include:
PlayTime for Dogs Our open play session on these evenings are meant to be educational for the people but it will also be fun and tiring for your dog as well. The group will be carefully watched and any dog that is not ‘playing nice’ will be pulled out of play. Through this PlayTime, you should see how much of a mentally positive experience that dog play is for your pet. Daycare and Playtime Evaluations While we are watching this session, we can also evaluate your dog for Daycare and PlayDay if you choose. All of our Daycare and PlayDay attendees must be certified by one of our trainers. You can set up a private time to do the evaluation if you like but with evaluations done during these sessions, we will be happy to explain how and why we rate your dog in a certain way. This is a FREE session. Please call and tell us when you plan to attend, if possible. However, everyone is welcome and if you just decide to drop in on one of the following dates, that will be fine.
