Communication, Confidence & Social skills

An Essential Part of Your Puppy’s Journey

Our 3-class Intermediate Puppy Class is ideal for puppies over 16 weeks as they progress in their social and behavioural development.


Whether you've done early training or are just getting started, this class focuses on everyday manners, self-regulation, and confidence-building. This series is designed to lay the foundation for a lifetime of good behaviour, social skills, and a strong bond with you.


You’ll learn to understand and communicate with your puppy while they gain valuable social experiences in a safe and controlled environment.


In This Class, You’ll Learn:

  • Focus & Foundations: Reinforce attention, calm behaviour, and basic cues like sit, down, and recall.
  • Confidence & Social Skills: Support healthy play and polite greetings with people and other dogs.
  • Real-Life Manners: Start preventing common challenges like jumping, mouthing, and leash frustration.


Why It Matters: 

Adolescence is right around the corner—this class ensures your puppy continues learning critical life skills before teen behaviours emerge.


Training Details:

  • Location: Indoors at our climate-controlled training facility, 8305 Wagner Rd NW, Edmonton, AB.
  • Training Style: We use science-based positive reinforcement techniques to create a safe, effective, and fun learning experience for you and your puppy.


What's Next

After completing Intermediate Puppy Class, you’ll be ready to advance to All Ages – Obedience & Behaviour Level 1, where you’ll build on these foundations and continue your training journey.

Yes, absolutely! We allow a maximum of two people per dog per class.


We keep class size very small to provide the best experience and value for you and your dog. We accept a maximum of 5 registrants per class, with most classes only accepting 4. Small class size benefits you by allowing the trainer to focus on your specific experience and questions.


We follow and teach science-based positive reinforcement practices and methodologies. 


If you miss a class

If you are sick for a class or otherwise unable to make a scheduled class, the trainer will provide you with the homework for that missed class. There are no make-up classes offered if you miss a class due to your schedule or sickness.  You are welcome to book the trainer for a 30-minute private session to get caught up or have one-on-one instruction for $50. 


Cancellation policy

Payment for class is non-refundable or transferrable if cancellation is made less than two weeks in advance of the class start date. Payment is transferrable for a future class within three months of original class date if cancellation is made more than two weeks in advance of the class start date.
