Puppy Group

The course is suitable for all puppies with ages from the 8 th to the 20 th week maximum.

A puppy, who comes into his new home, loses suddenly the family he got until that moment: littermates and mother. And this happens just when he would and should learn a lot by playing with his littermates and by the rules of his mother (bite inhibition, calming signals, interrupting signals). In the phase between the 2 nd and the 5/6th month puppies are very receptive: They learn quickly and the knowledge they acquire will not be forgotten.

The puppy group replaces the loss of learn opportunities through the dog family. Through the important contact with other puppies, and at times with good socialized young and adult dogs they not only learn playfully bite inhibition and dog communication, but they are also confronted with external challenges, which prepare them for the everyday life with the humans. In order to prevent future fear-related problems, it is important that the puppy has now positive experiences with the different visual, acoustic, tactile and olfactory external stimulus. The earlier, the better.

But also the owners learn:

They receive the necessary information about sensitive topics related to puppies: housetraining, feeding, remaining alone, learning and education, correction of behaviour, bond, living together. But also about dog behaviour and how to prevent misunderstandings, about the right way to deal with anxious or aggressive behaviour.

It is possible to prevent problems, if you direct everything in the right path from the beginning. Only a 30 percent of the behaviour is genetic disposition, 70 percent of the later behaviour is determined by the environment.
