Puppy Socialisation Sessions with sensory input to build confidence and make friends…

 

Wednesday evenings 7-8pm

Portfield Hall, between Southbourne and Christchurch

The first session we will have all pups together and matched by size but if there's an odd one out size wise we can rethink things so just feedback.

“Tilly had a great time each week, meeting all the other doggies and owners, and really helped her socialisation skills” Vicky Bridle Kyriacou

“Very organised and well run” xx

UPPER AGE LIMIT 6 months

Socialise and meet fellow pups with the hopes that new friendships are formed. We will have fun sensory items for puppies to explore and grow their confidence, ball pit, tunnel and play area.

Book your puppy for 6 weekly sessions The booking includes the hall hire and volunteers to be present.

We have Jan (who fosters romanian puppies) and Nikki who runs our Zoomies play dates running the session with lots of play activities. You are solely relied upon to take responsibility for your own puppy. If your pup is timid or over boisterous you need to speak up and take action to learn how to socialize your pup at their own pace. And to ask others to be considerate. Please see disclaimer at bottom. Only friendly puppies please.

If your puppy becomes overwhelmed there is a hallway before the entrance for timeouts or a secret garden between the back carpark and front entrance…

We suggest puppies are kept on their lead initially until doors are closed and until they feel comfortable.

If your pup feels overwhelmed pick them up (if they are small enough) regularly for time outs or take them into the hallway.

Please do not allow any puppies to be overly boisterous or knock over or allow any persistent chasing of any pups who appear nervous or unhappy with any of the interactions. And do ask others to give their pup a time-out if necessary. This session is run on a responsible attitude not only for your own puppy but for the care and consideration of all the puppies present.
