Manners Maketh Puppies!
At Hamilton Vet Clinic our Puppy Pre School offers a fun, supportive environment where young pups learn essential skills through positive reward-based methods.
Led by experienced and qualified dog trainer Amelia who has Certificate IV in Animal Behaviour and Dog Training.
Our Puppy Pre School focuses on building strong foundations for socialisation, basic training skills such as ‘stay, loose leash walking and recall’, all whilst strengthening the bond between you and your furry friend. We focus heavily on how to help your pup emotionally regulate, how to read their body language and how they communicate with us.
With small class sizes, personalised attention, and a focus on encouragement rather than punishment, your puppy will thrive and grow into well mannered, confident member of the family.
The first few months of a puppy’s life are the most important window for shaping how they see the world. Puppy Preschool at Leash & Learn gives your pup the best possible start — building confidence, social skills, and the foundations for a happy, well-adjusted life.
Held at Hamilton Vet Clinic, our small-group classes are warm, supportive, and designed around how puppies actually learn. You’ll leave every session with practical skills you can use straight away at home.
What We Cover
Every class is structured to build on the last, giving your puppy a progressive foundation across four weeks:
- Confidence building and positive socialisation with people and other puppies
- Basic skills – sit, stay, come, and loose lead walking
- Potty training guidance and settling routines at home
- Understanding your puppy’s body language and emotional needs
- Preparing for vet visits, grooming, and everyday handling
Classes are kept small so every puppy – and every owner – gets proper attention and support throughout the program.
