Puppy Preschool

Forrestdale Veterinary Hospital Puppy Training Classes

Give your pet a great start to life with a solid foundation in good behaviour. Cecile and her group of trainers at Puppy Associates are the best that you’ll find in Perth. At Puppy Associates, our trainers can give you advice on any issues you may be experiencing with your puppy.

Puppy classes are vital to cementing good future behaviour. The classes allow correct graded socialisation with other pups. Like any training (think about training children or sporting people), ongoing reinforcement is vital, so don’t stop after the puppy classes end!

We know that bad behaviour is one of the biggest issues for pets and their owners in our country. Behavioural issues are one of the most common reasons for pets being surrendered. That’s why Puppy Associates focuses on giving the correct start to a pet’s life – every dog and dog owner should experience the joy of having a well-trained puppy.

Cecile is a Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed. She has links to other trainers and is heavily involved in ongoing learning. As one of the trainers that Animal Sense from Murdoch University uses for problem pets, we’re confident that she’ll be able to train your puppy and tackle any behavioural issues you may be experiencing. Cecile can direct you to more advanced training classes and groups. She may also advise one-on-one sessions if your pet requires more individualised training.
