Dog Socials

Do you know dogs that are NOT friendly with other dogs? That's generally because they were not socialized well as puppies. Doggie socials are designed to get your puppy socialized around dogs and people at an early age, and then to keep them well socialized through adulthood. Many people take their puppies to puppy class and socialize them as puppies. But then when puppy class is over, the socialization ends. The end result is that over time, your dog becomes unsocialized because he has not had the constant exposure of meeting dogs he doesn't know with good experiences each time.

Our Doggie Socials are structured so that puppies through adult, large and small breed all get to continue their socialization. Check out which one is right for your dog below.

If you are not currently enrolled in class at Best Paw Forward, please bring a copy of your dog's vaccination record showing that the dog is up-to-date on Rabies, Distemper and Bordetella. Dogs must be free of internal and external parasites.

All dogs MUST LOVE TO PLAY WITH OTHER DOGS before they can join the adult socials. No Exceptions!
