At the root of almost every unwanted doggy behaviour is intense anxiety, because the dog is unable to read cues and reciprocate suitably. Thrown in a new situation or environment, your dog might get overwhelmed by the flood of stimuli, and does not have the confidence that he remains in a situation that he can understand or control.

Dog to dog aggression is one of the most common accidents that happens outside the house, yet it is incredibly preventable.

While socialization is best done during the golden window of 3 - 8 months, it is still something that your adult dog can definitely pick up. Our adult socialization syllabus aims to build a strong foundation to develop your dog into a confident and well balanced dog who is able to read situations without becoming fearful, aggressive or over-reactive.

The objectives of our Puppy Socialization Syllabus includes teaching your dog:

1) How to read other dog's cues
2) Appropriate meet & greet body language
3) Exposure to various stimuli
4) Pack dynamics
