AKC Puppy S.T.A.R Program

Our Puppy Kindergarten classes participate in the American Kennel Club S.T.A.R. Puppy training program.   S.T.A.R stands for Socialization, Training, Activity, and Resposibility.  This program was developed by the American Kennel Club to encourage owners to train their dogs at an early age.

 

This program consists of 20 steps, which upon successful completion, allows you to enroll your puppy in the AKC S.T.A.R Puppy Program. Upon enrollment you and your puppy will receive a medal, frameable certificate, a handbook, and a monthly email newsletter from the AKC.

Cold Weather Canine Care Tips

© 2006 The American Kennel Club, Inc.

A dog’s need for  food, shelter and loving care increases during the cold winter months. Keep  your dog safe and warm by following these guidelines.

  • Dogs can get frostbite or hypothermia when temperatures drop. Don’t leave your dog outside in the cold for long periods of time. Provide a covered shelter, such as a doghouse or kennel, for the times the dog is out of doors.
  • When your dog is inside, keep him warm, dry and away from drafts. Tiles and uncarpeted floors may become  very cold, so put down blankets or pads for him to lie on.
  • Keep your dog a safe distance from supplemental  heat sources such as portable heaters and fireplaces, which can cause severe  burns. Place screens around fireplaces.
