Puppy Training

Puppy Classes in Reno-Sparks

The first few months are a critical time for puppies. The experiences they have and the instructions they learn will make a big difference in helping your puppy to grow into being a wonderful part of your family. Puppies are dependent on you to teach them. Hart 4 paws offer several programs to help you guide your dog to be the best they can be.

All our classes are offered in an intimate,  small group environment
