STAR puppy
When I signed Hannah up for puppy class, I specifically looked for a program that was recognized by the AKC. The Great Salt Lake Dog club was on the AKC recommended training programs so we signed up! It took Hannah about 4 classes to start to visit and play with the bigger puppies. The newfie pup was a bit too scary even though he really was a gentle giant. She preferred the adorable Cocker Spaniel and terrier pups. But by the 6th class, she was playing with most puppies. We passed our class and the AKC sent Hannah her STAR puppy award.
