If you have a brand-new puppy and want to take some classes, check out Kindred Companions' website!

A common question we get in regard to our classes is whether to start classes by the recommended age or to do the classes in order.

At Kindred Companions, we do our puppy classes by age! Each one of our puppy classes hits a different developmental period. And to make sure you have the best possible experience with us and get the most out of our class, we put pups who are experiencing similar stages together!
