Socialization and Exposure: Adventures the SmartyPup! Way
At SmartyPup!, we go above and beyond the typical puppy training school. Our unique activities ensure your pup grows into a confident, adaptable, and joyful companion.
🚘A mini-road trip! Your pup experiences motion and the world’s sights and sounds, building resilience and excitement for new adventures.
🏄 Surfboard: Wobbles turn into wins as your puppy masters balance and stability. It’s a splashy confidence booster perfect for real-life challenges!
💦 Puppy in a Pool: Treat treasure hunts and blowing bubbles teach your pup to explore water safely and joyfully. Every dip is a step toward conquering fears and embracing fun!
We turn everyday moments into extraordinary lessons. So tell us, what adventure did your dog have today? 🌟🐶

Adolescent dogs are full of energy and curiosity as they navigate the world and test their boundaries.
Their brains are still developing, especially the parts responsible for impulse control and decision-making. This can lead to impulsive behavior—like forgetting previously learned commands or rules.
It’s a phase of increased independence and exploration, where your pup is learning about their environment and figuring out how they fit in. At SmartyPup!, we specialize in this challenging yet important stage. Our Puppy 1 Catch-Up class is designed just for adolescent dogs, helping them refine their manners, regain focus, and thrive during this tricky phase. It might be frustrating now, but trust us—it’s all part of the process, and we’re here to help! 🐾 #AdolescentDogs #Puppy1CatchUp #SmartyPupLife #SmartyPup! #SmartyPup_SF #puppycamp #puppytalk

Chew Time is the best time! At SmartyPup!, we know puppies need one to three hours of healthy, chewing each day to go strong, stay happy, and keep those tails wagging.
Playtime is where the magic happens! From building social skills to burning off energy and having a blast with their puppy pals, there’s always something exciting happening at SmartyPup!
