Puppy Preschool

Train your new four legged friend at Newcastle’s Brunker Road Veterinary Centre. Led by Delta instructors, our Puppy Preschool is for all new puppies.

Our practice is responsible for hundreds of well behaved Newcastle dogs thanks to their puppy preschool training.

Studies have shown that puppy preschool has dramatically reduced levels of euthanasia in dogs due to behavioural problems, highlighting the importance of early socialisation for your new puppy. In addition, puppy preschool provides practical training methods and in-depth information on how to care for your new puppy.

Brunker Road Veterinary Centre’s Puppy Preschool Program

BRVC offers a Delta approved, extensive and highly regarded puppy preschool program run by our resident Delta dog trainer’s Sharon Tonkin, Abby Moran, Georgia Tatton and Stacey Murton.

Puppy preschool provides a safe, protected environment for you puppy to learn. All puppies must start between 8 and 15 weeks of age and have had their first vaccination.

The BRVC program consists of 60 minute classes, one night a week for 5 weeks, starting at 7pm. Our courses cover socialisation, settling, behaviour, handling, health and basic obedience. The aim is to have a happy, confident, well mannered pup with owners that are more knowledgeable and have a better understanding of their puppies needs.

Class numbers are kept to a maximum of 5 puppies as smaller classes provide less distraction to puppies and improves their ability to learn. These classes are very popular and we ask if you can book as soon as possible as classes are often booked out well in advance. Classes are run on most nights of the week.

If you’ve got a puppy in Newcastle and would like to book in for puppy preschool, contact us.

Testimonials

    Our little cocker spaniel Tinkerbell who is only 1 yr old was feeling so unwell and was cared for by wonderful Dr Emily and Vet nurse Izzy. They communicated with us constantly, showered our little girl with lots of cuddles and they didn’t care how many times we rang. The beautiful girls at the front desk always made a point of reassuring us every time we spoke and always passed on our messages. We have always taken our pets to Brunker Rd and they are just like a family. They care above and beyond what is expected and they love and support our animates if they were their own. We cannot thank all the staff at Brunker Rd enough for the love and support they gave to our little Tinky. They are beautiful people inside and out. We would never go anywhere else. ❤️

    Dr. Jonathan is the best with the kindest heart. Definitely the vet to go to.

    I have visited this vet on and off over the past 10 years - between relocating and returning - and have always appreciated their care and assistance. They prioritise emergencies (injury/ open wound) where other Veterinary Hospitals have said I need to wait for the next day for an appointment. The staff are friendly and operate in a timely manner and the treatment my animals have received has always been effective.🙏
