Give Your Puppy The Best Start In Life

The first six months of a puppy’s life are crucial for their development, shaping them into a well-behaved and confident dog.

Enrolling your puppy at Oak Lodge Farm Puppy Preschool gives them the best possible start in life. A safe, structured environment where they can build confidence, make new friends and develop vital life skills with humans and other dogs, from an early age.

Our puppy day care sets your pup up for success.

  • Boosting their social skills through regular, positive interaction with other puppies and people.
  • Offering safe and engaging play that supports healthy physical and emotional development.
  • Building better behaviour through guided socialisation and positive training methods.
  • Providing mental stimulation to help prevent boredom and unwanted habits at home.
  • Promoting early independence to help reduce separation anxiety later in life.

A Day At Puppy Preschool

To give you an idea, a typical day for your puppy includes:

  • Home pick-up and drop-off, so your pup’s day starts and ends with ease
  • Outdoor playtime in our secure puppy-safe space. They’ll meet new friends and enjoy fun enrichment activities that nurture their growing minds and bodies
  • Meal time (with food provided by you), giving them the fuel they need for a full day of learning and play
  • Plenty of rest and relaxation in our cosy indoor chill-out zone, because even busy pups need a nap
  • Weekly updates with photos, so you can follow along with your puppy’s progress and see all the adventures they’re having

Your puppy’s wellbeing, development, and happiness are at the heart of everything we do.
