I just got a new puppy about 2 days ago. She just turned 9 weeks old yesterday. She is doing very good with everything! I just would like to have some ideas on what is a good age to start her in puppy school?

   As soon as she has all of her shots, she is ready to be out with other dogs, and enrolled in puppy school! Until then, you can start teaching basic commands at home!

   Call the place you want to enroll in basic puppy training obedience. They vary in the ages. In the meantime, you can work on one or two commands now. The easiest ones are sit and stay - because both can be trained quickly on food.

   I like to teach a puppy to sit and stay(wait) whenever you feed them and put the bowl down - its manners and you don’t have a dog jumping up on you in excitement when feeding.
