July 2022 Puppy Party – North Versailles

Puppy Parties (for dogs under 2 years old) help socialize and build positive experiences with new friends (both human and K9) helping them learn appropriate ways to behave.

• Puppy playgroups are organized by size – so little pups aren’t overwhelmed by big ones.  All Puppy Parties are supervised by our staff.
• Puppy parties are held “Rain or Shine” – outside in our fenced in play yards or inside if the weather doesn’t cooperate!
• We encourage everyone, especially parents of children who are thinking about getting a new puppy,  to ask questions about what they see.  This will help them learn about the many varieties of dogs as well as the many the responsibilities of helping a puppy grow up to be a good dog.

Walkers Pet HoTail Pet Care Center has held free puppy parties for dogs under 2 years old almost every month since we opened. (We hold special events in October and December!)

COVID has limited socialization opportunities for people and their pets.
