Puppy Pathways | Real World Puppy Training in SW Calgary
Guided Field Trips for Puppies and their People in Calgary
Program Overview
Puppy Pathways is a drop-in program in SW Calgary for graduates of Puppy Potential.
In these guided field trips, held at a variety of public outdoor venues in SW Calgary (all within 15 km of the North Glenmore Park Community Association), Cat will support you and your puppy as you take learning beyond the classroom into real-world settings.
Expect immersive, hands-on experiences designed to build confidence, social skills, resiliency, manners, and practical problem-solving. Each themed class tackles a particular aspect of life, such as the dog park, leash walking, navigating new environments, and managing distractions, with real-time guidance tailored to you and your puppy.
Each outing adapts to the needs of every puppy, handler, and environment, creating a supportive space for learning and growth. Join as often as you wish. Each outing can be repeated and tailored to where you and your puppy are in your journey.
Puppy Pathways is about connection, exploration, and raising a confident, capable family member ready to thrive beyond the classroom!
