Doggy Play Time
Instructor: Cheryl Jewell
This weekly class is a supervised environment for dogs to learn and develop their social skills, or to just give them an opportunity to run around with other dogs in a safe and clean environment. Owners will learn about dog-to-dog interactions. It is a great alternative to the Dog Park, and a portion of the fees assist the SPCA of Tompkins County.
For those who attended "Puppy Play and Learn", this is a good continuation of the work that you started with your dog.
