Calm, confident greetings

Socialization Class

Socialization class is structured group work for dogs who need help being comfortable around other dogs and people — whether that's an under-socialized rescue, a nervous adolescent or a dog that gets overexcited on greeting.

We work at a distance your dog can handle and close the gap as their confidence grows. The goal is a dog whose default around other dogs is calm rather than reactive.

What to expect

Inside socialization at Howliday Inn

  • At your dog's pace

    We start where your dog is comfortable and build from there — no flooding.

  • Read the room

    You'll learn to read your dog's body language and step in before things escalate.

  • Small, matched groups

    Dogs are grouped by size and temperament so every session is safe.

Before your first visit

All dogs must be up to date on distemper/parvo, Bordetella and rabies. Please bring proof of vaccination at check-in. See all FAQs.
