Dog trainers: plan puppy classes online
How dog trainers can plan puppy classes with online booking: age limits, places per class, weekly courses, vaccination rules and owners booking. €5/month.
5 min read
Puppy classes run on a tight window: puppies need to join at the right age, in small groups, before bad habits set in. Owners of a new puppy want to book quickly and know exactly what's expected. With Book, puppy classes are services with an age range, a set number of places and clear rules, and owners book on your own booking page.
Puppy class services
On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page. Each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.
| Service | Example slot | Places | Example price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Puppy class – up to 5 months | 1 h | 6 | €18 |
| Puppy socialisation session | 45 min | 8 | €12 |
| Adolescent dog class (5–12 months) | 1 h | 6 | €18 |
| Private puppy visit at home | 1 h | 1 | €55 |
Durations, places and prices are examples. Each place is one puppy with its owner.
Age ranges and rules
Say in each description the age range, any vaccination requirement you follow, and that owners should follow their vet's advice before joining a group. Ask in the note for the puppy's name, breed and date of birth; the note reaches you in the new booking email.
Weekly courses
Slots repeat weekly on the weekdays you choose until an end date. Run courses of four to six weeks starting on set dates, so each group progresses together. Owners book each session, or you book the whole course for them from your bookings list; with their email, they get a confirmation with a calendar file for each session.
Small groups
Set places to the number of puppies you can supervise closely. Each online booking takes one place, and a full class leaves your page.
What owners bring
- a collar or harness and lead;
- small treats and a toy;
- a mat or blanket for settling;
- poo bags and water.
Moving on
At the end of the course, book the next step from your list: an adolescent class or a private session. Rescheduling works across services. See the guide on group classes or private sessions.
Private puppy visits
Some owners want help at home in the first weeks. Create a private visit service with travel in the slot, and ask for the address in the note.
What Book doesn't do
Book doesn't take payments, sell course packs, check vaccination records or send reminders. Owners can't move or cancel online: they contact you. One booking page per business, no staff field: with other trainers, create classes per trainer. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
