At first take up of Puppy Doing Yoga you may think it is a fun and feel good experience which is for humans alone but in fact it is far from it. Sure participants do enjoy relaxation and cute puppy action, out of that the pups are also learning very important social and at the same time development skills in each class. At Pups Yoga UK we make sure that each class does not only promote the well being of the human participants but also the development and comfort of our four legged friends.
Whether at Yoga with Puppies in Birmingham or at Puppy Pose Yoga in London the dogs get out of it what they can.
Early Socialization Skills.
Puppy yoga classes at Pups Yoga UK are a focus on the health and welfare of the puppies. We only use puppies from ethical breeders or early foster care programs which we then introduce to a safe, calm environment. Also at this very formative time we work with the puppies outside of their home or breeder setting which is critical for their social development.
- During Puppy Doing Yoga classes, puppies: During Puppies’ Yoga classes, puppies:.
- Learn to engage with a variety of people (that have different voices, smells and movements).
- Gentle petting is a must.
- Experience a variety of sounds and yoga postures.
- During that which is very important is the 8 to 16 week period in which puppies are at their most open to new experiences and to learning how to trust people.
Comfort in motion and touch.
In traditional settings which are structured and limited, with our Puppy Pose Yoga we present a fun but tranquil environment that is free for the puppies to move around, climb on to our participants, and at any point to rest in the middle of a yoga mat. We see this as a safe and controlled introduction to many human movements from the down dog pose to the seated poses which in turn de sensitizes them to that which is unpredictable movement.
- This type of experience helps: This kind of experience does:.
- Build up human trust during touch or lift.
- Decrease stress in new settings (at the vet’s or in your new home).

Learning Boundaries Via Subtle Correction.
All at Pups Yoga UK we have trained staff that lead classes which also include the puppies’ comfort and safety. In our classes puppies gradually learn about what is acceptable from appropriate chew toys to proper elimination areas, to polite interaction with people.
This early experience sets the base for later training in their forever homes which in turn makes them more confident and responsive puppies.
Developing a Balance Between Play and Rest.

We have a set routine in each class which puts an emphasis on calm especially during the yoga flow and cool down segments.
