9:30AM Beginner Social (HALF HOUR) - for puppies AND shy small friendly dogs

Is your dog new to socialising or a little nervous? Maybe they are a little older or prefer calmer company, then come and join us for our social events catered to your dogs needs, back for 2026.

This hour social helps to introduce your dog in a calm manor whilst enjoying all the fun,  it's a great opportunity for new puppies to interact with other pups and small, friendly dogs. We have separate 'shy zones' if needed. All ages are welcome but dogs height must be under-the-knee any boys over the age of 6 months must be neutered & no girls in season.

This particular event is ideal for:

• Shy or nervous dogs
• Puppies who need a gentle introduction
• Older dogs who prefer calmer play
• Small, sensitive souls who thrive in smaller groups.

(If your dog does not fit into this criteria please head to our regular socials for confident dogs)

Teddy's Social Club is your opportunity to meet other dogs (and their owners) and have a look around our luxury doggy day care in Wootton, Northampton. You'll get to meet the team and ask any questions you may have and potentially make friends too. We carefully manage numbers to keep the atmosphere peaceful, giving your dog the space they need to socialise safely and confidently.

Enjoy complimentary refreshments and a relaxed environment that is tailored to your dogs needs. The Teddy's team will be on hand to answer any questions about day care life as well as offering advice. Feel free to explore our bespoke venue and let your dog enjoy our open spaces whilst socialising with other doggies.
