Our Policy and dedication to Animal Welfare

🐾Hello, Happy Puppy Yoga Community!🐾

At Happy Puppy Yoga, we prioritize the welfare of our furry friends and are committed to maintaining the highest standards in our classes. We understand you may have questions about puppy yoga, and we're here to address them.

First and foremost, our top priority is always the health, happiness, and safety of our puppies. We understand the importance of gradual and calm socialisation for puppies, which is why we structure our classes accordingly. Our instructors are trained to observe and understand puppy behaviour, ensuring a positive and not overwhelming socialisation experience.

Hydration is vital for puppies, and we guarantee constant access to water during our classes. We keep them hydrated, comfortable, and safe, as part of our fundamental care routine. 

We aim to create a peaceful environment that is conducive to both yoga and puppy comfort, away from noisy outdoor areas and public places. The lighting and noise levels in our studios are kept comfortable and safe for the puppies. 

We respect the puppies' need for sleep and ensure that they get lots of time between classes to sleep.

We abide by ethical and responsible practices, involving only puppies of suitable age and weaning status in our classes as they wait for their forever homes. We understand the crucial developmental period in a puppy's life and factor this into our class planning. 

We also strive to create an environment that is enjoyable and beneficial for both our human participants and puppies. Our classes are designed in collaboration with animal behaviour experts, ensuring a beneficial experience for the puppies.

We advocate for the regulation of puppy yoga to ensure the highest standards of welfare are met across the industry. We believe that such regulation would help ensure all puppy yoga providers meet essential welfare standards. 

We continuously reassess our practices and strive for the highest standards of animal welfare. We are always open to dialogue about our practices and welcome any feedback.

 

Thank you for your continued trust in Happy Puppy Yoga. We remain dedicated to providing a joyful and loving environment for both our four-legged friends and human participants. Puppy’s welfare always comes first at Happy Puppy Yoga 🐾💚
