safe dog & puppy playgroups

rhode island dog playgroups

We host playgroups in our Sniff-it Room! We provide a safe space to play under the supervision of an experienced dog professional.

The Sniff-it Room is located in our Enrichment Center at For the Love of Dogs in Lincoln, Rhode Island.

Puppy Playgroups

We do not require puppies to be fully vaccinated. Full vaccination happens after the critical socialization period ends at around 16 weeks of age.

Required:

  • At least 1st round of DHPP

  • Negative Fecal Test Result

  • Rabies (only after 12 weeks)
