Did your puppy/dog had training or obedience classes?
Yesterday was my puppy’s first day at a Puppy Training class at Petsmart. He’s a 13 week old shih tzu puppy.
At first I was a bit hesitant about enrolling my puppy there, but in one of the Petsmarts here in Southern CA, I found the “trainer” of all trainers! She’s the mentor of many Petsmart trainers here in the Inland Empire (California, US). She’s also one of the CGC evaluator.
She’s wonderful! The first class was already very helpful and informative! There were 2 other pet trainers in the class, and anyone is free to ask them questions. It was so cool because 2 of the puppies in that class were actually the head trainer’s puppies!
Do you have any experiences with Petsmart’s training classes or any other company’s? Did you like their techniques? How was it?!
My Papillon is now 7 months old and he is in his 2nd class at Petsmart. I put him in the class not only so he would learn obedience/skills/tricks but so I as a person could be taught as well.
I have learned so much, different techniques anywhere from how to potty train to crate training etc…
My little guy absolutely loves going – he gets to socialize, and interact with others and he really has learned – this week we finally just accomplished on how to sit on command (it was our troubled area).
Good luck…
