| Obedience Training? Just wondering how many of you out there have taken your furbaby to obedience class. Our vet has a gal that teaches classes - I am seriously thinking of taking Abby. The only command she knows well is sit. My biggest problem with her is when anyone comes over - she goes wild! She jumps all over them and runs and will not settle down! Would like to know what you all think. Jackie |

| Training your puppy is, after good healthcare, the best thing you can do to help her have a great life. Helping her understand how to please you, and teaching yourself how to communicate with her is very worthwhile. The time you spend together will cause a closer bond and in the end you will have a well behaved family member. I think it's a great idea!! |

| Teddi went to dog obedience...she was the smallest dog they have ever had there. She did great...in fact we are planning on going again to the next session just to brush up on her skills. She really liked the class and loved our teacher who teaches with LOTS of praise!! We did it through the parks and rec dept in our city. I would highly recommend it.

| i think it's a great idea. i took mocha to a obedience training class and it's going good with us. the only problem is if you don't work on your dog with the training every day and also use it everyday and you'll have to reteach him those command every time. |
