I found a different independent training place that I just loved. They did leash training and off-leash training (no treats!). And it was less expensive than Petsmart. He learned so much and so fast, and now I don't have to depend on treats for him to listen to me.
Good luck! |
Oh I hate to hear that. We too learn w/treats but Ms. Rachel also has us do it w/o treats but lots of praise
