We just brought home our new baby, he is almost 4 mos and we want to get him socialized and well-trained by starting him off in a puppy class as soon as we can find a good one. Does anyone have any recommendations? We live in Long Beach but are willing to drive to OC or any of the surrounding South Bay areas.

Any experience with the puppy class at Petsmart? We are nervous that it may not be a good environment because when we were there this weekend there were A LOT of people with medium and big-sized dogs who were very aggressive and our poor little Yorkie was shaking in his paws. He is very shy and doesn't like being out of our arms in public places yet, so we want to get him used to walking around and being leashed. Thanks!!
