I guess you don't have to have too many smarts to qualify for a job as a pet trainer at PetSmart! |
Im a little upset... as i was A PETSMART trainer for 4 years... and yes you do have to qualify and go through a training program....
but thats besides the point... because unfortunately... not every trainer is the same... and i know that alot of people have had bad experiences with them.
ive heard alot of horror stories of people who had gone to other petsmarts, or even petcos where they were told their dogs were untrainable, or felt like they didnt get their moneys worth. i usually spent extra time with these people to prove that their dogs were in fact trainable.
yorkies were actually one of my favorite breeds to train, along with min pins, and chihuahuas who are also "untrainable" just cause it was more rewarding.
im sorry you had such a bad experience. i know there was once a trainer i was working with who use to just make things up if he didnt know the answer to a question... to try to make himself look like he knew it all...
