My dog Gracie and I are in the beginners class at Petsmart. Gracie is a year old so we thought the beginner level would be best. I have a rather large class because it's on a Friday night. There are 7 other dogs but they are always on a leash. We usually learn one task a week to practice for the next class.
I'm glad we took the class. I think it helps socialize the dogs. We've learned how to sit, stay, "leave it", come when called and walk on a leash. I wasn't sure what to expect when I took the class but it's fun for you and your dog. I was afraid to be put on the spot and have to do things in front of people but it's not like that. This week is graduation and there will be a little ceremony complete with picture taking in a graduation hat. I would recommend it.
