What age is the appropriate age to start enrolling a puppy in training classes? The trainer at PetSmart said that anytime between 8-10 weeks, but she won't have all her shots by then, i thought she needed to stay home until at least 16 weeks when her shots were all completed and another 2 weeks go by after that...

i don't want her to get sick around other dogs, and the other dogs are always on leash, but still should Sadie be around any other dogs until she's done with shots??

someone shed light here on who was right?
