I knew not to take her to the doggy park, but I didn't realize Petsmart would be an issue. I guess you're right but I'd like to finish the class I paid so much for. I'll just have to keep her away from the other animals (except for her classmate) when we go there. Some of my family has dogs, but I live 10 hours away from them
so socialization is limited for her.
