I've seen a Yorkie ruined by them and a Rottweiler in real life. Maybe they are not ALL like that, but any company who charges the amount of money that they do, and come in with negative methods is not coming near my dog. |
I'm definitely going to try training her myself. I think I have to do the obedience class before agility but I'm going to speak with them and learn about their ways before I sign up. I'd much rather do it alone, but I find I question a lot if I'm doing it right or not because I know I've done it mostly wrong until now
