Yeah, I don't think I'd leave a puppy with a trainer. Also, the nipping may be related to teething and might subside on its own.
We researched "how to" train on line & even watched "youtube" videos. Lucy doesn't have all commands down, but she knows the ones that we use. (sit,stay,come,no bark...)
She's a very good dog and we didn't spend $$$ training her. Long ago, I had a Wheaten Terrier that I paid to have trained. I didn't think it was worth it at the time. For a big dog, I'd probably do it but I wouldn't bother for a yorkie - unless there are real, significant behavioral issues that aren't just puppy-related.
Good luck. |
