Every thing is not always black and white. There are some dogs who train differently or can't be trained. You don't want to tire them out by making them train like a circus dog at the most you would do it two times a day for 15 minutes any more and its to much. You can also ad it in to daily routines. I have taken three different classes with Joey. The thing about trainers is they know more then one way to train a command encase one doesn't work. You have to be open with them. Most trainers don't offer your money back. Training is an awesome way to bond you and your dog. You can also find out what your dog is good at like Joey did basic OB but he is a bit hyper for that so we decided to try a tricks class and that is more his thing. A lot of places offer different types of fun classes so try to have fun also not just work.
