I took my Daisy when she was about 8 months old. I did not find them helpful. It probably depends on the trainer but they do have set rules. Daisy is very social & wanted to interact with the other dogs. That is a No No. She would never do the skill they were trying to teach. Sometimes she would do it for me at home. I went through 2 courses. Once you pay you can go as many times as needed. If I had it to do over I would not spend the money. It might be fine for another breed. kathleen1919 |
