Desi and I are enrolled in the training classes at PetSmart. We are on our 3rd lesson and I really like it. I started training her from a book at home but it was too hard as Desi never followed the instructions in the book
So, I enrolled ( $93 for 8 lessons every Saturday). The classes are given in the back of the store and though people do come around to look, they do not disturb the class. What I like is that if one method doesn't work with your baby , they have different ways in which to achieve the same results. Yes, basically, they are training us so we can train our dogs. We work on 2 commands per class as not to overwhelm them and we discuss different topics, behavior problems, habits, what products to use, etc, Also, most of the dog are the same age (4 month to prox. 6 months) so we have a lot of the same experiences and we get to share. The people are so nice and we have a nice time. I am really enjoying it (you laugh a lot- these puppys do the funniest things). Every Saturday morning I give Desi her bath and get her clothes ready for class. Desi is 5 months and 2 1/2 lbs and she never met a person she didn't like, so she has lots of friends and everyone likes her, she is the tiniest one in class so she gets lots of attention. When we drive up to the store, she practically jumps out of the car . Such a social butterfly
