We had a lot of fun on Thursday, he met quite a few new friends.

I looked at both Petco and Petsmart and chose Petco 110%!!! At petsmart when I was asking about the classes they were kind of rude and didn't answer alot of my questions. I also don't like how the classes were in the middle of the store with a little rope around us. (At least the Petsmart here was like that.) I knew there would be lots of people walking by with their pets and lots of distractions. And honestly I don't trust some of those big dogs being a little nylon rope away from my 11 week old Yorkie!

At Petco the trainer talked to me for about a half hour to an hour on the phone answering all my questions. Then had me and Keeley come in the day before to meet her. Petco also has the classes in a big room in the back of the store, so we have privacy and not all this traffic going through. There are all sizes of dogs, but there is alot of room and they are all on leashes. We had the choice of how close we got to each other.

And they didn't push any kind of product on us. It was all about the training. Which I loved, I'd hate if the class was about what I should buy, not about what I should do.

Keeley had quite the time meeting all the other puppies and did great with most of the lessons. (We still really need to get "Leave It" down though. I swear he can find things to chew on no matter how well I keep everything out of his reach! )
