Bark Busters dog training? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

The trainer uses the clicker training and she trains dogs for shows. Our vet set she is excellent, so we feel good about it. We will be bringing our 4 month old puppy Wrigley and our 4 1/2 old Yorkie Poo named Crosley. We want the training to be positive! Wrigley will also be going to a puppy kindergarten class!

Totally appreciate all the info I'm finding here.
I too looked into BarkBusters as well as a few other trainers suggested by the vet and a friend who has been involved in dog clubs-training, breeding, obedience-for over 50 years now and still haven't decided upon a training plan. It's mostly my indecision over group vs private classes. My first dog and I went to group classes (20+ yrs ago) and weren't very successful so I'm leaning away from group classes but individual training is very expensive.
Petsmart may be the way to go as soon as I can get the puppy to stop pooping in the car! I'm working on de-sensitizing him to the car right now.
Poor baby is scared.
