Hi everyone I'm very interested in finding a trainer. Money is a little tight for me... I would go to Petsmart actually I did go to Petsmart but I took her out because even though it was a puppy class there were dogs in there that were allot bigger then her and she was so young that I didn't want her to get hurt...

Anyone know of any that are good and not to expensive...

If money is tight, I bet you could learn alot about Basic Obedience from a DVD rental. Maybe the public library has some good ones? Or Netflix?

A DVD is not the same as a private trainer or in-person class, but it might get you 90% there and then you can spring for a trainer to help with any gaps. Might only need a few trainer sessions instead of a whole series.

Good luck!

There are a ton of places in the city, but I cant really recommend any.. i havent been to any myself yet.

I do get some newsletters from this woman on yorkies and she seems good. Here is the link to her training program.
