Okay, I know there are a few experts here. This is my least knowledgable subject so how I always ended up with great dogs is mystifying! What are the different types of training offered and how do I decide which is best for my pup? How do you choose a good trainer? I have no trustworthy word-of-mouth opinions. I would like to stick with the same organization if at all possible if/when pup advances to other programs so I know I'll have to find a club or trainer that offers the programs I am most interested in. Obviously, I will have to get a feel for the place after paying a visit & reading the rules. Any other pointers?
Two more questions:
(1) Any suggestions that I should be doing/not doing while waiting for classes to begin? Greatly appreciated.
(2) Will any trainers or training organizations allow a harness rather than collar? I am terrified of collapsed trach until pup learns how to behave on lead.
Otherwise, Tiara is doing great and is now a whopping 2 pounds, 4 ounces at 17 weeks. I got my bag and all innoculations should have taken effect so we are going to do a lot more socialization now. I will post some christmas pics soon. Mom made her a dress!
