What many dog trainers call "dog training" does not stand up under scrutiny. Most dog trainers will actually do more harm to your dog than good. Many dogs turn aggressive and dominant after taking amateurs' Food-Bribery classes and then have to be destroyed or surrendered.
Group dog training classes are NOT EFFECTIVE for controlling canine behavior problems. It can take months or years to resolve difficult behavior problems with clicker and Food-Bribery training.
Why waste your money on ineffective group classes filled with untrained, wild, behavior ridden puppies and dogs, with uneducated, unexperienced owners and clueless dog trainers trying to control large crazy aggressive dogs?
Getting advice at a group class on a behavior problem that occurs in another environment is no more effective than reading a book on puppy or dog behavior problems. Almost all behavior problems people have with their dogs occur at the home. If you want your dog trained at your home you need to train him or her there.
Don't get bit by amateur dog trainers.
All the REAL DOG TRAINERS who get results and are professional almost always train dogs at the dog's home! Group dog trainers are usually very intimidated by going to clients' homes and usually fear being cornered and put on the spot. It's easy to get up in front of a crowd of people and pontificate at length, but not so easy to be grilled one-on-one by skeptical, educated dog owners.
There is something a lot more effective and affordable to dog owners than petshop training, group classes and Food-Bribery dog trainers. You don't need to spend weeks and weeks in classes. Good dog trainers can show you how to control most problems during the first visit to your house.
