I am beginning puppy classes at my local PetSmart today with my 4 month old pup. Would it be wise for me to have her nap before hand so she’s refreshed or to work out some energy by means of a walk or quick trip to the dog park? Curious as to which would be a more conducive temper for her to be in to learn the best. Thanks!

I have an 8 week old maltese/poodle mix, and was curious if it would be a good idea to take her to a Puppy Training Class at Petsmart when she turns 10 weeks old? I don’t know if this would help out any or if it’s just a waste or money and time. Any experiences or recommendations? Thanks.
Thanks for all the replies… seems like the majority agree puppy training classes are beneficial. I have the Petsmart training class sheet right here, but I did look online APDT.com for trainers in my area. There were only a couple, but I’m sure I’ll find something I can afford that is good.

I’m getting a new female Yorkie puppy soon and I was wondering if I should take it to the training classes at like PetsMart or some other place.
Does it really work?
How good is it and what goes on there?

Thanks!

Love,

Puppy Training?

Posted by: Admin | Comments (12)

I have a 3.5 month old Jack Russell that in the last week has become more aggressive. I know that he is teething and needs lots of toys, he’s got plenty of them. When playing, or when we take him out of the crate, he bites at our hands frequently. We’ve tried redirection, and putting him in the submissive position. Both of these are done frequently.

We’ve been doing all we can. He has to sit and stay before we give him food. We go through doors before he does. He is not allowed on the furniture, etc.

He just got his last set of vaccines, so it’s time for puppy training, which is desperately needed.

1. Does anyone have any suggestions on what else we could try at home?

2. Has anyone tried BarkBusters?

3. What are your thoughts on Petsmart puppy training?

Thanks in Advance.
I do understand that the puppy training is only as good as the trainer. Although we have done a lot of research our breed and training, we still need to be trained, just as much as our dear puppy does.
