Ways to choose a Dog Trainer/Obedience School  (By trebon1038 (61) on 07/28/2006)

A new puppy or a newly adopted adult dog can be exciting, but it also can be challenging. Finding obedience instructors can be stressful because there are so many out there that don't really know what they are doing and these people can do more damage than good. The good ones are hard to find sometimes but rewarding once you do. I hope these tips will help you get connected with the right person. 5 = Very important
