Is it worth the money? I mean they're offering an 8-week program for $109.00 to teach your dog how to control his barking, attitude, his overall behavior, potty training, how to sit, stand, shut-up, etc.

Have you ever done one of these? Thanks.

Petsmart is not where you should go to get training done.

Which Dog Training Collar Should You Choose?

• I recently looked into training and that seems a bit high. Call your local shelter (even if your dog isn't adopted) and they can give you the name of their behaviorist/trainer. They most likely run classes and are extremely experienced if they are in charge of 'checking the dogs out' to make sure they can be adopted out.
  
  Usually their prices are comparable, if not cheaper, and you will get a better quality trainer than some of those petsmart trainers (4-6 weeks training for their employees is simply NOT enough to fully understand dog language)


• I did 2 sets of classes at PetSmart with my fearful rescue. It really helped her. Honestly, the program really depends on the quality of the trainer and how much YOU are willing to put into it. You do have homework and need to work with your dog at home. Our trainer was wonderful. She had Scotties and showed Scotties, so she took a special interest in my dog and gave me a lot of one-on-one help. I had a wonderful experience.
  
  I will be taking my new girl to a PetSmart training class once she recovers from her spay surgery. I believe you can re-take the class if you are not satisfied.


• I have taken three of my dogs to PetsMart and had a great experience. My dogs had a lot of fun while they were learning and looked forward to school every week. Cookies were involved so that might have had something to do with it. It was well worth it to me.


• I'm not sure, I would go to a local Kennel Club or independant training school before heading there.
