Therapy Dog Training - What Are the Various Methods of Obedience Training For Dogs?
Recommended Answer:
I would not recommend PetSmart. In fact it is best if you do the training yourself. It may seem like a huge task to bear, but your dog will respond MUCH better if he knows you are the leader of this training. There is a course online that I highly recommend. I couldn't believe how fast my dog picked these things up, and it's fun too. Here is a link to the website:

Dog Training Methods - Methods Used in Pofessional Training Classes
- Do you have a PetSmart near you? They offer several levels of obedience classes for about $110.
- If there are no local training classes, you might want to check out your public library. We found a great video that gave pointers from a professional & did most of the work ourselves. You could try this until you can locate a trainer in your area. Good luck!
- Here is what I found for you
http://www.moreheadstate.edu/oce/index.a… - DO NOT GO TO PETSMART FOR DOG TRAINING! These "instructors" are NOT professional dog trainers. They are usually cashiers who have watched a video and taken a test and then are called "dog training instructors". I found that Morehead State University offers Dog Obedience classes. There is also a boarding facility in Clearfield called the "Tin Woof Inn" that seems to offer training classes. Good luck!
