Re: Trainer thinks we need a behaviorist...

if this was my dog, i'd finish the class for the sake of socialization purposes while i wait for the other class in march.i would not do off leash. and if class is long or too much repetition, i'd step off to the sidelines.
he is a young dog.5-10 minutes at a time is fine with quality not quantity training.
end in a good note.make it fun.find out what he likes for rewards...and eventually you wean him off or to minimum.
this is a very smart breed, but can easily be bored...or at least find shortcuts!
