Thanks for the post, sure sounds interesting! I'm sure that you'll be pros by the end of the class!!!!!

In all of the classes we've taken, for the first few classes, I try to get to class at least 20 minutes early to let Bear do his sniffing and get comfortable in his surroundings. By the time class is started, he has checked everything and everyone out and I find he is a little more focused.

Maybe this could help with your pooch?
