Arlene - thanks for the kind words - we 'really' need this repeat class
so I hope we have the experience you and Moses have had! Yes - we are at Rob Cary Pet Resort and Gary O. is our trainer, and he was just promoted this past month to their training director. I love him - he has about 15 years of pit bull rescue and training the "behavior challenges" related to that breed, so I knew going in that he could help us with our specific areas of opportunity. He's GREAT........I only know one other trainer there and she is good as well - but I can really tell that Gary's large breed experience is beneficial to us in class! I also like that he's not the least bit shy about walking up to an owner and saying "if I was your dog, I wouldn't be doing anything you asked either..." and he then explains to them why.......he is willing to stay after class or arrange a one on one class if you need it. He has been SOOO good to Bryant & I - using Bryant as demo's and really complimentary of how far he came in five short weeks! He was a rooty pootie at the first couple of classes
........but really settled in and started listening after week three! Gary just explained at orientation last night that here in SA, competitive obedience is losing some appeal to agility & flyball, so they are changing their classes to accomodate that shift in interest.........
