WOW.

Well, now you know why she's the assistant trainer instead of a head trainer! My classes are small (5 dogs). I think you should go back without your dog sometime and ask to see her. Tell her that getting your dog stirred up so that he jumpes on her is going against why you are there for training. You might also want to mention that having a breed that is often misunderstood requires extra care in not allowing the dog to pounce on people, and that you expect her to understand and respect that. I have the same problem with people riling my dog up until he's wild, EVEN WHEN HE's in SERVICE DOG HARNESS. Every time some big oaf says he doesn't care if my dog jumps on him, I say WELL I DO and they look at me like I'm evil or something. URG! PEOPLE!
