Even more the reason not to "send her away"; this could end up having lasting effects on your dog (i.e. separation anxiety; abandonment issues).

Sending your dog away is not the "miracle" you think it is; I know several dogs who have gone to a highly praised kennel/training center. They have come back unchanged (besides growing up ) Unless you go to class with her, it is nearly impossible to understand (and repeat) all the training techniques this "kennel" has taught her.
