Welcome to real life!
Getting past anger and disappointment is a process - for me it usually takes more than a couple of days. It is difficult to realize after two years of using a training facility that they do not adhere to any kind of policy on aggressive dogs. This is not the first time and I'm working my way out of being a doormat about the whole thing. Also, we stayed for the class so that Zo would learn to take things like this in stride. I was certain that following up afterward would restore my faith in the facility. This was not the case so now I am well and truly po'd.

In the meantime, I have brand new fencing for my chickens who are coming in on Saturday and have calls out to other training facilities to see where Zo would fall on their obedience training levels. Hopefully there won't be too much of a hitch in her schedule. I had hoped to get her into therapy training by May but oh well.
