| Don't beat yourself up over this
vivianne, remember who owns the dog and who's ultimately responsible for her when the training is done so your friend has to have just as much to say and do as you. Now don't go gettin in any arguments with this trainer just politely talk to he or she and tell them you want this to be a joint participation:D and that raising Madison to be a good representation of the breed is your utmost and ultimate goal:D and to do that you must all work together in harmony :D :D. If ever their is anything that displeases you in class ask them about it, don't leave mad or frustrated if their is something that doesn't quite make sense, it may after it's discussed and explained to you ;). Always go with your gut, it's usually right in the end, so stand up tall, don't develop an attitude and happy training :D. And tell your roomate to stay tough and not wimp out:D. There will be frustrating times during all this but in the end, approximatley 3 years from now, LOL, you'll see the end result :D. Stay patient, consistent and always remember repetition.
