So Many Dog Trainers, So Little Time!
Before you start, interview your potential dog trainer to see if you fit together. Look for:
- Professional dog training credentials.
- More than one technique in their toolbox.
- Lot’s of happy customers and real testimonials.
- The confidence to offer a complimentary evaluation.
It is just as important that the trainer evaluate you and your pet before promising anything or quoting you prices.
