When our relatively well-behaved Bullmastiff, Bella, was 2 1/2, we decided that she could behave even better. At the time, our baby was 6 months. We wanted to reinforce Bella's training and build on our relationship.
We enrolled in Susan's Basic Obedience class. Bella LOVED going to class with Susan and all of the other dogs. All dogs ADORE Susan. Bella was the oldest in the class, and it was actually great...Bella thought she was a superstar since she had a head start on some of the commands.
We followed that class with the Intermediate Class and Bella loved that one as well....mastering the obstacle course.
It was a GREAT experience for dog and owner. It gives you a chance to dedicate your attention and praise to your dog, so reinforces your relationship. I highly recommend it!
