Taking a group class is highly recommended by veterinarians & trainers, and is a lot of fun too!  It's one of the best things you will do for yourself and your dog.  You will receive carefully prepared class notes covering the material we learn so you will always have them to refer to, during the class and in the future.  Enroll ASAP to work with the only CERTIFIED PET DOG TRAINER in the Bloomington area.  Only dog-friendly techniques used here!
