Finally managed to find a local training class with places available for Rueben!!
After him pulling me over yesterday :roll: I decided we really needed to go to some proper training classes. My problem was they are all in the evenings and as I don't drive and the last bus is at 6pm :roll: getting there was going to be a problem. Then I realised my friend (who does drive) has a chocolate lab called Floyd who is a month younger than Rueben so thought she might want to go too, and she does!!
Anyway, I'm babbling!
When I was chatting with the trainer yesterday she said we could go and see what it's like without the dogs of just turn up and bring the dogs and see how they go.
My question is, what would be the best thing to do? Would you go along first and see what the trainer is like (how she is with lively dogs, what her methods are etc) or should we just jump in feet first and take along our two loony labs and hope for the best?!
Any advice appreciated. Neither of us have ever been to a training class before so don't really know what we are looking for, what questions we should ask etc etc.
Sorry for such a long post, just want to get it right.
