Thumbs up Socialization

Most people that I come across that have chosen not to take their dog to obedience classes fall into 2 groups.

The first group are trainers themselves. By that I mean people that have taken the time,energy and expense to learn.

The second group are people that think that all a dog needs is to sit, heel, and stay. They are ignorant of the fact that besides learning different and new training techniques, obedience classes are EXCELLENT for socializing. The pup/dog gets to meet new dogs, understand how to interact with other dogs, other people and new situations. It's a win win situation.
