6 Dogs Too Many!

[Hurtseverywhere]

When we did Cosmo 10-12 was our class size as well, same with storm when we started her I knew right away that that wasn't going to work for storm, that's why I switched to Sarah. she limits her class sizes to 4 dogs max and a lot of times there will only be 2 or 3 per class. For us it ment a much longer drive almost 1 hour vs 20 minutes, but it was a small sacrifice for better
one on one instruction.

Would your trainer consider doing something like that? I don't know if they have other trainers who could help run the sets?

Unfortunately, it's just her for the entire class.

Yeah, I've talking to my husband about trying a group that's further away. Problem is getting there on time in rush hour traffic when we both work till about 4:30 pm.
