Great advice presented by our 💡🐾

When searching for a dog trainer search the same way you would any other professional that will be teaching you.

1. They should do an assessment or meet-and-greet with you.
2. They should have great reviews, and some past successes that you can see for yourself.
3. They should have the qualifications that you desire. CCPDT, years of experience, a
breadth of experience and knowledge.
4. They should train in a way that you are comfortable with or are willing and able to show
you how to train in a new way that makes you feel confident.
5. They should be able and willing to answer questions you have in any way you need.
Visually, metaphorically, and practically.
6. Lastly, they should never expect you to pay for services without evidence of why.

This is the purpose of the assessment/meet-and-greet.

Trigger warning - this shows an abusive 'dog trainer' and what this industry has wrong with it.

This is why we need some governmental oversight. 'Trainers' like this are more common than I want to think about. Please watch the entire video. Zak says succinctly what I believe.

Pick up time! One is too exhausted to do anything, two or so tired all they could do is play on the floor with each other, and one is wondering why we're not outside running still. 😆
