hey guys I just wanted to make mention of this great trainer i take my dogs to . his name is robert filar her works out of our local petsmart and he is amazing with the dogs. Allot of my dogs have been rescues and there for some have come with anything from mild house training issues to sever issues such as food toy or crate aggression .
He was amazing with all my dogs, kind and gentle yet forceful enough that they did not get their way . he has solved or atleast improved all of the problems i have had and The best part as long as you are willing to work with him and your dog he will work with you as long as it takes and what ever it takes . It is really greatly priced for the amazing quality of work that you get, a group class is 109 for 8 weeks of 1 hour lessons which teaches all the basics in the begginer class and things such as park it which tells your dog to go to their bed no matter where they are in the house in the advance course .
I believe it is 209 for the private lessons which is 4 hours ( trust me he stretches this out and you get allot more then 4 hours ) which can go over specific behavior issues such as barking , aggression issues jumping ect . , or do special training such as some service dog training like teaching a dog to pull open a door or ring a bell to go out or things like fly ball , dog dancing or showing or anything you want .
This guy really knows his stuff and at the price is a steal for the program he offers TRUST me I do not believe this is all petsmarts this guy just really loves the dogs and goes the extra mile to help people . he works at the whitemarsh store on pulaski highway maryland . here is the contact info the store # is 410-687-6101 and his voice mail # is 1800 465 7387
