    Starting Your Own Training Class?

    I was just thinking about this today, because somebody suggested it to me. But I have no idea where I would start, or if it's even possible. Would I need to insure myself somehow, or just write up a detailed disclaimer? Advertising? >O.o;< I'm thinking about a simple class, like puppy class.

    Anyway, I was just curious. Thoughts?

    I'm pretty sure you would need to be insured.  Too many risks, and you still need a detailed disclaimer.  For advertising you could try going to dog festivals and set up a booth on what classes you offer.  The group I go to always does this and typically has an agility clinic for people to try it out a little.
    I've also heard that a good place to start training is at Petsmart.  Their program is supposed to be great, and that way you can figure out if it's for you before you go and start a business for yourself.
