We finished Petco puppy level 1 and a Separation Anxiety class with trainer, Brittany Becker. It was nice to work on basic skills. Brittany was focused on positive reinforcement and gave me extra steps to continuously challenge my puppy. She introduced different ways to creatively use skills for behavior management. I think you get out what you put in - my puppy made great improvements with focus and following directions. Brittany was a good role model for being patient and consistent in training our dog. Thanks for the help.
Going to keep posting what an awful horrific job the Hillside Petco did on grooming my precious dog Butters....he looks terrible and they kept him there for 4 hours...this us so sad...NEVER go there for grooming..let's see if bad reviews get posted..I would love a refund, but they are won't do that...train your groomers, you should be shamed doing that to my dog!!!🤬😡
