How to Pick a Dog Trainer

Post by: The Quirky Dog in all
On this episode, Scott and Jess talk about what you should consider when choosing your dog trainer. This is an important decision that you want to get right. 

Topics discussed include:

  • Dog tip of the day
  • Before selecting a dog trainer, check the reviews online
  • Try posting in local Facebook groups for recommendations
  • The credentials of the trainer don’t necessarily matter – look for experience
  • What about electronic collar training?
  • You shouldn’t be pressured to sign a contract on the spot
  • Don’t wait until your dog has problems to start training
  • If you decide on a board and train program, make sure you tour the facility
  • See how the person works with their own dog
  • A good trainer does not offer guarantees
  • Should I go to puppy classes and is that enough?
  • You need to do some maintenance training over time
  • Is there any value in Canine Good Citizen (CGC) classes?
  • Make sure there is open communication with the trainer
  • If you’re not seeing results after a month and you’ve done your homework, look for another trainer
