Good questions
Before you begin.
Is a pack good value?
Compare per-lesson cost and what is included.
Can I start before all vaccines are done?
Ask your veterinarian. Home lessons can start sooner than outings.
What if I miss a lesson?
Ask about rescheduling before you pay.
What do puppies learn first?
Name response, a settle and gentle handling.
