Dog Trainer

Have any of you used a dog trainer in the Charlotte area? Our boxer needs a course in manners so we are trying to find one now. TIA!

Re: Dog Trainer

  • I've never used them for manners, but I've heard decent things about Petsmart??

  • Looks like we are going to try The Dog Wizard. Our Boxer has been out of control due to energy that he can't release. Daycare once a week isn't cutting it and now he is counter surfing and acting out. With a baby on the way, we want to make sure he will be a happy member of our family. Crossing fingers this works.  
  • Oh man! Best wishes!

  • How old is your boxer?  Are you far from Monroe?  I LOVE dog psychology and training.  I wouldn't do PetSmart puppy or manner classes just because it's not as personal.  They do offer private sessions, but you only have 4 classes to get in all the work you need done.  I've owned a dog who we were taking for private lessons at PetSmart and they asked us to give the dog away because he was far too aggressive to handle (for anyone).  I went from there to NC State vet school to see a dog behaviorist for a year and learned a lot before we ultimately had to have our dog put down.  We have a lab-boxer now that is perfectly trained by my hubby and I.  She's amazing.  If you have any questions, message me-I'm here for you because it's not easy!
