Hi,

Well, I think it all goes to show what I said before I left,
whoever has a good or bad experience at "any" school will formulate
their personal opinion of that school based on their experience.
Unless, they are able to be objective (which is hard in this
situation) and see that the "problem" lies elsewhere.

I cannot speak on Gails experience with the school I went to for my
dog but I would agree with you that a "positive" attitude is a
definite must because "things" can seem tough at times or not fun.

Speaking based on my experience, I have a wonderful dog, the
instructors were excellent and I must say that I feel I have had my
feet thoroughly grounded in the basics and that I am armed with a
good bag of tricks to deal with possible problems situations.

On the other hand, I am sure that now and then, the "person to dog"
match up doesn't work out. But you said it, attitude seems the key
to it all. I know that is what I had to work at keeping, a good and
positive attitude, even when seems didn't look so rosy!

So far, Toby and I are doing wonderfully.

Keepin' the faith!
