Full Circle Obedience

Where to begin. We took my dog Oso into a First Steps class and it turned out my dog was very reactive and it made for a terribly awkward first group class as my dog was losing his mind the entire time. Sydney was extremely understanding about the whole situation though and transferred our registration to the "Dealing with D.I.N.O.S. (Dogs in Need of Space)" class. The class started quite awhile in the future though so we did a private class in the meantime. Sydney was so patient with Oso (he's an 80lb handful for reference) and taught us some great tips for how to start working with him and make life with his unique personality more manageable. Fast forward to the DINOS class. We just finished the 5 week class tonight and the entire experience has been great. My dog was a Grade A hot mess and I wouldn't say that he is a saint now, but we have seen a difference in his behavior both at home and on walks. He pays much more attention to us anywhere we go and is much less likely to chase the cats in our home or drag me on a walk. We even started going on runs together! We have a while to go still but the trainers at Full Circle taught us so much about our dog and his reactivity. I also LOVED all of the basis on positive reinforcement. My boy is a shelter dog and I know nothing of his history. The last thing I want to do is cause him more distress and further our behavioral problems. If you think you're dog is impossible, they will work with you and make everything so much less stressful. I highly recommend this obedience school. Picture attached of Oso because I cant help myself.
