Question on Google
I have a Jack Russell Collie mix and he has been attacked twice once by pit bull once by German Shepherd. He is now exhibiting aggressive behavior. Do you think he would benefit from retraining and socialization with other dogs?

I'm not sure I'm qualified to answer that but if you called them they will call you and I'm most certain they can help you with your dog

I didn't have a great experience here. They only use old school training methods like choke collars (proven by multiple studies to not work/discouraged officially by the AVSAB) and denigrate positive reinforcement training. They tried to tell me with a straight face that harnesses cause more damage than a choke collar because a dog's chest is weaker than their trachea. Their method for teaching a dog to "leave it" involved forcefully yanking a dog by the back of their neck. They called my dog aggressive and fearful when the owner shoved her hand in my dog's face and it backed away. Honestly the trainer I had was downright rude when I came into puppy class with a dog who already had the basic commands down when I managed it without the heavy-handed method they preached. The only reason it is two stars instead of one is because I got two decent pointers during the sessions.
