Course Details
The format in which basic pet classes are offered has evolved over the last several years. From the traditional model of 6- or 8-week classes to less traditional models of revolving classes and focused 4-week classes, there are a lot of options available to pet dog trainers depending on their clientele, schedule and available space.
We’ll look at different models of classes, including revolving classes, focused classes, and mini workshops.
