Me and Pepper are taking basic obedience classes right now, infact, we have a class tomorrow, lol. After we finish Basic we are going on to Advanced and then on to agility classes. He is doing great, espcially for a dog that no one ever attempted to train until we got him at 10 months, and we was completly unruly when we got him. Obedience classes have done wonders for him.

We are going to compete in competitive obedince with him and i hope to get his CGC and CDX.

I would never not take my dogs to obedience class. I think it's very important in raising your dog to be an acceptable member of society. Not only are you training your dog, but you are socailizing them, when you train at your house they don't get the socialazation and you don't have an experienced trainer. But thats just my opinion
