We recently had our GSD 5 month old puppy Dolly go to BreakthroughK9 for the 3 week puppy course. It was a hard 3 weeks for us missing her but on the other hand she had a BLAST.
Dolly had the basic puppy traits like mouthing stuff, jumping, chewing, attention span and selective listening.

What I love about this program is that they help you get started by teaching YOU and your dog... read full review
