Is there anyonr who can tell me about this school for dog trainers. I have heard both good and bad and am looking for more. This is the only school that i know of that is this close to Upstate New York.

I'm originally from the Cleveland Ohio area and I saw a fair amount of graduates from Scott's school. As a matter of fact, two people from Obd. clubs that I belonged to attended the courses there.
How do I phrase this in my oh so delicate manner.....
The graduates that I knew had alot of confidence in their new found "skills" and were great at selling themselves. What they were not good at tho was dog training. We laughed one graduate off the Schutzhund field and never saw him again ( althought we later heard that he opened a canine training center in a mall strip that became the local joke).
The other graduate from our club left a weak trainer and returned the same way- she wasn't even of a good enough caliber to be an assistant trainer for our classes- and this was after she took out an enormous loan to pay for her "education".
Notice that all the bite work pictures at their website show the handler virtually shoving the sleeve into the dogs mouth- oh yes, no scratch pants or apron....what high level training!
Save your money and send Tom Rose's school or Triple Crown Academy an E mail for information.

National K9 is a scam. When they take students from one graduating class and make them instructors in the next class there is a problem - a big problem. Go to the Tom Rose School or don;t go to school. Spending a fortune with some company just because they are located close to you is not a reason to do business. It makes me want to move next door - take $10,000.00 and leave. Topic closed.
