Answer 1

Good for you! My dad teaches therapy dog classes for Delta Society.

Go to a training club that has members that trial with their dogs. Go and watch a few classes and choose one whose trainers will use different methods for different dogs. One size fits all training methods don't work very well. I would stay away from Petco and Petsmart, most of their 'trainers' have no business trying to teach.
