They must be out of business. I have emailed several times, left voicemails and even drove to location for a small dog puppy training class they have listed on website. No sign of Karma dog training!! read more

Our puppy did puppy kindergarten classes and really enjoyed it. The socialization was great! We learned the basic commands in class and would build on them at home. Classes were on time and kept small each week. The instructor gave good feedback and was always happy to answer questions before, during, or after class. Prices are reasonable as well for group puppy classes. I felt our puppy was safe in the class even though she hadn't completed all vaccinations. We disinfect our shoes before entering. I removed two stars because I feel communication was very poor. It was hard to get a hold of anyone. I often had to leave voicemails when calling the main line and didn't always hear back. My dog was out in the wrong class initially for large dogs (she was 3 lbs at the time) and I had to stress about moving her until I could finally get someone to answer my calls and switch her. After finishing my puppy class I asked twice about the intermediate class and never heard back. It shouldn't be that hard to continue to spend money. The instructor didn't always reply to emails and I wasn't set up with the online learning center until a few weeks into class. I had to ask several weeks in row to get access to the online learning portal before it was sent to me. read more

We had a great experience with Karma Dog's Puppy Kindergarten class. It's one of the few opportunities to give young puppies who haven't completed their vaccinations an opportunity to socialize safely--between that and the obedience lessons, I think it was a huge part of Bridget growing into a sweet, well behaved and well adjusted pup. The trainers were always so welcoming, warm, and knowledgeable. Special thanks to Natalie for always tailoring the class to the size and energy level of the pups, and for her patience and advice! read more

Worked with Maryna for a five day reverse board and train with our 4 month old cattle dog. He is very fearful of strangers and she was kind and patient with him. She provided daily pictures, videos and updates. He has a long way to go but we already are seeing improvements! read more

Alannah came to my house to help train my new rescue pup. She was very knowledgeable, taught him several commands, as well as teaching me a lot. read more

I signed up for private lessons with Maryna and WOW!! She is amazing!! My corgi puppy was off-the-walls-crazy and she was able to help us understand him and train him according to his needs (he's a play-motivated boy, not food-motivated like most dogs). I am quite experienced with adult dogs (I've had 3 over my lifetime) but having a puppy was a whole new ballgame. Maryna was able to train me with patience and very clear instructions. Through her help, we have learned: recall, sit, stay, down, rollover, pose, and spin. She also brought her own dog to help my little boy learn how to socialize! Above and beyond!! 10/10 recommend to anyone, even if you do have previous experience with dogs. I will definitely ask Maryna for any help with future training! read more

Karma Dog Training - My good boy! - Pet Training Near Me - San Diego, California

My pup, Oliver, just graduated from the puppy kindergarten + socialization class with Alyssa Kohler in San Diego. The training for basic skills (sit, down, come, go to bed, leave it, look) was taught through a live Zoom class and Oliver was able to easily pick up the skills with Alyssa's instructions. Plus, Alyssa was able to see all the pups on camera, provide 1:1 real-time feedback, and take questions. What I loved so much about this program was that following the Zoom class, I dropped Oliver off at a 45-minute in-person socialization class where Alyssa and her team taught the dogs how to play together. (I also loved that the socialization classes are organized by size and temperament of the dogs.) The owners don't go in the building (because global pandemic) but can watch their puppies play through Zoom! Such a good experience and I now have a well-trained little guy! read more

I was fortunate enough to have trainer Ashley from Karma live with us and train our golden retriever puppy for 12 nights. The Total Immersion Program and philosophy was entirely new to me, and I was apprehensive about a stranger living in our home. In walks Ashley and I knew immediately that the experience would be good. She very quickly became a family member without intrusion and an excellent dog trainer. I can't say enough positive things about her. She immediately was in complete control of our puppy and taught her sit, down, stay, and leave it in a short amount of time. Our puppy has never had an accident in her crate, and sleeps all night without a peep. Thank you Ashley- I miss you!! Karen Feldman read more

We had the privileged of working with and learning from Maryna. We chose a plan for our pups where she would provide in home training for 2 weeks, 3 hours a day. She was always on-time and worked hard with our 2 pups to desensitize their barking habits and help with leash training. We also had 2 1:1's with her where she downloaded us with a wealth of information. Our pups learned so much; and so did we. Our training ended a couple weeks ago, and we continue to work with the tools she gave us. There was a tremendous improvement in the 2 weeks she was helping us. The program as a whole is very well thought out and the customer service form Karma Dog Training was 'top notch'. We would highly recommend them and use them again in the future. read more

Alyssa is amazing!! I reached out to Karma Dog Training because I want to train my little 8 week old Siberian Husky with positive training methods. And Alyssa did exactly that! Our husky puppy, Violet, had such a fear of dogs that I didn't know how to help her have the confidence to approach even the friendliest dog on her own. So I hired Alyssa to help give Violet the confidence to meet our friend's dog. Within one training session, Violet came completely out of her shell. She started as a shy fearful dog hiding in her crate, to a happy excited puppy just wanting to play with my friend's dog. Thank you Karma Dog Training and thank you Alyssa!!! read more

Through the puppy kindergarten class, Ashley Bartlett gave us the tools to be confident and successful with our new puppy. We had never had a puppy before and were pretty nervous when we got our 8-week-old German Shepherd / Husky mix. Before we started the class, he nipped me (but not my boyfriend) constantly; we had no idea how to teach him basic commands; and he was extremely timid around other dogs. By the end of class, his nipping was nonexistent; we had a whole set of commands to communicate with him; and playing with other dogs is now his favorite hobby. We could not recommend this class enough for both new and experienced dog parents. Ashley uses positive reinforcement in her training methods and provides extra tips to try if you are facing a specific issue. She is also incredibly flexible in terms of making up classes, which helped with our busy summer! We definitely plan on continuing the next set of classes, available through Karma Dog, with Ashley! read more

Karma Dog Training - Our puppy, happy and content, after another great puppy kindergarten class! - Pet Training Near Me - San Diego, California

We are so pleased we chose to use karma dog training for our new puppy Grizzly. It was so important to us that Grizzly got to socialize with other puppies during such a critical time in his development. Karma offered a two part training session that involved an hour long zoom training session and an hour long in-person puppy play session (owners were not present due to Covid, but we got to watch them on zoom which was great!). We were skeptical of doing training virtually but it actually worked out really well as the puppies could really focus on training without the distraction of the other pups. The hour long in person play session was great for building up Grizzly's confidence as well, and he always came home nice and tired! The trainers did an excellent job of putting puppies in groups that played well together. Our trainer Alyssa Kohler was great to work with, and always available for questions about puppy behaviors that we were encountering outside of class. 5 stars! Thanks Karma! read more

I can't recommend Corrina at Karma Dog Training enough. We adopted a new 5-month-old puppy, Nova, who is a Harrier (scent hound) and can be quite the handful. Both Karma and Corrina have gone above and beyond for us and we couldn't be happier! Look no further for your training needs! Karma Dog Training: After owning Nova for 4 weeks, we needed to board her with no notice for a week. Karma Dog Training went out of their way to find us a trainer who could take her that night and was very understanding of our situation and laid everything out to make our situation as easy as possible. Corrina: We have nothing but great things to say about Corrina. She did a wonderful job with Nova during her 7-day board and train. Nova is listening so much better and is obeying so many more commands than she was when we left her. Corrina shared videos and photos during Nova's stay and even face-timed us to show us how well Noca was doing. Corrina truly cares and shows it in every email, text, and phone call. She is patient as we asked all of our questions and really took the time to make sure we knew how to maintain Nova's training when she got home! 5 stars to Karma Training Team and 5 for Corrina for an amazing experience overall! read more

We took basic communication with our pup in Pasadena with Vikki and had a great time! Learned a lot and would definitely recommend.

Puppy class was both enjoyable and informative for me and my fur baby! Samantha was so knowledgeable and fun to work with, 10/10 recommend!

Sam's puppy class was SO informative and fun!! The instructor was very knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend!!

At first we weren't sure of how an online training program would work for our new puppy Koda but our expectations have been surpassed by the training program from Ashley Bartlett. I loved how she broke up into parts the different commands and showed us how to properly set up our Koda for success. I highly recommend this class to new puppy owner, whether they are experienced or not, Ashley will teach you something new with your dog. read more

Alyssa Kohler was such an amazing trainer for our Jack Russel! She was patient and determined to find the solution to our puppies barking and anxiety on walks. She was flexible with our schedule. She always sent us updates throughout the week on things to work on. Kaia will miss her very much. It was what we looked forward to every week! read more

My husband and I were starting to get a little panicked with what to do with our 8.5 week old basset hound Gus. We live in an apartment, don't have access to a safe grassy area, and he can't be fully let out until his third set of shots at 14 or 15 weeks -- and yet they're supposed to be socialized by 16 weeks... we were very confused about what to do with this conflicting information. We were delighted coming across Karma Dog Training, and specifically Aimee and Diana's Puppy Kindergarten class, which is held in La Jolla. Gus gets plenty of time to play, socialize, and get out that puppy energy, as well as learn some skills. They are wonderful. Not to mention, I've started getting really invested in the other puppies in the class -- it's so lovely to see them all growing and improving each week! Highly recommend!! read more

I work with Amee, who teaches the puppy kindergarten and puppy 2 classes. I also went to the PetSmart obedience classes. The difference is night and day. I have a border collie puppy who's extremely intelligent and i train her every day. Petsmart forces you to take the puppy beginners class before the intermediate and my puppy didn't learn a single thing. Further, they give your puppy ZERO socialization despite having 6 other dogs in the class. Finally, the petsmart trainer doesn't seem to pay much attention to my puppy because she already knows everything being taught. On the other hand, Amee's class allows a full 30 minutes of structured play, which is what a high energy puppy like mine NEEDS. Play time is a fun training session where my pup learns how to interact with other dogs and we're taught how to enforce boundaries. Even my smart border collie is learning something new each and every class, as opposed to being bored out of her mind in the petsmart class. I've recommended amee to every dog owner I meet who's looking to train dogs. Notably, I've had Amee come over to work on resource guarding with my pup, and the behavior is starting to vanish. Even without buying a session, I feel like I can ask Amee questions here and there when I'm lost and don't know how to proceed with certain things. Most importantly, she seems to genuinely care about my pup. Our private sessions don't seem rushed and I often have to remind her about payment because amee is more focused on making sure our issues are handled. read more

We just recently completed a private training package with Maryna and it has been a complete game-changer for our entire family. Puppyhood has been a real challenge for us...from the endless nipping and crazy nervous energy to managing our pup being very reactive while on leash, on top of being a non-socialized COVID puppy - we were at a complete loss. Maryna helped us to turn that completely around. We learned so much and while it is a continuous process to train, Maryna has given us the strong foundation we need to navigate new situations and to continue to reinforce and train established skills. We cannot recommend Maryna more highly. She has made such a profound difference for us...and for our Jedi! We cannot be happier or more grateful. read more

My wife and I went out of town for a week and wanted to get a jump start on training for our rescue pup, Peanut. Obviously with only a week we weren't expecting huge changes but Corrina was amazing. The biggest thing we needed help with was loose leash walking, the difference was night and day when we got her back. Corrina also sent videos of her training and the last day spent a lot of time training us so we could continue the base she built. Would recommend her and Karma Dog Training to anyone! read more

Karma Dog Training is by far the best out there! I went through the puppy classes with my golden retriever and the results were incredible. He was well socialized, trained and I got the best tips from Aimee in our classes. Not only did this class help with training techniques but in creating an important bond and trust with me and my dog. I also did a few in home classes with Aimee to assist me with home and yard behavior. Incredible results. Aimee was so patient and great at explaining things to me and demonstrating techniques that set in right away. Aimee and Jeffrey are super responsive and were always available to me a phone call away. I can't say enough about the puppy classes and dog training. They are the best! I have referred many people to Karma and all with great results. read more

I wanted to socialize my golden retriever puppy Bailey and Karma was the best option for offering a safe, clean and fun environment for her to learn and play.

I saw it as a plus for this first class. And socialization during Covid was soooo important. Thank you for this!! read more

My puppy "Nira" received private lessons from Maryna and wow I was so impressed and shocked at the skills he learned. The positive reinforcement approach worked wonders for Nira. Maryna was always on-time, lots of patience and gave me very helpful tips and instructions each lesson. She held my hand through it and I was thrilled at how much Nira & I learnt and what a loving and obedient puppy Nira has turned into. A true professional on puppy behavior, connection and potty/crate/obedience training. I cannot recommend Maryna highly enough! She is the best trainer ever!! read more

I recently adopted a pup from a rescue and was nervous about getting her trained and puppy socialized during covid. While searching the web I came across Karma. After inquiring about their virtual class I decided to try it out (as the first class is trial free). After the first class I was hooked. Alyssa Kohler the trainer was awesome. The virtual training was good because my pup didn't have the distractions of other dogs and was more into training being in a comfortable familiar place. She learned to listen to me and excelled with training. I liked that Other pup owners on the zoom training asked questions which sometimes my pup was doing the same things and made me feel it's not just me! Alyssa always provided us with answers; additional websites and suggestions for things like treats and harnesses. She also allowed us to contact her outside of class with additional puppy questions or concerns. The puppy socialization class that followed and is included with kindergarten training class was perfect. My pup made lots of friends and learned to properly play with dogs of different sizes, breeds and shyness. It was very safe and I got to watch her play from the safety of my vehicle. Then each week they send you a video of the virtual lesson and a video of your pup in play group. How cool is that? So if you are like me and trying to stay safe during covid and have your puppy still get proper training and exposure to other puppies, karma kindergarten class with Alyssa is where it's at. Rosie Jack learned so much and is a social butterfly because we attended! read more

I would highly recommend Karma Dog Training. We used Aimee Burton for two home visits when we got our puppy at 9 weeks old. She was very thorough and went through everything with us food, crate and play pen, potty training schedules and even taught our dog his name, how to sit, lay down and stand up on the first day. We also used Aimee for puppy kindergarten starting at 12 weeks... it was a great class that teaches your puppy the 7 basic commands and also has playtime for the puppies so they learn to socialize with other dogs. They do a little graduation ceremony at the end of 7 lessons, you get your picture taken with your dog and they let the dog pick out a toy from the toy box to take home. We also signed up for level 2 basic obedience with Ashley. Ashley like Aimee is also very experienced. Level 2 teaches the dogs the same tricks as puppy kindergarten but now you learn how to do the same tricks more at a more advanced level. What I really like about level two is that you can stay in the class for up to 6 mo and repeat lessons that are more challenging for your dog. Ashely has taught me how to be a better trainer and my dog has gotten a lot smarter and has better manners in the last 4 months. Ashley is patient and makes time to give everyone in the class one on attention. My puppy is now 10 months and we have both come a long way since we got him. We plan to take more classes with Karma in the future. read more

Corrina shaped our new life with our puppy Zeke in ways we could have never done ourselves. After a three week session, we felt like we went from having an unruly, nippy young puppy who peed everywhere, to a sweet, fun, trainable puppy. The head start Corrina gave us helped the training process feel attainable, and the tips she gave us to continue on the path all worked when put into practice. Corrina was reachable, a great communicator, and went the extra mile to check in in the days and weeks following to make sure we were still meeting our goals with Zeke. She clearly loves animals, and is very good at her job. We saw amazing progress from the time she spent with Zeke, and she developed a plan with us that made it super easy to continue down the path towards having an actual good boy, who we love even more now. read more

Such a great experience working with Corrina! She was professional, incredibly helpful, and very kind to both me and my pup. She sent me videos and photo updates the whole time my dog stayed with her and provided us with an additional lesson once my dog returned home. Just about a year later and my dog is still well behaved and continuing to learn! Very happy with my experience and would recommend Karma to anyone looking for a safe and gentle place to bring their dog :) read more

One year old Stanley needed persistent guidance adjusting to his new life outside the dog shelter so I called Karma Dog Training after reading the great reviews and the positive way that dog's behaviors can be successfully adjusted. Maryna Volotovska was chosen by the insightful owner, Jeffrey, to train my dog, and he absolutely loved her calm demeanor and gentle persistence during every private training lesson outside in his surrounding environment. In well under 2 months, Stanley is already becoming a self-restrained, well-behaved member of his downtown canine neighborhood, while maintaining his naturally happy puppy playfulness. read more

015 / 100 - 2016 YELP 100 CHALLENGE. Disappointing. My miniature dachshund is kind of in her "unruly" stage right now (she's almost nine months old!) and we have been hearing from the daycare we take her to that she has a very dominant personality and has gotten very rough when playing with other dogs. We have never seen her do this before, so hearing all these stories of her being aggressive, stealing toys, etc. was really alarming. Obviously we did not want to put other dogs in a situation that would lead to a dog fight, so we have taken her out of that particular daycare for now and decided to get a professional trainer to help us. I called Karma Dog Training last Thursday (1/28) and was greeted with a very cheerful and very nice person on the phone. I was told that their best dog trainer (Amy) would contact me via phone with her availability, but because I called so late (7 PM?) she would probably get back to me tomorrow (1/29). In the mean time, the receptionist asked for my e-mail so that she could send me the price sheet for personal training, group classes, and so forth. As soon as I got off the phone I received it, so that was fantastic. I thought to myself "this place is great, just gotta wait till tomorrow!" Well... Friday rolled around and I did not receive a phone call whatsoever. I thought that maybe Amy was just incredibly busy and assumed that maybe she had tried contacting me but wasn't able to. I e-mailed Karma back to ask them whether Amy could reach out to me in another and gave my phone number again just in case. I got an e-mail almost immediately afterwards, so CLEARLY they check and respond to e-mails frequently. The message pretty much told me that they were still checking for availability but they would be in touch with me shortly. Well, guess what day it is and guess who STILL hasn't contacted me? They were nice enough to share some readings with me to help Mocha, but none of them had to do with dogs who play aggressively with others -- which was the root of the original issue. The articles they had rehashed everything we saw on the internet in regards to basic obedience, etc. We have since moved on to another company (Pawtopia) and are much happier with their quick turnaround/response. The people at Karma Dog Training are nice when you get the chance to talk to them, but other than that their customer service is severely lacking. read more

I do not have the words to tell you how extremely impressed with how the entire staff of Karma Dog Training response to the following incident - from start to finish. My 108 lb. mixed breed dog suddenly attacked one of the other dogs in class. The entire staff immediately jumped in, with no thoughts for their own safety, managed to separate the two dogs, taking them both outside in opposite directions. When I went looking for my dog I found her with one of the trainers, calmly walking her back and forth while in a soft, soothing voice telling her what a good girl she was. There were no recriminations, from anyone! Not one single negative word was said as to placing blame on dog or owner. We are now working on a plan to re-socialize my dog so that this will never happen again. Stephanie M. read more

Seriously?!? I cannot believe there are NO reviews on Karma Dog Training!! Come on people start adding your reviews. Since there are no other reviews, I will make this one a long thorough one. I YELP everything and luckily my husband decided to go with Karma Dog Training even though there are no reviews. He was really impressed with their website and their price. My husband and I signed our cocker spaniel mix puppy, Monster, up for the Puppy Kindergarten class and it was definitely worth it!! At the beginning of the program, Monster was 14 weeks and only 5 lbs. He was a little guy, but LOVED all people and all other dogs. He would love to go to training and play with his friends. As he got older, he would become more hyper and he was like a puppy on speed some times. Aimee would give him "time outs" and it really worked. He calmed down and was focused. We did 7 sessions which were from 2:30-4 every Sunday. The cost was $149.99, but if you mention Yelp, you get $50 off. So it's a great deal. To be honest, I wasn't into the idea of taking our puppy to training, because I've grown up with puppies/dogs my whole life and thought, "Oh gosh, there are children starving around the world and now I'm spending this money on my dog for a class...I'm one of those people." Boy was I wrong! I'm glad my husband convinced me to give it a try. Learning the proper way to train our puppy was quick and much more efficient if we were to do it ourselves. Plus, the main reason my husband wanted to take Monster to class was to have him socialize with other pups and have him get used to strangers also. My husband was really scared of having another dog with severe separation anxiety, because in the past we adopted a Jack Russel terrier mix from the shelter, but it was rough. We loved him to death, but as the years went on, his anxiety became so incredibly bad that we had to give him up to another person. I really wish we would have found Karma Dog Training at that time, because I really think Aimee would have been able to rehabilitate our little Eddie. The puppy classes are awesome! Aimee was our trainer and she's amazing! I believe she's the head director. She's outgoing, thorough, and teaches us how to train our dogs properly. She definitely is an animal lover!! She will help you with potty training, chewing, health issues, grooming issues, and anything that has to do with your puppy. At the beginning of each class, the puppies run around for a few minutes to socialize. Then Aimee explains what we will be learning and why certain things are important. Then she shows us a command and we all start practicing with our dogs. Then it's play time for a few minutes and back to training. Aimee was there to answer any type of questions. Monster is my 6th dog, so I was familiar with having and taking care of a puppy/dog. However, you can tell there were new dog owners in the class and they were scared. They asked questions about every little detail that some times was just plain common sense. But Aimee always addressed their concerns and calmed these new puppy parents down. lol. Monster learned several commands: sit, down, leave it, go to bed, and come. My all time favorite is "leave it". Monster starts getting a little crazy and I just tell him leave it and he does! It's like magic. Once we learn a new command, our homework was to practice 3 times a day for 3-5 minutes with our pups. So for the first week, we learned "sit", we went home and the training began and you have to be patient. It obviously depends on you and your dog, but just be patient, learn to train properly, because most of the time, it's our fault in confusing the pup. Be consistent and voila! They start obeying to your commands. Near the end of the classes, my husband started confusing Monster by having him do sit, down, and leave it all at once. Eventually, Monster would sit, lay down, and leave it over and over until my husband gave him the cookie. Then my husband became really frustrated and blamed Monster for not learning. WRONG. My husband was the one messing things up. He addressed the problem to Aimee and she basically said Monster is confused and thinks he has to do all 3 to earn a treat. Then we went back to training ONE command at a time and Monster was able to pick it up right away. We LOOOOOOVED the class and Aimee! We were sad that the class ended and wish we could continue to go all the time. It's a great and fun environment for the dogs to all play. read more

Maryna is more than amazing! She immediately recognized that my rescue German Shepherd Riley, was shy and had anxiety issues. I would never have been able to help him without her guidance. And now he can do tricks and go to coffee shops with me! We couldn't be more happy!! I highly recommend Maryna for one on one dog (and people) training! read more

We just finished our puppy class level 1. Everything went really well in the beginning weeks of the training with Aimee and Diana. They work really well together and know what they are doing. It wasn't until Aimee had to go on vacation that things went downhill for us. There were two other ladies that came in to help run the classes but instead of helping confused everyone in the group. Decisions were questioned between everyone in front of all of us and it was ultimately very unprofessional. At one point one of the ladies helping out started talking poorly of one of the parents saying rude comments I.e. "How do you come to a training class and not being treats?" I thought it was very disrespectful. I would've hoped Aimee would have been there for the end and most likely wouldn't have had such a bad experience. I would like to give this place 3 stars, but if Aimee is training then it is worth it. read more

I like the trainer at the Sorrento valley location a lot, Aimee is great and you just know that she loves dogs and helping people. She has a pretty bubbly personality that puts you at ease and makes dog training rewarding and not stressful. The puppy kindergarten class was terrific for my pup because it was one of the few that admitted dogs w/o their full set of vaccinations.To make sure everything is safe for the pups, people are required to dip their shoes in a disinfecting solution to get rid of any nasty germs before they enter the premise. I learned a lot of interesting tips about dog training from her, and my dog benefited tremendously from being socialized at an early age. Now he likes all people and all dogs! (Shiba's are notorious for being a little standoffish - but he's not! ) You can often find him running up to people just begging to be pet, and he pretty much will play with everyone! I attribute this to the valuable early socialization he received from this class. read more

My husband and I just worked with Aimee and our two dogs. She is absolute magic! She was able to train our dogs in about 5 minutes! Of course training me took a lot longer. She used all positive reinforcement with a gentle but firm hand. She was able to diagnose all of our problems, condense them into just a couple and then was able to train both dogs and humans. I cannot say enough good things about Aimee. Because of her, my life and my dogs lives have changed for the positive. read more

I have been attending the puppy kindergarten class for the past few weeks with my new pup and have been thoroughly impressed with the structure of the class and training tips presented. Aimee leads the class and Diana is the assistant instructor for a group that has included five to seven puppies. The trainers make sure there is ample time for both puppy socialization and important training. So far, my pup has learned how to look at me, come when called, sit and stay consistently, all with positive reinforcement. Aimee has excellent strategies for any problems/questions you have such as jumping up or anxiety in dogs. Karma is the only training center I found that includes puppies at an early age, a critical step in proper training. Our class is held at the Animal Accupuncture center and it always is clean and safe. What better way to spend a weekend afternoon than watching puppies play! read more

We decided to attend a "trial " class with Dog Karma for our puppy training. We were very happy that we did!

We look forward to the rest of his puppy kindergarten classess. read more
