i'm looking for another good trainer (or two). the one we've seen is
wonderful (Becky Bishop), but she only does basic obedience and house
manners type classes. Manu is ready for the next step. i'd prefer a class
that gets the dogs (and handlers) ready for their CGC or therapy dog cert.
formal obedience instruction isn't necessary at this time. there are a few
folks in town who advertise therapy dog classes, but i'd love personal
recommendations. also, dear Lola needs a job. badly. the SO has agreed to
start her in agility (i'm too uncoordinated to do it, and i think it would
be a good bonding experience for the two of them), and we're looking for a
beginning agility instructor who doesn't mind working with pit bulls. i've
been putting this off for a while we settled into the house, but it just
can't wait anymore.

we live north of seattle, but anything on the eastside, northend, or everett
area would be fine.

TIA
