Nervous: Update at bottom

Hey all. Just got back from vacation. :)

Hubby apparently is swamped at the office and doesn't think he can make Remy's obedience class tonight. I'm not sure I can handle him. I don't know what to do. I really want to take him. Especially since they are working on Stay tonight...but I don't want to have rotator cuff surgery tomorrow.

Not sure what to do....

Do you have a prong collar? If you do - use it for class if they allow it. I had a very good instructor who put almost all the dogs in prong collars at first for training - helps alot with a lab - but you have to know how to fit and use it correctly.

You're worried about shoulder surgery and contemplating not taking him - use the prong - just don't say anything about it. If someone says something play innocent - "oh my! how'd that get on there?" Unless they have prohibited prong collars, I'd probably go for it and just tell them you decided to use it for tonight and let it go.
