the thing is with these "assosiation" trainers you have to still pick carefully

looking the ones in my area - i know of most of them and theres only 1 i would trust any of my dogs with - and shes a bit "old school"

the one who is closest to me i wouldnt let her advise me about a gold fish let alone a dog - her hubby runs a check chain happy agility club  ::)

I think your attitude is the most sensible; I often attend seminars and I may not like many things they do or say, but I may learn some things I do not know;  just because one watches, listens those who may not be everyone's cup of tea does not mean that you cannot apply common sense and dsicriminate between the good and bad.
