Re: Any advice for this meeting with a trainer
Sounds good to me working with a trainer. The only thing I would not do is work your young dog with a older dog. When you do that it seems like the younger dog tends to follow the older dog . Cooper should be worked and evaluated on his own. IMO....Scott
