The truth is that proper dog training can be simple for anyone who is willing to educate themselves on the best way to communicate with man’s best friend. […]
We tried PETCO’S dog training a couple years ago for $90.00 in Virginia. But it really wasn’t helpful for us at all. Our Jack Russle terrier mix ( from pound) was attacked as a puppy and suffered other dog aggression/ fear. Only Bark Busters addressed her problems- more exoensive but well worth it!!
Before you go to Petco and do training there I would look around where you live and see if there are any other options. I am sure the dogs get some training at Petco but I have heard from a lot of people that they don’t do a very good job there and that the dogs that they brought there didn’t learn anything. I am sure that it depends on which petco you go to and who is running the program but it might be better if you found a trainer who trains dogs for a living and compared prices. Also just call Petco and ask them their prices because I think it depends if you go to a group class or if you want private training time.
prices vary..depends on what class you want to take! Give them a call!
I have had great luck doing it myself, just get a book and consistency is what make a well trained dog.
I think the puppy classes are around $60 to $80 and they are good for the puppy and the owner. You will learn a lot. It’s also good for your puppy to socialize with the other pups in class. At the end they have a little graduation ceremony, its fun.
I believe here in Miami, it was $99 if you had the P.A.L.S card. Be careful though, when I was looking into it, they did not have an instructor or schedule of classes yet but they wanted me to pay upfront. I said no thanks. I now take him to the Humane Society puppy classes for free.

Call Petco and ask them.
I’d recommend calling your local Petco and ask them. I just completed a class with PetsMart for $99 and it was awesome. However, I’d recommend you pick up the book “The Loved Dog”. It has some great info on training and it’s all with positive reinforcement. Great resource. I’ve trained several of our dogs and it’s always good to go through a class with a new puppy. Socialization for them and reinforcement for you.
