Can you become a trainer with a dog in the truck?

    @nugget...Like you I know my dogs, an I get where your coming from. I saw one post kinda mention this but my question is...your dog likes people. What happens if you get a trainee who hates dogs? Or animals in general? An for the record...a dog can eat m&ms an not die instantly. Baking chocolate is bad. USA Candy chocolate doesn't contain enough real coco to kill a dog like say..bakers chocolate. I'm not advising people to go out an feed their dog a diet of snickers an Hershey bars.

    I know raisins an grapes can kill a big dog. I wouldn't trust some random dude training with you, would tho. Stuff like that is what I would worry over more..harm to my dog, due to not knowing, or plain not caring. Then you have no four legged friend, an likely a record for beating the hell out of the person who fed your dog a grape. ;)

    I'd go with what several others said...don't worry about being a trainer. Just get your exp. an move on. Less stress for you an the pup, an any future trainee's.

    Good luck.
