Good questions
Before you begin.
Can I skip basic manners for a trick class?
Tricks are fun, but manners give you daily payoff. Most owners find the basics more useful first.
What if my dog is already two years old?
That is fine. Adult dogs often learn faster than people expect, with a bit more repetition for old habits.
What gear is common?
A flat collar or a front-clip harness, a six-foot leash and small treats. Ask your trainer to explain any other tool.
Will it work in a noisy place?
Skills have to be built up to noise in steps. A good package includes that gradual practice.
