The classes are for commands, socialisation is just a benefit. Yes they will help you a lot.

We took our dog to 3 sessions. She can sit, drop, roll, shake, hi five and more.
You have to keep at it though.

Yes and it can help you train him on obedience when there are distractions around, for example: other dogs, strangers, etc. It’s so worth it and any other little detail can be taught in the process at home. Good luck!

He will definately learn about commands, what they mean and why he should obey them at training classes! Command training is essential for all dogs.
Toilet training, unless you hire a private trainer, must be done by the owner in the home, however.
Happy huntings.

I think it could help. You don’t NEED to take him to a place you can train him yourself but i suggest watching the dog whisperer it’s really helpful our dog didn’t listen peed everywhere my dad read his book followed the advice and now our dog is like the perfect angel.

This sounds good for your puppy. It is for puppies and will help if you continue going to the next level. Your dog will be ready for it and you won’t waste time getting acclimated to being in a class with other dogs. If you and your pup enjoy it there are all kinds of fun training, like agility. It sounds like a good place to start.
