Would agree with Archie Bean here. Branston loves going to classes. He started off on Puppy Assessment and is now practicing for his Gold. I found them a great way to socialise (not only the dogs - but the fellow handlers too) and teaches the basics, and I think Branston likes it cos it is 1 to 1 time with me.
Minstrel was not as keen, although he did his Bronze, I think it was just the wrong atmosphere/time for him, so I didn't push it.
Go for it, you have nothing to lose and will both probably enjoy it.
