Conference 7.286::canine

Help! :')  We are now completely owned (and charmed) by a 15-week-old 
Beagle girl, and we need to find her a Beagle-knowledgeable trainer.
We're in the Worcester, MA area and have visited one trainer but feel
that he isn't aware of the (food!) differences in (food!) training this 
specific (food! food!) breed.  Another concern with this guy, who shall 
remain nameless, was that the appointment before ours arrived 10 minutes
late and *we* were expected to shift our appointment to accommodate their
lack of planning.  (In my book, if you're 10 minutes late you have missed
10 minutes of class.)

Sammy (pretentious registration name: Windyknolls Samantha Artemis!) is a 
very good pup, relatively calm, and actually not as much of a
chow-hound as we expected (she's sort of indifferent to lunch; maybe she's
getting ready to go to 2 meals per day).  She understands "outside" and
"go home" (for coming back inside) and is beginning to catch the glimmerings
of "get down" and "drop it", but I know we need a good weekly class and 
guidance on how to do it at home.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Leslie
