Thank you for your response.
Refreshing to know their are intelligent people who are smart enough to be proactive then reactive!
To bad more people don't try to do what you are doing.
I know it would fun to be involved with something like what you are doing. To bad you live so far away for me to be involved.
Mike
BTW I would game to try an be involved is all aspects.

: Mike, This isn't through the WPBTCA but I have
: an ongoing workshop/class that takes place
: here in Baltimore, in conjunction with some
: local trainers (including the WPBTCA's own
: Aja Harris).
:
: We put on a monthly class at a local
: shelters and it's designed to teach people
: the basic elements of dog behavior and body
: language, and to emphasize the need to be
: more attentive and in control of our animals
: . . . it's free, it's aimed at pet owners of
: all breeds (though we do get mostly pit bull
: people and most of them do seem to be in
: need of direction and ideas for how to deal
: with such simple things as dog aggression
: and reactivity), and so far it's been well
: received though sparsely attended. I think
: we get maybe 5-10 people per month.
:
: The goal is to head off train wrecks before
: they happen . . . it's a pretty new program,
: started up in May 2009.
:
: Hoping to grow and build it in 2010.
:
: Not sure if that's what you had in mind . .

: Some kind of affordable fee wouldn't be out
