For my dog: group obedience of one on one
Once she's aced puppy classes, you can get an individual one-on-one trainer to help out with any problem areas she may still have.
well i belive the distractions are a good thing the real world has distractions .the most important thing is that you attend the classes do not use the kind where you drop her off and then in blank amount of time you come pick her up and bingo bango a trained dog you need too learn what and how she is learning/being tought. and she is trained to you not someone else..good luck and good quetion
Kaska is on to the right idea.
I have a female Beagle too. They are notoriously stuborn, and a professional trainer is the best place to start. Then if you intend to try to have your beagle off leash I would really work with one on one AND group training. Beagles are scent hounds and if you read up on them you will find it stated repeatedly that you should NOT have them loose or off leash because they will follow their noses into trouble without fail.
I have found that the "Leave It" command she was taught by the trainer works the best for stopping her from running off. The command is meant to address when she finds something she wants to investigate or eat that we don't want her to. When she wants to run off, it is because she has found something she wants to check out, and I think the command reminds her that she needs to pay more attention to us than whatever scent the wind has carried to her.
