I am looking for a GOOD dog obedience class here in BG. I am currently in one now and I think it stinks!! Its a six week cores and just in to the first class at the fair gounds. This man that teaches is an _ss. He tells us no poop on the mat or you will clean it and I hate dogs who bark. He even told so women her dog was Stupid. I am afraid this man I gave my money to hates dogs!!! Maybe women too (they seen to be the ones he gives a hard time to. Help!! I'll take anyones advice!!!

I am in the same class.  I and my dog have learned a lot so far.  My take is that the instructor is interested in the class making progress and having a well-mannered dog.  After one session, my dog is helling, sitting, staying. 
What more could I ask?   I like the instructor.  He knows dogs and comes from a family who raised dog.  I agree that there should be no "poop" on the mat.  And of course, the owner should clean it up!  We walk our dog in Wintergardern Woods and there are people there, too, that think the park's personnel should pick up the messes.  That is wrong thinking!  And NO dog should be barking in an obedience class!  What a nightmare that would be.  That is part of "obedience".  Like a baby screaming in a theatre!  What  a distraction.  As for women, I noticed that the instructor has helped one woman a lot.

I don't recall any dog or woman being called stupid.  I think you are being far too sensitive.
