The Volhard test is designed for puppies around 7 weeks of age, really won't do you any good to test an older puppy or keep retesting. At 7 weeks the feeling is that you are testing a clean slate and why it's so important to test at that age and not later.
I'm still very concerned about the off leash at the beginning of class with all the dogs loose. Not productive for a sensitive puppy or one who is unsure of itself. And the number of the puppies in the class? I never have more then 6, might do 8 if it's all small dogs but that's it. It's like the local gal who teaches at the community college-20-25 people in her basic obedience class! So she uses an assistant who has maybe one year of experience with just her dog.
On my soap box, but you will be spending more time correcting issues that are created by that class then actually getting a good foundation for your puppy.
Off my box,
Cindy and the crew
