I think it’s something everyone should do. And if people are getting a dog from a reputable breeder, the breeder usually makes the owner and puppy take classes.
I think it would be hard to enforce if it was a law, and, of course, it would cause an uproar. But before I adopted out or sold a puppy, I would make the potential owner take a dog/puppy care class.
I watch “Animal Cops” on Animal Planet and my heart just hurts to see how we…the crown of creation…treat our animals. I think that mistreatment should not be a misdemeanor but a felony with serious penalties, jail time and fines.
I have read questions here that lead me to believe that folks should not be trusted with an animal unless they have some basic training.

I think it’s a good idea in theory, but putting it into practice would be almost impossible.
Think about it….ANYONE is allowed to have a human baby…and alot of people shouldnt
I think it would be hard to enforce considering all the irresponsible breeders, pet stores, etc…

You can’t legislate brains or common sense.
Just like driving a vehicle, and owning a gun. Yes, it should be a required course.
