Once you've compiled a list of possible boxer trainers, the next step is to contact them to set up interviews. If possible, bring your boxer to the interviews with you.

Ask the potential trainers about their training methods, how they deal with problems such as boxer aggression, how long they've been training boxers and anything else that you feel the need to ask. Be sure to pay attention to not only their answers, but also their body language and the tone of their voices. After all, it's just as important that your boxer's trainer get along with you as it is that they get along with your boxer.

However, even after you've chosen a trainer, don't be afraid to ask about things that you don't understand, question techniques or ask for a second opinion. You and your boxer will be glad that you did.
