What do you guys think of Dog Obedience Training at PetSmart?

Im interested in taking my dog to obedience training at Petsmart. If anyone has taken the classes Id like some feedback..... was it worth the money? did it seem like they were training your dog hands on? did the trainer personally helped with issues, or did he/she just basically read out of a book out loud to everyone? how did the trainer interact with each student? did it feel like a personal session or di it seem overcrowded and hard to keep up? thanks in advance.

Potty Training my Puppy. Instead of buying a crate, can I just put him in a small area with baby gate?

I have an 18 week old Shih Tzu puppy that I just got a week ago. He was already 100% potty-pad trained before I took him home. I would like to break that habit by taking him outside the house to potty instead. I've been reading a lot of information on it and I've come to learn that it is best to use a crate during potty training during times when a puppy is unsupervised. My question is if it would be just as effective to leave him confined in a small area (more or less about 3x3 feet) with a baby gate to keep him in instead of a crate? Would that work just as well?

Any suggestions on how to make the transition from pad-training to going outside the house? I would really appreciate any help. A million of thanks in advance.
