K-9 Obedience Training Center

K-9 Obedience Training Center teaches obedience training through food motivation. Intimidation of your dog is NOT part of our training philosophy. Out goal is to positively motivate your dog, instill confidence, and allow your dog's personality to flourish. There are times during obedience training when your dog will make mistakes and need to be corrected. Properly correcting your dog is extremely important. You must remember that correcting your dog's behavior during obedience training is part of positive reinforcement for your dog. After making a correction, always welcome your dog back with praise and/or a food treat.

Every dog deserves an education! Sit, stay, down are three basic commands that could easily save your dog's life. Obedience training is the foundation for establishing a better relationship between you and your dog. Responsible dog-ownership is part of our mission. The techniques used in our classes are based on the principles of positive reinforcement and operant conditioning. The obedience exercises we teach have been adapted to meet the training needs of the beginning handler or owner.

Basic Obedience Training is a six-week course that meets on Tuesdays and Saturdays for one hour. Your dog will learn manners and the basic commands (sit, heel, down, stay and come). Your dog will learn to obey even with distractions. We work with the owner in always having complete control of their dog.

Advanced obedience covers practical application of obedience commands in everyday situations and polishing your dog’s obedience skill in the pursuit of off leash control. Your dog will learn to listen to you under stronger, harder to resist distractions while off its leash. This class is for owners who spend lots of time with their pets and want proper control over their dog in any situation.

The advanced obedience course enables you to establish proper control over your dog both on and off the leash. The off-leash portion of our course is extremely important since your dog doesn't live on his leash. Dogs that only learn to listen on the leash are really only half-trained. The act of you working with your dog as a team creates a lasting bond. It provides a foundation in which to correct and even prevent certain behavioral problems. The key to solving behavioral problems is an understanding of what motivates your dog to act inappropriately and knowing effective methods for eliminating these types of behaviors. When training is done with kindness and affection, it can frequently increase your dog's confidence.
