I have only watched the free online info, but already I have found helpful tips that I have been using on my rescue dog... and they work. She no longer barks and lunges at the door and has calmed down considerably.
Very easy way to train and easy for all household members to do. Nothing special just easier to keep consistent!
Thank you

The course makes a lot of sense. We have already been through basic training but our 4-year old rescue Luna still acts like a puppy, excitable, barks a lot, doesn't warm easily to strangers, doesn't like little kids, is very protective. She loves to be outdoors but we can't let her loose because she runs. We are senior citizens and are probably too old for her. Probably not what you want to hear in a review but we were thinking about re-homing her UNTIL we listened to your course introduction. You make it look so easy. Luna is not really the problem, as you know, it's us! We are going to use the tips you mentioned and try to learn from that but if we do decide to get Luna more training, we will definitely call K9. We were very impressed! Very very good presentation, interesting, easy to understand, good examples, great narrators.
It's rare to get some good free training. Excellent information and very well presented.
I found the video really informative, with the use cases on the problems and the directional method of solving the specific issues very helpful. I could really relate to the problems and the way in which my dog reacts. I know that I am also part of the problem so I'm hoping this course will help correct us both.
Was good I enjoy the tips and tricks given
I like that it's free
Would like more insight into trainjng a puppy
I learned a lot. She was very thuro and I would recommend the training to everyone.
I've used just the sample exercises on my dogs when out walking. Operant conditioning with body language a combined winner. Such clever tactics has changed the way I walk my pups - and their behaviour has improved dramatically.
My experience was very good, your videos were way to understand and you made it clear and it was easy to get pumpkin to follow my body language. Thank you so much.
Have yet to go through everything, it's been a very busy month, but what I have done I'm enjoying immensely. Wish I had this opportunity 2 years ago!
Loved the tips on the free dog training tutorial, applying them on my dog and seeing the results already! It's working!
I definitely learning a new way of training. I really appreciate all the tips I received from this free training. Thank you so much
I watched the workshop and was very impressed with the techniques used, especially the guidance on giving your dog a job.
I think I've found the best breeder possible! So much info/care is put into your business!
