Conociendo a nuestros compañeros.
March 26, 2026

Los consejos y sugerencias que nos brindan para nuestros amigos y compañeros son de un gran valor ya que en ocaciones o la mayor parte del tiempo desconocemos como con una pequeña orden puede cambiar el comportamiento de nuestros compañeros haciendo que esto sea para una mejor comunicacion entre nosotros y ellos y que tambien llega a la sociedad que compartimos con ellos. Gracias a ustedes como profesionales del comportamiento animal.

This is working great we still have a few issues to work on. Thank you the body language make so much more sense to me. I wish I new about this year's ago. Thank you Brewster is an elkhound. He is 6 years old. He is just like it says about the bread. Stubborn. Needs a job. Would rather play keep away. He will not fetch. He has stopped running out the door. He will let me go out first. Getting better. I would like to use him as a therapy dog.wish I knew where there was a trainer in my area that uses your k9 program.

The Free Video was very helpful to get me thinking differently about approaches to training my 4 year old sweet mutt, Karli. I am already using more body language, and she is picking up on the initial cues very well.

Great teachings
March 14, 2026

Absolutely great. I wish I could afford the master class as my lil shadow and the love of my life has mast cell tumours and was diagnosed with grade 3 mitotic count 37 so im wanting him to have peace as he is a reactive dog and I cant even walk him as he gets to stressed out. But I really need to walk him as his lymph nodes are swollen and need to drain. Also I am getting a puppy next week as Im so scared of the thought of losing Diesel and I always have to have a dog in my life but by no means am I replacing him but hoping it will make a lil easier as he will love the puppy too. Would luv to do yr master class for my dog and puppy. Your teaching definitely make a lot of sense. Sorry for the long review. 😆

It only took me a couple of days to teach my dogs to not jump when someone comes through the front door. I have tried to teach them on my own and could not believe how easy they changed behavior with simple changes on my part.

Great Organization
March 6, 2026

The free workshop was so incredible. This is my first time ever training a puppy or dog for that matter. It's always been my husband. The content had things I had never heard before as far as training. The content was easy to follow and understand. I took notes so I can refer to them later when needed. Thank you K9 Training Institute for not only giving this workshop for free but also showing me how to properly train without treats. I highly recommend this to everyone.

Training tips

I have only viewed the free training videos and have already found the information helpful. I have a new puppy and a reactive older dog. I want to help my older dog with reactivity so my new puppy doesn't pick up his bad habits.

Eye opening easy to start
March 1, 2026

We have 2 doodles 5 years old and the simple fixes for several problems were easy to use and successful within just a few days. They are calming dogs with occasional bad habits. I hope to continue working with them to make them easier to take out together..

Happy Ziggie.
February 28, 2026

The advice is priceless. Ziggie is now walking beside instead of pulling me along on the walk. Just now to instill the same with her sister Lillie. One at a time works best.

Well done for your training videos
February 25, 2026

Great videos of how to train our dogs in different areas. I will be applying this training to my dog as she grows.
As I am in Australia, your converted $ price to the membership is too expensive for me, I'm sure it's worth it but I don't work so have to be careful.
Keep up the good work.
Tori
