Maya Puppy
November 8, 2021

The information has been easy to understand and makes sense I have only just began my K9 journey and have already noticed some improvement by ignoring her barking and jumping and just walking into her space not reacting with words she is calmer

Practical and Easy Tips
November 8, 2021

I have watched the free videos and have implemented them with my German Shepard Hope. She is responding really well. Eventually I will buy the course but as a teacher, it's a bit out of my budget.

I really enjoyed the tips and even tried a few, but he is going to need more. I would love to be able to attend classes, but the amount is too much for me to handle right now. But thank you.

Most effective training ever!
November 7, 2021

I watched the introductory video and that alone has been very helpful to me! I have a 9 years old GS and spent a lot of money on specialized training that in the end was useful only to teach him all the basic commands! You don't need to pay all that money and waste all the time for hours of classes to learn basics! A GS needs way more than that in order to be safely handled in private as well as public environment! For what I saw in the video this training seems to have some very solid ground... Giving a serious thought on putting some more money into training that finally will work!

Great Intro Video
November 7, 2021

I really enjoyed watching the video and learned a lot about training my dog. I wish I could afford to go further and take the classes. I have already put into practice what I learned just from watching the intro video. Thanks for sharing.

Food for thought
November 7, 2021

The notes I learned from listening to the K9 Training Total Transformation introduction was better than I anticipated. You learn quite a lot just by following their presentation. It makes complete sense that body language is a stronger communication tool than I ever considered using for a dog.

Immediately after watching the workshop video, I used the approach suggested to stop a dog from jumping on me (and everyone else) and it worked! After a year of constant jumping, she learned in one lesson. So thankful!

Puppy training
November 6, 2021

I was frustrated and your lesson helped me to get some control back where I'm the leader and my puppy through learning about body language will obey and become easier to handle. By intermenting some easy practices daily I'm very happy at the results…

Changed My Dog
November 6, 2021

I watched the free workshop and learned so much. I haven't yet gotten the masterclass but I hope to soon. Even after just the free workshop, I was able to apply so much valuable things to my dog and I have already noticed a change. Less barking and less pulling on the leash after teaching the 2 most vital commands, watch and touch. I'm positive that the masterclass would do just wonderful for my pups.

My dog needs some help and so do I
November 6, 2021

After watching this introductory class, I am strongly considering purchasing all of the classes. My 11 month old puppy is pretty well trained, but he is showing leash aggression. I walk him every day and we have really well behaved neighbor dogs. Some of them Barney likes, but some of them he wants to rip to pieces. He's 42 pounds and getting so strong that I'm having trouble controlling him when he meets other dogs. How do I calm him down?
