Upon watching the free video I have given my 12 year old pup another job when my doorbell rings or someone knocks on the door I now have her sit on her mat designated for when she gets her treats, so she knows it well. The bell just rang, & no bark but sat on her mat till I answered. Took only 3 days!

Dog Training
August 11, 2021

I haven't had a chance to fully go through the workshop yet but I already use hand signals while training so as I am self taught I'm sure there will be lots of hints and tips for me. Especially around stopping barking and jumping up I hope. My previous labs were amazing with training and so easy as they loved food but my current rescue Heinz 57 labs are proving to be more tricky to teach so looking forward to studying and using your free program

Training rating
August 10, 2021

The things described in the training made so much sense but I had never thought of before. These cues also made it easier for me to be calmer while training.

Encouraged
August 10, 2021

I am going to give a 5/5 score today. I am encouraged with what I have received so far, but I am just getting started. Piper is now 10 weeks old and I just started with the "watch" queue yesterday. I would say we have our work cut out for us. Hopefully I won't give up. That will be the test of whether it stays 5/5 or drops down. It is really difficult to give her the treat the one second she does make eye contact. Something we need to work on with a lot on practice.

Very helpful product
August 9, 2021

The 3 steps explained in this free tutorial has expanded my understanding of puppies/dog behavior, how to encourage good behavior in a constructive way, and gave me tools to help me communicate commands more effectively. I have had training classes in the past, and this free tutorial has added a deeper element of awareness of a gentler approach that helps me too. Happier puppy, happy family. Thanks.

I subscribed to K9 as I don't have much experience with dogs. I am looking into adopting a border collie but I have no clue on how or where to start. K9 is a great place as they keep sending me info via email and that has helped me tremendously

Training a dog
August 9, 2021

Very happy with the advice - haven't instigated it yet but it totally makes sense. For dogs jumping people always say (incorrectly) to turn your back on the dog - well mine just kangaroo at my back jumping all the time - your method makes complete sense.
