Foundation K9 Inc.

Foundation K9 offers three main training services: Private Training, Residency Training, and an Off Leash Program. Private Training involves one-on-one sessions with a trainer, customized to the dog and owner’s needs, focusing on behaviors like coming when called, heeling, sit, down, stay, waiting at doors, boundary training, impulse control, and other behavioral problems. These sessions can be held at their facility or the client’s home.

Residency Training is an intensive board-and-train program where dogs stay at their facility, typically for 2-4 weeks, and live with the trainers. This program focuses on correcting problem behaviors, building new skills, and making the dog environmentally sound. It includes all behaviors covered in private training, plus two follow-up sessions for the owner.

The Off Leash Program is an advanced obedience program, a 2-week Residency Program, which requires prior completion of the On Leash Residency Program. It focuses on achieving off-leash control using an E-collar to reinforce commands.
