K9 Logic Dog Training

K9 Logic offers a variety of training programs designed to meet different needs and schedules.

The **Board & Train program** is an intensive, immersive training experience where dogs stay at the K9 Logic facility for 3 to 8 weeks. This program focuses on obedience and behavioral issue elimination, with professional trainers working with the dog throughout their stay. A typical day includes walks, three daily training sessions, crate rest, social sessions (for friendly dogs), treadmill or agility work, and field trips to public locations for real-world proofing. This program is suitable for puppies 6 months and older.

The **Private Training program** involves hands-on training for owners and their dogs through individual and group classes. Private sessions provide one-on-one instruction to address specific goals and obstacles, while group outings allow for proofing skills in distracting, real-world environments like the K9 Logic facility or public places. This program aims to build handler confidence, improve obedience, diminish distractions, and enhance leash behavior.

**Virtual Training sessions** are offered live, one-on-one via Zoom, catering to clients outside Los Angeles or those who prefer training from home. These 30 or 60-minute sessions provide guidance and advice, allowing trainers to assess situations and offer necessary information. Benefits include flexible scheduling, recorded sessions for review, and feedback on submitted training videos. This option is suitable for all dog ages and various behavioral issues, including those with nervous, anxious, or reactive dogs.

The **Online Dog Training Course**, titled “K9 Logic’s Fundamentals,” covers foundational concepts such as building food drive, increasing motivation, understanding leash pressure, using markers for feedback, and teaching basic cues like sit, down, and come.

The **K9 Logic Academy** is a professional development program for individuals aspiring to become dog trainers, walkers, doggie daycare operators, or involved in rescue organizations and other canine professions. It provides comprehensive education in dog training theory, evaluation, handling techniques, tool application, troubleshooting behaviors, puppy development, safe socialization, and behavioral modification. The academy also offers guidance on successfully starting and growing a canine business. A seminar program is also listed as “coming soon.”

Policies

For Board & Train programs, K9 Logic requires a non-refundable 20% deposit to secure a spot. Visitations are not permitted during a dog’s stay, as they have found it to be counterproductive to the training process, causing dogs to revert to old habits and become confused. Weekly updates and pictures are provided to owners for peace of mind.

For all programs, dogs must be vaccinated against Rabies, Bordetella, Parvovirus, and Distemper upon enrollment, with a fecal float also required. Rabies vaccination is not required for puppies too young to receive it. Intact dogs are welcome, but female dogs in heat should not be brought to avoid distractions.

In case of a medical emergency, K9 Logic has relationships with three local veterinarians, two of whom are five minutes away and one fifteen minutes away, and will take immediate action to ensure the dog’s safety. K9 Logic does not offer discounts for training multiple dogs from the same household due to the increased time and effort involved in individual and combined training.

K9 Logic Dog Training offers relationship-based, balanced dog training methods to help owners strengthen their bond with their dogs through clear communication. Their mission is to bridge the communication gap many dog owners face, providing easy-to-execute training methods, tools, and services to ensure success and a fulfilling, lasting relationship.

They help dogs become better versions of themselves by teaching clear communication, managing boundaries, and altering the dog’s state of mind. K9 Logic assists with a wide range of issues, including biting, fearfulness, nervousness, aggression, reactivity, anxiety, and fundamental puppy training.

The business believes in a unique approach for each dog, tailoring packages and services to suit individual needs rather than using a “one-size-fits-all” method. Their passion for dog training drives them to provide quality care and service, adhering to core values of integrity, consistency, compassion, and trust.

K9 Logic operates from a 10,200 sq. ft. facility on ¼ acre of land, located just north of Glendale. This new facility offers an in-home training environment, public access training opportunities, and proximity to community parks, dog parks, skate parks, and public locations like Home Depot and pet stores for real-life proofing of obedience.
