Dog Training Methodology

Methods: 

  • Positive Reinforcement Only

Obedience training covers basics such as leash training, sit/sit-stay, down/down-stay, come, respect for “NO” and “OK”, stand, and leave it. They also offer behavioral training to address issues like begging, biting, digging, chewing, chasing, growling, guarding food, jumping up, mouthing, nipping, snapping, staring, whining, barking, escaping, and pulling on leash.

The training approach emphasizes positive techniques, setting dogs up for success, and rewarding good choices. They focus on teaching owners how to effectively communicate with their dogs, believing that a combination of exercise, discipline, and affection is essential for a well-adjusted dog.

About the Trainer

Karen’s K9 Obedience is a dog training business owned by Karen and Fuzzy Crawford, offering doggie daycare, boarding, and obedience training. They aim to provide a safe, healthy, and fun atmosphere for dogs with ample interaction with both other dogs and people. Their services help increase dogs’ social skills, eliminate boredom behaviors, and ensure pets are happy, relaxed, and tired at the end of the day.

For boarding, dogs are kept within the owners’ home and a privately fenced yard, with doggie doors available. They provide in-home boarding care, treating pets as part of their family and sending videos and pictures to owners while they are away.

Their training philosophy centers on positive training techniques, focusing on setting dogs up for success and rewarding good choices. They believe in teaching owners how to properly communicate with their canine companions, emphasizing that exercise, discipline, and affection are crucial for a well-behaved dog.

The business operates from a 2600 square foot indoor training facility and a fully fenced acre of green outdoor space in Pascagoula, MS. Karen and Fuzzy Crawford have over 25 years of experience working with dogs and also volunteer with local rescue dogs, rehabilitating those with behavior or socialization issues.

Accomplishments

Owners Karen and Fuzzy Crawford possess over 25 years of experience working with dogs along the MS Gulf Coast. In the late 1980s, they competed and earned titles in obedience and conformation across a 5-state area, including titling their champion dog “BJ”.

They began teaching obedience classes in Moss Point, MS in 1994, and subsequently opened their business in Pascagoula, MS in 1996, offering doggie daycare, boarding, and obedience training. Karen serves as the Vice President of Forever Home 4 Dogs Rescue, a 501(c)(3) non-profit animal rescue in Pascagoula, MS, where both Karen and Fuzzy actively rehabilitate rescue dogs with behavioral or socialization challenges.
