Dog Training Methodology
Methods:
- ✓ Positive Reinforcement Only
The K9 Training Academy offers a structured progression of training programs. It begins with Puppy Kindergarten for puppies aged 8 to 11 weeks, a 10-day program focusing on potty training, leash training, sit command with positive motivation, no jumping/biting, name recognition, crate adaptation, the “NO” command, and socialization.
This is followed by Puppy Kinder Level 2 for puppies 12 to 16 weeks old, a 15-25 day program that expands on Puppy Kinder with on-leash obedience commands (Heel, Sit, Sit Stay, Down, Down Stay, Come, Crate, Place, No, Good). For dogs 15 weeks and older, Basic Obedience Level 1 is a 15-25 day board and train package covering on-leash commands and focus. After completing Level 1, dogs can progress to Basic Obedience Level 2, a 20-25 day program for dogs 6 months and older, focusing on on-leash obedience with distractions.
Advanced Off-Leash Obedience is offered after Basic Obedience Level 1, a 20-25 day board and train program for dogs 6 months and older, including on and off-leash obedience with distractions and environmental soundness, with a lifetime guarantee. The most popular option is the Basic & Advanced Obedience Combo, a 30-45 day board and train program for dogs 6 months and up, covering on-leash and off-leash commands with distractions and public access training, also with a lifetime guarantee.
Specialized programs include Service Dog Obedience Training, which prepares dogs for various environmental conditions after completing basic and advanced obedience, and Service Dog Task Training, which teaches specific tasks like wheelchair assist, bracing, and medical alert. Protection Training is also offered, requiring an evaluation to determine suitability, as not all dogs are candidates; it focuses on natural protective instinct rather than aggression.
