Dog Training Methodology

Methods: 

  • ✓ Positive Reinforcement Only

UPK9’s obedience training includes board-and-train programs lasting two to four weeks in a structured setting, followed by in-person sessions with the family to transfer the skills the dog has learned. Programs address puppy foundations, leash reactivity, jumping, and recall, and are tailored to each dog’s temperament and the owner’s goals.

About the Trainer

UPK9 offers K9 obedience training across California, built on positive reinforcement methods that build trust between a dog and its owner. They work with first-time puppy owners as well as households managing leash reactivity, jumping, or recall issues.

Board-and-train programs run two to four weeks, giving dogs focused, consistent training in a structured setting. At the end of the program, trainers work directly with the family to transfer the skills the dog has learned so the training holds at home.

Training relies on reward-based techniques rather than fear or force, aiming for obedience that lasts rather than compliance in the moment. Each program is tailored to the dog’s temperament and the family’s goals.

UPK9 is based in Folsom and serves clients throughout California. New clients start with a free consultation so the trainers can learn about the dog and recommend the right program before getting started.
