Why Online Dog Training?

K9-1 Specialized Dog Training Review There are plenty of gimmicks and opinions, but no regulations in the dog training industry – therefore there is no guarantee that a trainer you choose will be effective or respectful to you and especially your dog. A dog will only be as good as his/her leader and teacher. That is why the best trained dogs are always trained by their own owners. Let one of the most respected dog training companies in the industry show you how to guide your dog to his/her fullest potential. We are trusted by veterinarians, humane societies, dog training professionals, government agencies, and media networks as an expert in the field. We are proud of our A+ Better Business Bureau rating and long history of client satisfaction!

What Dog Training Methods are Used?

Dogs learn best when the teacher has a deep understanding of their natural behavior. Although we firmly believe that dogs learn quickest and most willingly through positive reinforcement and calm leadership, we also understand that consequences are a natural part of every living creature’s life which ultimately help them survive in a complex and very real world.  Therefore, we let you make your own decisions based on your personal beliefs. There is no need to worry about a trainer pressuring you to adhere to their own beliefs when it comes to your dog. You will learn how to train your dog through positive reinforcement, and if you feel you would like to also teach your dog more reliability, we can show you how to do it in the most gentle and effective ways known.  A naturally balanced training method is our specialty.

A Unique Dog Training Style

Dog Training Door - Area 51

Besides being diversified in their methods, K9-1 Specialized Dog Training is credited with a unique style of dog training called “Foundation Style” dog training. This style has developed over many years of fine tuning a technique that works well for even the most difficult dogs. This style makes it easy to troubleshoot difficult and deep seeded behavior problems – often with complex layers. Also, foundation style training takes complex scientific behavior terminology and transcribes it into “Layman’s terms” and easy to understand charts and graphs. Hands on obedience training is broken down into small technical steps that set the dog and owner up for success.  Another favorite teaching technique in the style is the use of putting us in the dog’s position to help us understand better what training is like to the dog. It might be a little silly, but it also helps enlighten us.

How Much Does Dog Training Cost?

The literature, self help info, online training videos, and support found on this site would easily cost you THOUSANDS of dollars if delivered through private instruction by a trainer. Because it is inexpensive to deliver this information online, we have plenty of free information here, or you can become a member for only $19/month. Members receive access to the full self-help section, instructional videos, and support forums. Plus, we make it easy to cancel with a click the moment you do not need our help anymore. If you join and feel that this is not a good value, we will give you a 100% refund. Just send us an email and tell us how to improve the site for future dog owners like you. We are determined to make this ever growing site the best it can be. You have nothing to lose!
