These days, it’s even harder to get your dog out for training. So we bring the training to you, with TK-9 online classes and webinars.
Our online classes include weekly live virtual meetings featuring:
- Real-time instruction
- Q&A sessions
- Step-by-step instructional videos (accessible whenever you want them)
- Basic Obedience: Loose Leash Walking ONLINE
- Intermediate Obedience: Beyond the Leash ONLINE
- Purely Positive Puppy Class ONLINE
As we said, no two dogs—and no two owners—are alike. That’s we offer such a wide variety of classes. Each one emphasizes a balanced relationship and clear communication between you and your dog. Choose an in-person group class where you and your dog work with the distractions of the real world or an online class where you and your dog can learn in the comfort of your home (and you can add the distractions later).
Our Puppy Training Program is designed to reinforce desirable behavior in puppies up to six months old. We also offer daycare specifically designed for puppies, where young dogs can burn off excess energy while learning how to “play nice” together. While our in-person and online Purely Positive Puppy Classes can help you teach your puppy important behaviors like “sit”, “stay,” and “come”—and deal with issues like potty training, jumping and chewing.
Problematic behavior is usually a symptom, not the problem itself. Our one-on-one behavior modification sessions help identify root causes like adrenaline addiction, poor social skills or a lack of trust.
We can then help correct those problems through nutrition, improved communication, or re-balancing the relationship between you and your dog.
Tell us what skills you need your dog to learn and we’ll work with your dog while you’re at work! Then we’ll arrange follow-up classes where you and our trainers work with your dog to reinforce the new good behavior.
For puppies and dogs older than 6 months, we offer special 2-to-3 week Obedience Board & Train programs focusing on on-leash and off-leash behavior. For puppies under 6 months, we also offer Board & Train sessions to imprint desired behaviors. And we provide potty training for dogs of any age
If you prefer a more focused environment, if you can’t keep a fixed schedule, or if you have concerns about group training, private sessions are available. By observing how your dog behaves when you’re present, we can help resolve any issues and strengthen the ties between you and your dog.
It’s serious and it’s fun. If you want to train your dog in sports such as Rally, Nosework, Agility, Competitive Obedience and IGP, TK-9 is the place for you. Our founder, Tecla Walton, has numerous awards across multiple disciplines and will work with you and your dog. It’s a great way to deepen the bond with your dog, build confidence and reinforce training—not to mention making friends with other handler-dog teams.
