Description

K-9 clinic is a dog training school that has everything from obedience classes, to special certifications (therapy dogs, iron dogs), to fun days at the beach or park and boot camps for dogs with behavioral challenges. The clinic makes it fun to train your dog and uses a variety of methods, starting with positive reinforcement and motivation training. For dogs with behavioral challenges, compulsion training and prong collars are used. Boot camps have a high success rating for dogs with behavioral challenges and "transfer" of leadership skills and working with your dog is done in one or 2 sessions. The classes are really fun and even dogs in the basic class get to do some agility work in tunnels and on ramps so its more fun than just doing sit/stays and recalls. Distraction training happens right there in class where you can work your dog under the distraction of other dogs doing their thing. Each class will have several trainers/handlers and the owner oversees the classes and dogs, uses headsets with the trainers to guide them in classes and while making recommendations to owners as he watches the dogs and owners work together. Its a very professionally run facility and fun too!
