June 16, 2021

This sounds like a great offer and would help in training my new puppy, BUT I the worst internet service due to rural living and a laptop that drives me crazy. Thank you for the information that I was able to get if was VERY informative. I will try using it on Cleo when I get her.

Easy to understand

I was so pleased with the free presentation, so much so I shared with my friend who has a new puppy. The training was easy to understand especially with before and after videos

Dog training that works fast
June 16, 2021

The dog training tips work not only very well but also fast. The results are brilliant and my dog loves the training sessions. The tips are easy to follow and easy to work through. I had a professional trainer work with my dog and I for my previous dog. The results took much longer and also took greater effort on behalf of all of us. If you have a dog, use this method. You and your dog will both be so grateful.

Training made Simple.
June 14, 2021

Had dogs all my life. Don't know anything about training. Got a Golden Doodle puppy a year ago March. He's now 75lbs. And he's always excited about going for a walk. Tried every collar out there to stop him from dragging me down the street. With your simple method of turning him around and in the direction of home he automatically stopped. Of course we went through this a few times but it was the really first enjoyable walk. Thx!

BEST! BEST! BEST!
June 13, 2021

The K9 Institute is... yes, you guessed it - THE BEST!
I have a Schnoodle who is mostly Schnauzer - a real barker. I've started the training and am confident that I can get a calm dog. He loses it when anyone comes over or just rings the doorbell.
I know the calm is coming because of the professionalism of the trainers and the step-by-step course!

Very informative intro
June 13, 2021

I very much enjoyed the intro to the K9 Dog Institute and I'm looking forward to the lessons which I will soon be a part of. I love the fact that they have a guarantee although I'm confident and hopeful that we will get so much from the classes that there will be no need to activate it.

Excellent workshop

This free workshop is definitely worth watching whether you are a novice or an experienced dog owner. The explanations are clear and backed up by video footage.

Personable and friendly
June 12, 2021

We watched the online workshop and liked what we saw and are eager to try the techniques out with our new puppy. My son would like to have him qualify as an emotional support dog and this seems like the best course for us all to take. They have emailed me with info each day since we watched and have made us feel like they are willing and ready to help us along the way.

Impressive curriculum
July 11, 2021

We thought the workshop showed impressive results in the several examples they described. The results were almost too good to be true. We are still considering purchasing the full class. We would be ecstatic if our dog responded anything close to what we saw in the workshop!

I have been training my dogs to stay by watching your video. I am trying to train my husband to not pick up his furbaby when she barks. He can love on her once she stops. Lol. Love your tips!

Service dog training
June 11, 2021

I have been reviewing the emails for about 2 weeks from K9
Blue is a 2 year old Havanese and is a certified service dog
He and I spent 6 month training 5-6 days a week 1 hr in class and 1 hr at home each day
His training is ongoing (as it is with all service dogs)
The suggestions in the K9 emails are very good and have served as a reinforcement to Blue's training
They have also provided additional training methods to improve Blue's behavior and my training techniques

Review of Masterclass Advertising
July 11, 2021

I am sorry to tell you, watching it was a complete waste of my time. I suppose, I could have known - that is what free webinars are usually all about. I am a trainer myself, and I do happen to train service dogs - that's what got me interested in the offer - I wanted to see whether it was something worth watching (if other people post good, interesting webinars, I do recommend them).
Well, your webinar is a big advertising campaign, no valuable training tips - and quite frankly not suitable for my clients, I teach with more modern methods. Thus, a big disappointment.

Hello Anja - it's clear from the review that you are a competitor. Isn't it bad form to post negative online reviews regarding competitors in this manner?

In addition, what you have claimed (that our free workshop is a "big advertising campaign") is false. The hundreds of positive reviews that we have received so far on Sitejabber from dog owners who have solved some of their dogs' behavioral problems (excessive barking, pulling on leash, jumping, etc.) using the free workshop is proof of this.

Last, as Sitejabber noted, we reached out to you regarding your review, but haven't yet received any response from you.
