Optimistic
May 24, 2021

Enjoyed the webinar, looking forward to learning the steps I need to follow so that I can train my dog to be as obedient as a service dog. (I believe this will be more about training me so that I can understand and work with my dog effectively.

Still deciding
May 24, 2021

I'm yet to commit to the course. I do find the info presented informative and it ticks the boxes I need. I would like to see a few negative reviews for balance (unless of course there genuinely aren't any). Overall I'm leaning toward giving it a try.

May 22, 2021

The tips provided in the free training video series has been phenominal! My dog is a golden retriever/great pyrenees mix and likes to bark at everything! The tips given in the video series have made a big difference in her behavior and she is a happier dog. So glad I found this program.

As a former dog owner & now a puppy owner I find the training tips priceless. It offers the recommendations for all the things I did wrong before & how not to. Fall back into bad habits of training.

Great experience
May 21, 2021

We just purchased the training workshop from the K9 institute because we were extremely impressed with free tips we received. We know the training will be a treasure trove for training Skylos. We already started the leash training and it so helpful.
We were impressed with customer care, responding to our questions in a pleasant and timely fashion.
We look forward to interacting with the training institute.

Easy to use

Gave me information that I hadn't thought of. I was glad to see that training was more praise oriented and not negative when dealing with my puppy.

Walking Megan
May 19, 2021

Megan is a three year old Shipoo who loves to walk. Twice a day she barks at me and actually jumps and pushes me with her front feet. It's time for a walk. But for 3 years, Megan has pulled! Wearing a collar she chokes, wearing a harness she's ready to pull a wagon. I'm 77 and am finding it increasingly difficult to enjoy a walk. Last week I came across a video on Facebook. In three days... actually during the first day walk, Megan has learned not to pull! No treats... we walk, she pulls, I stop and walk in the opposite direction. We turn around, continue the way we are going. This happened about 5 times. She got it! A true story... and many, many thanks,

Outstanding
May 19, 2021

It's been a few weeks since I purchased the masterclass. Very happy with it so far. My yorkie used to pull on his leash everytime I used to take him out for a walk. That has now stopped completely, and he maintains constant eye contact with me during our walks. He has also become a lot more calm inside the house instead of being excitable all the time, as he used to be.

I purchased the Total Transformation Masterclass from K9 Training Institute and am super-impressed.

Walking with Carlo (our German Shepherd puppy) has become so much more enjoyable now! Instead of constantly pulling on his leash like he used to, he now always walks at our side.

And instead of trying to run away everytime we open the front door (and almost getting run over by a car once because of this), he now sits patiently in front of the door even without a leash on until I give him permission to go out.

He has become so well-trained and seems to almost behave like a service dog now!
