The PKK9 Methodology

My core methodology is that all dogs require love, repetition, and socialization to reach their full potential. This helps give me and my clients a clear path to diagnosing whatever issues and challenges that their dog may face and to develop a solid plan that utilizes humane and proven philosophies/techniques from all over the board.

I do not stick to just one technique and hope it works. I find what works best for my client and their dog(s). I  stay up to date on available science that pertains to dog training and behavior and make sure to keep an open mind as each dog is unique and has its own personality.

I do not use tools like Choke/Prong/E-collars.  I prefer alternatives such as front range harnesses. For aggression cases I will require a muzzle. This is for the protection of the dog and everyone involved. Please feel free to ask for more information on this policy.

Overall, building a solid conduit for communication between my client and their pup is my biggest goal. I believe that dogs want nothing more than to be there for you as their companion. I help give you the ability to create that bond. And what you put into it is what you will get out of it. Training is just the first step, but easily one of the most important. I look forward to working with you and your pup!
