Questions & answers

What people have asked about this business.

How fast will I see results?

You will see your dog's first results during the Hands-On Introductory Session. But our whole process is based on teaching you an effective means of communication that works. That’s our specialty: teaching humans how to communicate with their dogs in a way that they inherently understand. That’s how our dog training program has been so successful.

Question on Google
Do you use positive reinforcement in your dog training?

Positive reinforcement, not punishment, fosters a respectful bond with dogs and encourages attention and obedience. By advocating verbal and physical praise, we tap into their desire for approval and affection and promote desired behaviors. Science supports this approach, showing it builds long-term obedience by associating good behavior with positive responses. Unlike treats, praise avoids creating dependency on external rewards, ensuring genuine obedience.

Question on Google
What sets AlphA and Omega apart from other dog and training companies?

The feature that sets AlphA and Omega apart from other dog training approaches is our emphasis on teaching humans how to effectively communicate with their dogs in a manner that aligns with the dog’s natural instincts and behaviors. Unlike traditional dog training methods that predominantly focus on instructing dogs, AlphA and Omega prioritize teaching dog owners how to connect with and understand their pets.

Karlon, and Alpha Omega Dog Training in general, was a life saver for our family. My husband and I are first time dog owners as a married couple. Both of our families grew up with dogs, but we had no clue how to train one of our own. Karlon came to our home and guided us through each training session, always being nice and fair to Diesel. We definitely struggled with reservations and misconceptions on our end, but Karlon was always patient with us and our puppy throughout the whole process. We started noticing dramatic differences in Diesel right from the get go, he is a very intelligent and fast learner. Diesel's progression throughout is nothing short of incredible. Karlon, and Alpha Omega, gave us the tools and guidance not only for Diesel, but for any additional animals we adopt in the future. We are beyond grateful to Karlon for all he did to help us train Diesel. While we understand that training and handling our dog while be a life long adventure, we have a night and day different puppy thanks to Karlon and Alpha Omega Dog Training! PS... We recommend Karlon to all of our family and friends going through similar struggles!

Thank you so much for the 5 star review Kaelyn! We’re so glad you joined the pack and that we were able to help you lead your way to a happy life with your dog! Training the dog is the lesser challenge of the two. We specialize in training the HUMAN on how to get the same results out of the dog that we get. Dog training for humans! You guys are pack members for life if you ever need anything always feel free to reach out to us.

I would highly recommend Karlon Simmons at Alpha and Omega, he trained my service dog. He still contacts me to check on us to make sure she is doing ok. He really cares about his job and it shows, he is a great trainer. I can not thank him enough for everything he has done.

Business response

I can’t recommend Karlon of Alpha and Omega enough. After just 5 appointments, our year old GSP is walking completely off leash, even on the busy sidewalks around our apartment. When we started, going on walks was an impossible task. She would pull, bark at children and strangers, and bolt off as soon as she was given the chance. Now we can take her on more walks and can both enjoy it! Working with Karlon was worth every penny.

Business response

Paige you and Jack rocked and rolled throughout the whole process of the training, you guys had a goal in mind and accomplished it. I'm glad you guys stuck through with me even when I went on vacation and when I got back we got right back to it! And when I told you we were going to go off-leash just 3 sessions in you looked at me like I was a mad man but I knew you guys were ready for it and you trusted me, You guys are pack members for life and if you ever need anything always feel free to give us a call.

Karlon was amazing to work with. We have a dog with behavioral issues. Karlon taught us how to control and correct our dog through leash training. He was knowledgeable and patient with us through the process. He made himself available and accessible when we needed advice or guidance. We appreciate everything he has done for us and our dog!

Business response

Kenneth you and Rena did awesome. I told you guys training the dog was the easy part but training the human is what we specialized in. I can't give you guys enough credit especially Rena holding down the fort in the beginning while you were out of town, then Kenneth coming into town and jumping on ship handling like no other. Chief is a great dog who was just a little unsure of himself now you guys can take him anywhere you go. If you guys ever need anything don't hesitate to reach out.

Karlon is AWESOME!!! I have a pit mix with hound that I rescued and he suddenly became terrible on our walks. He would pull and bark at bikes, busses, other dogs and old ladies. It was bad, but Karlon and his knowledge were very helpful! Karlon is very knowledgeable, patient and available (which is appreciated)! Thank you for everything and if you're reading this and thinking of putting your pup in such a program this one is the TRUTH! Do it- you won't regret it!

Business response

Keysha it was such a pleasure helping you get Cash to be the dog you knew he could be. His fear of Bikes,buses, and the elderly ladies were because he was in the leadership position but when you started handling him letting him know to just hang out that all changed. We love being flexible with our scheduling the best ability is availability and we understand sometimes life happens. Thanks for trusting in me with Cash and staying patient along the way.
