FirstBarkWe did intermediate puppy class and it was great! Our dog was trained in basic skills and we were given clear instructions on how to practice at home. Swimming was an excellent bonus that not many places offer. The price was reasonable. The trainers were always willing to provide additional instruction based on your dog’s particular behaviors. The playtime in the beginning was a really great part.

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Do they train a dog to stop barking at the neighbors in their own yard, the mailperson, when a neighbor pulls into their own driveway, etc.?
In my experience and what I've observed, after your obedience class, the trainer stays after to work specifically with individual needs and gives you home work to attempt at home. But all trainers are different, but with the 3 classes I took, they all worked with people about this issue and others. (I however do not have this issue with my dog so I can't speak personally) You should call them, they are great people and will answer all your questions!!!!

How are the prices
Community answer · Anthony Lee · 2018-09-21
They do not, however they do offer basic and advanced obedeiance training which is the key element to protection training. Also keep in mind not all dogs are able to be trained to be protection dogs. It takes a special mental makeup for it to be done safely

Always professional and friendly.
My Goldendoodle spent 21 days for puppy training. He had separation anxiety, wouldn’t walk on a leash and wouldn’t come when I called him. What a difference after his stay at AlphaK9.

So thankful for Maddie and the rest of the training staff at Alpha K9 for their training of our new rescue dog Maverick. We opted for the 3 week board and train for him and Maddie worked with us to provide regular updates on his progress and to troubleshoot some roadblocks she encountered because of his strong fear of other dogs (shoutout to hot dogs for the assist!). Maddie spent over an hour with us when we picked Maverick up to make sure we both felt confident in using the commands with him that he had learned. We’ve been attending weekly classes with Maddie since Maverick has been home and she’s been great with providing quick tips and tricks for improving both his confidence and ours. Thank you so much Maddie for quickly identifying the help that Maverick so desperately needed!

As a professional myself I spent a lot of time researching and asking for recommendations for a board and train program for our rambunctious GSP. Maddie and Abby were absolutely amazing. The constant updates they provided to make sure that, even though we were without our sweet puppy, it felt like we were there with him the whole time!! Our dog came back a completely different dog! So well behaved. Maddie and Abby spent time with us teaching us how to continue things beyond the time there. I can't say enough great things about how great they are. Not only do they have a customer for life, I will sing their praises to anyone who asks! Thanks again all!!
