Huffman K9 Obedience

A big thank you to Jensen, Ryan, and the entire Huffman K9 team for working with us and our insecure, reactive pittie Milo. We purchased a 10-class package and it was worth every penny. I appreciated the knowledge that was shared and how Jensen explained what my dog was doing and why. We had some intense, eye opening sessions where huge strides were made and also setbacks along the way but there was definitely progress made: - Milo is more attentive to us since we started hand-feeding him. - Definitely more confident in new environments (Hello, obstacle course!) - Impulse control - still very, very hard for him but there's progress. - We're slowly crawling our way out of the reactivity setback (off-leash dog encounter during a walk) but I see him improving with every positive experience. Perhaps the biggest lesson by far was self awareness and accountability. Anything from timing and clarity of commands to owning up my own emotions and how they affect my dog's reactivity. THAT is the biggest challenge - one that I'm not ashamed to admit (regaining trust is a process...). There's still so much work to be done but we're on the right track. Thanks, Huffman K9 team! See you at the group class in June. :)

We trained at Huffman K9 Obedience with our previous dog; we were so impressed with Jensen's psychology and techniques and so pleased with the results that when we adopted Roxy, our chaotic rescue puppy, we signed her up immediately for a 5-session private course. We can't praise these folks enough -- everyone in the organization is smart, serious, committed, and professional. Jensen educates owners so they can get the best from their dogs, and that can be life-changing for you and your pet. It will seem like a lot of money for those lessons -- I'm here to tell you it's worth it. You and your dog are going to serious school, setting up behaviors for humans and animals that will last for life. Highly recommended.

Adi is my German shepherd/golden retriever mix and before we started training at Huffmans, she was out of control. She tore everything in the house from beds, to carpets, and even got to the padding under the carpet. I couldn’t take her in public because she was very overstimulated and hyper reactive. I needed help. After training with Jensen and the other trainers, I have found a deeper love for my dog. She’s obedient, she’s confident so no more anxiety reactive behavior. We have gone from being a frustrated, uneducated owner and reactive pet, to a team who has gone through detection seminars, learning how to track, and most recently, Adi got her Canine Good Citizen certification. The impact they have made on our lives at home and out in public is extreme. The knowledge and tools I have taken away from our training will last me the rest of my life. Some pictures of how their training has changed us. I recommend Huffman k9 obedience for any behavioral issues or skill building whether it be for a pet or a working k9.
