Training & services

Training goals

  • Behavior consultation
    Program details

    Behavior modification is a process that is often used in dog training. It involves changing the behavior of the dog by reinforcing desired behaviors and punishing undesired ones. Behavior modification can be used to teach dogs basic obedience commands, such as sit, stay, come, and down.

  • Leash training
    Program details

    Leash manners are an important part of dog training. They help to keep your dog safe and under control, and they can also help to prevent you from being pulled down the street by your furry friend. There are a few things to keep in mind when teaching your dog leash manners.

  • Obedience training
    Program details

    Through our personalized training program, you will gain a confident, obedient, and well-mannered dog. Your dog will simply learn to listen to your first command.

    Proper obedience training doesn’t mean changing the dog’s personality, energy, or drive. It does mean getting control of the dog. Dogs are both social creatures and pack animals. As such, you need to be the one who is in control, not your dog.

  • Socialization
    Program details

    Advanced Pack Socialization is a comprehensive approach to canine socialization, specifically geared towards dogs with known socialization issues. It includes everything from the initial evaluation to pre-training dogs before they can enter the social arena.

    We usually have anywhere between five and twenty dogs in each session, and that number dictates how many trainers are present. For a group of five dogs, we may have one or two trainers; for a group of twenty, we’ll have four or five trainers.

    Socialization classes are an important part of dog training. They provide a way for puppies and young dogs to learn how to interact with other dogs and people in a positive way. Socialization classes typically involve a lot of supervised playtimes.

  • Jumping up
    Program details

    Jumping on people is a common behavior in many pet dogs, but it can be unpleasant and embarrassing for both the pup and its owner. It is important that proper dog training techniques are used early on to prevent jumping before it becomes a habit.

Hands DOWN, my time at K9 Basics is the best investment my family has made in a very long time! It was the staff’s genuine LOVE and KNOWLEDGE of dogs that made my decision to enroll Cooper a no brainer!!! Cooper is my 11-month-old English Cream Retriever who was a rambunctious puppy. He was a puller, jumper, and a chaser. He attended the Day Training, and my family could NOT have been happier with the results. The staff trained us, the owners, as well; a perfect combination!! Their program(s) are well oiled machines, run by extremely experienced trainers and results are clear!! I cannot say enough wonderful things about all my interactions at K9 Basics. All my encounters with staff members have, and continues to be, amazing! They provide clear and concise instructions. Follow them and you will GET / SEE results! We put in time at home training Cooper every day. Cooper is my dog, and I am 100% responsible for his behavior. The incredible training K9 Basics has provided me, Cooper and my family are invaluable! I could not be prouder of my Cooper! THANK YOU, K9 Basics, thank you!!!!!

We brought home our Belgian Malinois Scar when he was 6 months old. He had all of the standard Maligator traits; high drive, reserved with humans, reactive with other dogs. He was the perfect high mileage trail running companion I had been looking for. I looked into K9 Basics on the recommendation of a friend but it wasn’t cheap so I went with some lesser cost alternatives. Roll forward two years and I had a dog I loved but I was worried about him around other dogs and he had started herding and nipping the friends of my 2 high school aged sons. I was afraid if I didn’t get this behavior under control, something bad would happen. I returned to K9 basics with a 2 ½ year old dog that was in need of help. On our first consultation I spoke with Arnold and he knew more about my breed than I did. I enrolled Scar in the Day Training program and hoped for the best. I am writing this review now because K9 Basics has helped me and my family train Scar into the dog we have always wanted. K9 Basics does not train your dog. They train you to train your dog. After Day Training Program I began taking Scar to weekly training sessions. He was consistently improving. Then I began taking Scar to training twice a week. Scar’s confidence was building but more than that, my confidence was building on how to communicate with my dog. Every aspect of K9 Basics training classes, from the parking lot before class to the walk through the parking lot after class, was made to help me and my dog navigate distractions that we encounter every day. We recently visited my youngest son at college in Washington D.C. Scar has been working hard and my son wanted to see his buddy. We took Scar to the national mall on a beautiful sunny day and all of his training combined to make him the perfect companion to tour all of our national monuments. We saw every distraction under the sun; electric scooters, other dogs, screaming kids, ducks, thousands of people, frisbees, footballs and practicing sports teams. His training took over and we navigated it all; on leash and off leash. I want to thank Pam, Arnold, Lisa, Brian and all of the many trainers who have helped Scar and I with our training. K9 Basics is an outstanding option if you want a dog that you can take with you literally everywhere. They are not cheap but they are worth every single penny. A friend recently asked me when Scar would be done his training. I told him never. We are always working to improve and find our next adventure.

My dog, Max, is currently still in training here, but I could not wait to post a fantastic review for them. I will update when he's completed. If anyone is in the position I was a few weeks ago, wondering if you're a terrible dog parent to be sending your dog away to strange place with strange people and concerned they'd just be absolutely miserable, I'm here to tell you I have zero regrets taking my dog here. He was a rescue with a fear of strangers and I put my trust in their hands when they told me board and train would be best for him. I just got to visit him today and he seems so happy to be there. They treat him like family and do everything possible to make him comfortable. Arnold has been so patient with me, as I call almost every day wanting to know how Max is doing. They don't try to rush you off the phone, they truly want to give you a thorough update of everything. Wouldn't trust my dogs with anyone else now. Update - Max is finished his training and I still am a raving fan of K9 basics. He unfortunately got sick, at no fault of K9 basics, and had to come home but everything was handled very professionally and they even called a couple times to check on how he was. Max was so excited to go back to training! My dog who was leash reactive to dogs and strangers just finished his first group class with zero issues besides the fact he was too happy to see the instructors again.
