I've been in contact with the STSK9 team about the MVP program and training vest. I must say they are the best in answering by questions promptly and is very knowledgeable about my concerns in choices. It's refreshing.

I joined the MVP program last year and I am thrilled. The dynamic between me and my 2-year-old Malinois has changed fundamentally. Not only do we have fun with the special training methods, we learn an incredible amount with every video from Nino. Watching the process of how we started and where we are now is breathtaking. I would like to thank Nino's entire team for this opportunity and can recommend the full course to anyone. At the beginning I wasn't quite sure where and how to start and I was a bit lost for guidance, but here too I received direct help from Nino. I also got to know people from all over the world who are doing the same thing and sharing ideas with them has made me even more successful. This community is simply amazing. Coaching calls, support and analysis help you to constantly improve. I love the whole program. Also works with unmotivated rhodesian ridgebacks

As someone who works with dogs, this is an incredible course which shines a different light on dog training, focusing on energy, relationship, communication and movement. The information is extremely clear for beginners, as well as people with experience. As well as having a great source of information from the platform, you also have the support system in place from the StsK9 students via the closed group, and Nino himself. There are a lot of extra topics you can dive into, and a lot of space for growth. I've hooked up numerous people onto this course and everyone is extremely happy and has seen great results in both their dogs, and their relationship. Thanks Nino!

As a recent customer of STSK9’s Positive Training course for pups, I’m left with mixed feelings. Here’s my honest take on this $300+ investment. Pros: 1. Innovative Training Approach: The focus on having dogs pay attention to the “source of reward” is intriguing. It was refreshing to see my dogs learn tricks by focusing on treats or toys in my hand rather than just making eye contact with me. This technique made training more engaging and enjoyable for both me and my dogs. 2. Convenience of Online Learning: The availability of an online format is a big plus. It’s great to have access to training from diverse trainers worldwide without the need to travel. Cons: 1. Customer Engagement Post-Purchase: Initially, I was thrilled by Nino’s direct response and engagement. However, after purchasing the course, his communication ceased. Despite tagging STSK9 in social media posts showcasing progress, there was no acknowledgment or engagement from their side, which was disappointing. 2. Interactions with Co-Trainer: The dynamic between Nino and Manuela, the Italian dog trainer, is concerning. The course videos often show Nino interrupting or even seemingly mocking Manuela’s methods. This lack of respect and preparedness in their presentations was off-putting. 3. Production Quality: For the price, the video and sound quality are subpar. Several videos end abruptly, and poor sound editing requires straining to hear the trainers. This detracts significantly from the learning experience. Conclusion: While the training methods are effective and the concept of online learning is beneficial, the lack of post-purchase engagement and poor video production significantly dampen the overall experience. Additionally, the unprofessional interaction of Nino with his co-trainer Manuela suggests a need for more respect and better planning. My mixed feelings reflect these highs and lows.

Just started three months ago with the MVP program and wowww there's so much information! I've been digging into the theory and already learned so much. The coaching calls are also very helpful and the community is really supportive. Would recommend 10/10. Learned so much about the connection between me and my dog. It's improving our confidence. Mine, my dog's and our confidence as a team. Which was my main reason to start the MVP program. Three months in and already getting the benefits. I can't wait 'till we graduate!
