That's it! After 7 weeks, Thor is back home with his family.

We were able to make a lot of progress with him, but this is still just the beginning.

We are switching gears to focus on Thor's owners' education.

After several follow-up lessons, he will be a fully capable and confident handler to give Thor the leadership he needs.

Kova just graduated from our Puppy Program with honors! 🎓🐾

Our Puppy Program offers the most value to clients compared to any other training option.

By being proactive and getting ahead of the curve, we help prevent issues like reactivity, separation anxiety, and aggression potentially saving you a lot of money 💸 and frustration down the road.

At the same time, we’re planting seeds 🌱 in your puppy’s developing brain 🧠 and building a communication system that becomes the foundation for everything you’ll do together.

The skills your puppy learns with us last a lifetime and allow them to enjoy far more freedom than the average dog.

We also put a huge emphasis on owner education, equipping you with the knowledge and tools to keep progressing your dog’s training long after the program ends.

👉 For the absolute best results, reach out before you even get your puppy. We can connect you with reputable breeders to set you up for success right from the start

I posted a video a couple weeks back about Thor.

He's been here about 6 weeks now and is making big strides.

I am going to teach him a few behaviors that will make life alot easier for his owner and others as well. I'm also going to teach him that wearing a muzzle is a rewarding experience as well as grooming and nail trims.

Motivation is the most important factor in rehabilitating Thor. If we can get him interested in play or food then it would be much more difficult to help him.

Don't get it twisted though, even though Thor looks like he's made huge improvements, his owner can't get complacent and let his guard down. He will always have to manage situations for the rest of Thor's life.

I'll be posting a follow up after Thor's turnover lesson once he goes back home.

Georgie completed his program and we ran through a gameplan with his owner during the turnover lesson to make sure his success will last for years to come. We will follow up with George's family in a couple weeks to continue their education on how to maintain and progress his training. Keep up the outstanding work 🙌

Aggression case 🐕

Thor is a special case. It's not every day that we get 5+ years old dogs in for training that their owner is even concerned about getting bit by.

When it comes to aggression, we are extremely selective on what dogs we take in for training. We have to be selective because it will take years of work (by the owners) to keep him on the right track even after training. We make expectations very clear from the beginning that even though he's going through a board & train program, that it is just the beginning, the real work starts when the dog goes home and not everyone can accept that.

Training is not magic. Even with training, you can never trust that the dog won't bite again. It takes the dogs' lifetime of good communication, clear boundaries, and structure to keep them on the right track. Even with all of that, you have to manage every situation, including not leaving them alone with children and maybe even not meeting strangers.

Aggression comes in many forms. In Thors case, it was a learned behavior over the course of years. Not having clear structure and communication and letting the dog think he can "win" those little power struggles can definitely be a contributing factor.

Follow along to see Thor's progress for the next 7-8 weeks.

Osiris excelled in his board & train program. We will follow in with multiple lessons as he gets older to make sure his owners are equipped with the knowledge they need to succeed. Board & trains only work if everyone does their part.

Expert Trainers Who Get Results

Corey started his training path as a hobby, training sport dogs such as belgian malinois and the german shepherd breed in sports such as Schutzhund (IGP) and French Ring while at the same time working as a pipe welder making pretty decent money. He didn’t want to keep waking up every morning going to a job that he wasn’t completely happy doing so he decided to make the switch from pipe welder earning a consistent income, to diving in head first with no backup plan to open a business training pet and working dogs. Since then he has opened a training business, trained multiple dogs between board & trains and lessons. Imported, trained and sold numerous dogs to go on to work in fields such as explosives detection for the government, anti-poaching interdiction in Africa, and personal protection work. He has worked as a trainer imprinting dogs from Europe for explosives detection for a large private company and handled a bomb dog, doing security work for a foreign embassy. If you need help because your dog won’t come when called and you want to be able to go hiking off leash or your dog pulls you down the street and lunges at other dogs, don’t hesitate to contact “The Modern K9”. Corey will help and not only will he help, he will show you how to have a better more fulfilling relationship with your dog.
