Well, looky looky... MLK9 did something special. 🐾🔥

Meet Vic.

This little guy just made the trip all the way from Pennsylvania, and while this happened much sooner than I expected, sometimes that's exactly how life works. Sometimes God has a different timeline than the one we create for ourselves.

And honestly... I couldn't be happier.

Vic is going to be my new PSA competition dog, and I'm beyond excited for the journey ahead. The learning, the training, the adventures, the setbacks, the victories—and eventually stepping onto the trial field for the first time as a competitor.

We've got a long road ahead of us. After all, this little monster is only 8 weeks old. Right now he's full of p**s and vinegar, endless energy, goofy antics, and a personality that's impossible not to love. He's social, confident, curious, and already showing me glimpses of the dog he may one day become.

But for now?

He's just a puppy.

A puppy learning how to navigate the world, build relationships, play hard, and enjoy the process.

As many of you know, MLK9 has always been about the journey—about communication, relationship, reliability, and the freedom that comes from building those things together. Vic gets to grow up within that philosophy from day one, and in many ways, he'll become the new face of what we're building here at MLK9.

I truly can't wait to see what his future holds.

Welcome to the family, Vic.

The adventure starts now. 🖤💛🐾

If you want to see your dog change, you must be willing to change first.

You have to put in the work.
You have to learn how to communicate.

At MLK9, we believe that communication builds clarity, clarity builds reliability, and reliability builds freedom.

Your dog isn't born understanding how to live successfully in our world. It is our responsibility to teach them. It is our responsibility to guide them, advocate for them, and help them succeed.

You have to become the handler your dog deserves.

You must learn to communicate with purpose. You must create clarity through consistency. You must build reliability through training, accountability, and partnership.

Because when reliability exists, freedom follows.

Give your dog the life it deserves.
Learn to communicate.
Learn to lead.
Learn to become the partner your dog needs you to be.

The relationship you want with your dog isn't something you stumble upon.
It's something you build.

Nobody cares. Train harder.

It would be easy to watch this video and think we're teaching a puppy to sit, down, or heel.

But that's not what this session is really about.

This is our very first session with a young German Shepherd puppy, and our focus is much bigger than obedience.

We're building a communication system.

We're teaching the puppy that the word "YES" has meaning. We're creating engagement. Building motivation. Developing value in working with a person. The simple behaviors you see are just opportunities to create clarity and understanding.

Because clarity creates confidence.

Confidence creates reliability.

And reliability creates freedom.

The goal has never been to simply create a dog that obeys commands.

The goal is to create a dog that understands, chooses to engage, and can confidently navigate the world alongside their person.

Every great dog starts with a conversation.

And this is where that conversation begins. 🐾

Something big is coming.

Over the last few months, I've spent a lot of time talking about the future.

The future of NWB Dogs.

The future of MLK9.

The future of how I believe dogs should be trained, developed, and lived with.

I've talked about adventure.

I've talked about communication.

I've talked about reliability.

I've talked about freedom.

Now it's time to start showing it.

Over the next several months, you'll get a front-row seat as we build something from the ground up.

The successes.

The failures.

The lessons.

The mistakes.

The victories.

No shortcuts.

No magic.

Just a real dog, a real process, and a real look at what it takes to build the kind of dog that can truly do anything and go anywhere.

If you've ever wondered what goes into creating an adventure dog, stay tuned.

This is only the beginning.

🐾 MLK9 3-Day School | July 24-26 🐾

Obedience creates reliability. Reliability creates freedom.

That's what this school is about.

Not just teaching your dog to sit, down, heel, or come when called.

We're going to show you how to build a dog that understands cooperation, engagement, and real-world reliability.

A dog that chooses to work with you.

A dog that can handle distractions, pressure, and new environments without falling apart.

A dog you can actually live life with.

✅ Building engagement and ignition
✅ Understanding motivation and play
✅ Clear communication through touch and movement
✅ Functional obedience and cooperation
✅ Real-world leash handling skills
✅ Relationship building and trust
✅ Creating reliability that leads to freedom

This is not a competition obedience seminar.

This is about building a dog that can go anywhere, do anything, and be a true partner in your life.

Obedience Creates Reliability. Reliability Creates Freedom.

One of the biggest misconceptions in dog training is that obedience is the destination.

It's not.

Obedience matters.

We teach it every day.

A reliable recall is obedience.

A loose leash walk is obedience.

Being still when asked is obedience.

Following guidance through distractions is obedience.

But obedience alone isn't the goal.

The goal is what obedience creates.

Reliability.

And reliability creates freedom.

Children earn freedom through responsibility.

Dogs earn freedom through reliability.

The more reliable a dog becomes, the more freedom they can safely enjoy.

Freedom isn't the absence of rules.

Freedom isn't letting dogs do whatever they want.

Freedom is the ability to live at liberty while making good choices.

It's the dog that comes when called.

It's the dog that can ignore distractions.

It's the dog that chooses to stay connected to its owner even when the world is pulling it in other directions.

It's the dog that can confidently join you on hikes, camping trips, road trips, paddleboarding adventures, and everyday life.

At MLK9, we don't train obedience for obedience's sake.

We use obedience to build communication.

We use communication to build reliability.

And reliability is what ultimately creates freedom.

This is the future we're building.

Not just better-trained dogs.

Better relationships.

Greater trust.

More adventure.

More freedom.

A Bitter Sweet Farewell to Koda! 🐾
​We play a lot, but I don’t actually get to train with this guy very often. Since Koda is heading off to his new home tomorrow, I wanted to step out, play around, and just have some fun with him one last time.

​As you can see in the video, there’s a little bit of confusion here and there—but overall, he was having an absolute blast and totally rocked it!

​We were throwing a bit of everything into the mix:

​Working on retrieves with some "downs" mixed in

​Midway "outs" on the return
​Some heel work and call-offs

​...and overall, just having fun!

​For not putting a ton of consistent training hours into him, he has worked so hard and proven just how much a dog can do in a very short amount of time. If I wanted to push it further, sure, there is plenty we could clean up—but that’s not what today was about.

​Tomorrow, Koda goes to live out his best life on a ranch as a full-time farm dog, and I couldn't be happier for him. We're just out here enjoying the moment.

​Enjoy the video! 👇
