Enlightened K9 Training Enlightened K9 is southeast Wisconsin's premier dog training establishment. We are often the last stop for the most severe cases.

Enlightened K9 is often the last stop for dogs and their owners before more extreme measures are taken. We see the most severe of cases and welcome all clients with open arms. Our number one mission is to educate the public that it is never too late for any dog, regardless of breed and past history.

How do we control a reactive and aggressive boston terrier who has no problem with conflict? Patience. Calm energy. It's quite common for some dogs to have behaviors that require more work than just correcting the behavior out of them. I would argue it's more common than not. Almost never can we correct aggression out of a dog.

We can however lead the dog. Set the dog up for success until we build a better relationship with the dog and we can communicate more clearly. I don't have any sort of relationship with Mahoney at this point so I only have him around the easiest dogs that I have.

Pretty unique insight into how we address when two more dominant male dogs get into a little disagreement. Sometimes doing nothing is best like what happened here. Not every circumstance requires intervention from a human.

Here's the full video from my last post. Gotta figure out how to do this again 🤪

I'm back! Going to start posting two or three times a week again. It's been a long time but it's going to feel good connecting with you all again.

This is Bella, a dog available for adoption through Canine Cupids. She has a hard time meeting people but she's shown a great amount of progress in just the first few days being here.

Sox is here for a few weeks for some.pnvious reasons. Shes a young girl who doesnt quite know how to control her excitement. She did not have much success in her prior introductions to dogs in one of her previous rosters, so we are starting from scratch with this one. She's been here for about a week now and has already made some big strides.

Some of you may remember Clara from last summer. She did 3 weeks with us to work on her social skills with dogs and people. As you can see she has been doing great while her foster family is on vacation.

Unfortunately Clara needs a new foster home, preferably with dogs already, that can get her on a walk every day and socialize her with their dogs. Shes great with all medium to large dogs with proper introduction. She currently lives with older kids. Shes definitely someone's dream dog, we just need to find that someone.

If you are interested in adopting or fostering Clara long term, contact me or Tara with Paws Up Pet Rescue. I'm sure she will be commenting on this post 😊

Charlie is here to hang out for a week while her parents are out of town. Clients like Charlie's parents take full advantage of our client exclusive benefits.

Charlie would not do well in a standard run of the mill daycare as she can be bossy around other dogs and has a bite history with people. We are able to give Charlie's parents the peace if mind they deserve in knowing their girl is safe and she will not be harming anyone during her stay.

This is my man Apollo. He's here for a few weeks to learn some manners and off leash ecollar conditioning. Hes a super cool meat head of a dude he just needs to understand boundaries and limitations.

Gigi is here for a few weeks for a quick reality check. She's got quite the bite history and is not the most pleasant dog when greeting new guests in the home.

Here's a sneak peek into how I take dogs out of the kennel with a bite history whom I have no relationship with.

Hint: trust your GUT!

How can you tell if your dog trusts you and respects you? Here is common test you can use to see where you are at with your dog.

Goldie came to us guarding her food and toys. Resource guarding, in most cases, is simply a symptom of lack of respect for authority or lack if trust in general. With Goldie it was both.

She had no reason to respect humans since no one ever guided her in a way she understood. Because of this lack of leadership she became an extremely anxious dog who would growl and nip when simply being touched in a way she did not approve of. That is where the lack of trust comes in.

Through consistent leadership and a lot of relationship building exercises, she learned that A. She has no reason to guard food and B. She CANT guard food. Now we get to have a dog who respects boundaries by waiting patiently for her food, and does not growl while shes eating since she trusts that we will not annoy her.

Just checking in to remind everyone that we are still active and busier than ever! With that said, Enlightened K9 has some BIG news coming to you all this spring. There will be a restructuring of all of our training programs to better suit your needs. We have been working very hard to meet the demands of our awesome clients, and let's just say that this May, that will be getting a whole lot easier! Stay tuned for a big announcement coming in the next few weeks!

Any guesses as to what that announcement could possibly be!? (A few of you know already, no cheating please 😉)

What's better than working with a Rottie you ask? Well, working with two of course. Grover is the new guy on the left you will all be seeing plenty of. Cash is a client from about a year ago hanging out for the weekend while his parents take a trip out of town.
