Precision K9 Training Learn more about Precision K9 Training at https://precisionk9training.com/link-tree/ Precision K9 Training will teach you how to be a fair and effective leader.

Precision K9 Training is dedicated to helping you improve the ultimate relationship with your dog. Successful dog training isn’t about control, it’s about mutual trust & respect. Learning to communicate with your dog in his/her own language is key in developing the trust & respect necessary in achieving a well-mannered family pet. Dogs are pack animals and you become a member of the pack as soon a

s you bring your dog home. Because every pack must have a leader, you must have the knowledge and skills necessary to become that leader. If you fail to become the leader, your dog will begin to push his/her limits and compete with you for pack leadership status which will result in problem behaviors. A true alpha is NOT dominant or forceful, but fair, balanced & humane – your relationship with your dog will develop into a partnership & your bond will be unbreakable. It’s all about mutual trust & respect! Trust Precision K9 Training to teach you & your dog mutual trust & respect resulting in effective communication & successful obedience. We offer a variety of training options. When you & your dog are trained using our methods, the potential for behavioral problem development is virtually eliminated! Remember, the education you provide now is the foundation for your dog’s behavior & personality for his/her lifetime! Learning and understanding your dog’s natural language and abilities is essential in achieving the ultimate relationship, a relationship for a lifetime. Service. Companionship. Loyalty.

Kana is finishing her 2nd week of day training. Her obedience is getting better and she's learning to control her impulses around many distractions, even bicycles!

Good Obedience ≠ Good Behavior
A dog having good obedience skills doesn’t necessarily mean they will make good choices when it matters.
They can know all the tricks in the book, but if there’s food on the floor and a toddler nearby, are they really going to walk into that room and leave the food alone? Probably not—unless you’ve actually taught them impulse control and built those expectations into everyday life.
One of the best things you can do for your dog is establish calm, consistent leadership inside the home.
That means having clear door manners and routines. It means working on place when people come through the door or while you’re eating dinner. It means practicing impulse control with play, toys, and food. It means teaching your dog that jumping on you, demanding attention, or demanding to be petted isn’t how they get what they want. The list goes on.
These things may seem small, but they create the foundation for a dog that can control themselves when distractions and excitement are high.
Stop thinking of your dogs as humans. They’re dogs. Understanding how dogs communicate, interact, and establish boundaries can help you better understand what your dog needs from you.
And remember: being a leader doesn't mean being aggressive, intimidating, or “dominant.”
Real leadership is calm, consistent, confident, and fair.

Grooming Is Training! 🐾✂️
Grooming should be an easy, positive, and fun experience for your dog—and it starts at home!
Taking just a few minutes each day to practice grooming skills can make a HUGE difference. Touch their paws, gently handle their ears, brush their coat, practice standing still, and reward them throughout the process. Keep sessions short, positive, and fun!
This practice doesn’t just benefit your dog—it helps your groomer, too. ❤️
I can’t tell you how many dogs are turned away from grooming appointments or require sedation because they haven’t been prepared for basic grooming handling.
Our goal is to help make grooming a stress-free experience for everyone involved. So, start practicing at home and make grooming something your dog can feel confident and comfortable with!
A little practice every day goes a long way. 🐶💕

Teaching a down command doesn't create a calm dog. It creates a dog that knows how to lie down on cue. Those are not the same thing. Food for thought 💭.

Work on your marker words especially the yes marker versus telling your dog good. If you have questions please reach out to your trainers or maybe set up a one-on-one session. This word should be very valuable to help build positive associations to things and engagement through many distractions.

Happy 2nd Birthday Louie! 🎉 Thank you for bringing in goodie bags for all of the enrichment dogs.
