Professional dog training for pet, sport, show, and working dogs. Eastern Washington.

We had a new addition this weekend — this handsome nine-month-old puppy.

Unfortunately, things became difficult at home. His owner became ill and could no longer manage an active puppy, so we were asked to step in and help.

He’s now staying with a new family on a trial basis. We’re keeping in touch and hoping everything works out for them. 🤞🙏

Two puppies, two beds, one important skill: learning to settle. 🐾

Puppy training isn’t only about movement and excitement. Learning to stay on a designated spot while life happens around them is just as valuable.

I build this skill gradually:
• Start with short, achievable moments.
• Reward calm behavior.
• Add duration, distance, and distractions one at a time.
• Give a clear release cue.

The goal is a puppy who can enjoy the action—and relax when it’s time to take a break.

Start small. Build good habits. Make everyday life easier.

🛁🐾 Who says Board & Train is all about training?

At GK9 Dog Training, we believe that taking care of our four-legged guests goes beyond obedience lessons.

Between training sessions, structured routines, and everyday activities, there's room for a little pampering, too!

Because sometimes a spa day is exactly what's on the schedule. 💙

Training is important, but so is making sure every dog in our care feels comfortable and well looked after.

Meet Ben & Gus — our newest Board & Train students! 🐾

Ben and Gus have officially started their training with GK9 Training.

During their stay, we’ll be focusing on creating a solid training foundation, improving communication and engagement, developing better everyday manners, and helping each puppy become more confident and responsive.

Even though they may look similar at first glance, Ben and Gus are two different dogs with their own personalities and learning styles. Their training will be adjusted to what each individual dog needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all formula.

We’ll be sharing parts of their training process and progress throughout the program.

Welcome, Ben & Gus! 💙

We did CGC with this little guy last Saturday. And hope, he will become great fit for someone.

It is hard to see such posts... I was there when they came the first time. I was working alot with Mia on her reactivity, so they could be accepted to play groups. Cutting their nails. I remember Rocket teaching Hazel maners. We had some private sessions with owners also. Hard to believe they are both gone so early...
