K9 Trainology is psyched to announce the start of our blog! Since the beginning, K9 has managed to grow ourselves beyond where we started with our few original private dog training clients.
We at K9 give credit to this growth and success to our implementation of consistent obedience guidance for all our client’s and their pups along the way. Our team believes in following the principles of structure, leadership, and communication.
After losing our dog two years ago, we adopted our first shelter pup, Lucy the pit bull. Not even looking for a new furry friend yet, we visited a local shelter in our home of Louisville, KY shortly after and fell in love.
Here we are nearly two years later and Lucy is now the model for what a trained dog should be and we live and breathe dog training. While Lucy was and is the biggest sweetheart you’ll ever meet, like many dogs, there was more than what met the eye.
Being outdoor lovers, we quickly took Lucy to the park soon after adopting her. It was our first trip to the park when we came to the hard realization that our sweet pup had major aggression issues. We were startled to watch our adorable snuggle bug transform into such an intimidating predator towards other dogs and animals.
We quickly realized our dog training level needed to be upgraded if we wanted to keep our wonderful new pup and give her the life she deserves.
Ultimately, we believe that dog training relies on the foundation of building trust and confidence connecting dog and owner.
