"Congratulations! you are one step closer to having an awesome dog that you can do more things with and incorporate into your life. Dog training can, and should, be a fun experience that enhances your relationship with you and your dog. Although there are many different temperaments and personalities amongst dogs, most dogs are fairly easy to train; you just needs the insight that a knowledgeable and experienced dog trainer can give you. To 'Boot Camp' or not to 'Boot Camp'? That might just be your question. The dog boot camp training program is a very popular program, for obvious reasons. Many people do not have the time, energy, patience, or strength to handle their wild and hairy beast. In most cases, the dog boot camp training program is a perfect fit, just make sure you are ready and willing to reinforce what you and your dog are being taught. Our success rate is through the roof! Call today so we can chat about the program and the process." -Jeremy Talamantes

​

-The dog boot camp program can be stressful on dogs. Typically, the more spoiled and out of control your dog is, he's going to have a tough time settling in and coping with the new rules and boundaries. We only take a few dogs in at a time, so that we can really spend a lot of time with each dog, get the training done, and get each dog home as soon as possible. 

​

-Please keep in mind that one of the most important parts of our training programs is to gain reliability under distractions. Most dogs know how to sit, lay down, and come when called, but few will do it if they are distracted. Therefore, our goal is to gain the reliability that most responsible dog owners want.

-You must follow through with the training and reinforce what we have taught in order to be successful!

Commands Covered:

Sit- This is a basic command used for many purposes, including walking, feeding, greeting, etc.

Down- This command can also be used on walks, feeding, greeting, etc. It is typically used when you want your dog to be in a controlled position for a longer time period. 

Place- This command is fantastic and is used a lot for younger dogs and for dogs with minor aggression issues. This command is a great way to have your dog with you more often and be able to manage your dog much better.

Heel- This command is great for when you want to walk your dog and want to have him by your side and under control.

Recall- Every dog owner should be able to say their dog will come to them whenever they call their dog! As responsible dog owners, we should all have this command mastered.

Discipline- It is very important that dogs are clear on what is allowed and what is not allowed.

​

NOTE: We do use corrective collars, including choker chains, prong collars, and ecollars. If you are completely against the use of corrective collars, we are probably not the right trainer for you. If you have questions about these collars and their use, feel free to ask. Thanks!

ECOLLAR NOTE: Ecollars are very effective and humane when used correctly. Ecollars can give a dog the ability to experience a sense of freedom. What we mean by that is a dog that is not trained on an ecollar will most likely have to live his life on a 6' leash, at least outside of his yard. We find it sad that a dog can never walk freely, run freely, or get to make the choice of complying or not, since he is dragged around or choked around by a leash and collar. Please do not try and use an ecollar on your dog without professional help!

Please send your dog as young as possible and as early as possible. We only take dogs in that are six months to five years old. Any dog younger than six months needs to be at home bonding and going through potty training. Any dog that is over five years old, may not be able to deal with the pressure and stress of a dog boot camp training program. 

​

If you dog is younger than six months or older than five years, feel free to give us a call so we can discuss your situation and see what options you might have. Most dogs that have been boarded throughout their lives, can handle the pressure and stress of a dog boot camp. Therefore, it is best for us to talk first in order to see if your dog is a good candidate for our dog boot camp training program. 

Most importantly, WE NEVER OVER-CROWD! The way K-9 Behavior Services is set up is very unique. We do not have to pull in 20 to 30 dogs at one location to make money. As a matter of fact, we only pull in a few dogs at a time. We spend a lot of time with each dog, and we are very successful at meeting, and often times exceeding, our client's expectations.

​

Our dog boot camp program is only two weeks and very unique. We only take in a few dogs at a time and our location is fully climate controlled. For liability reasons, we do not mix dogs together, but trust me, they get a lot of stimulation through training, walks, and human interaction. We do not use outdoor kennels so your dog is not baking in the heat, nor freezing in the cold and rain.
