Training - The Key To Happiness With Your Dog

Training is an important part of your dog's life and is important for several reasons.


  • Training provides mental stimulation which helps to keep your dog happy, and if combined with morning exercise, your dog will be mentally and physically tired and more likely to relax during the day.


  • Training will help build a strong bond between you and your dog.


  • Start training your puppy/dog as early as possible.  It’s best to start at an early age, it's much easier to establish consistent rules from the beginning than to go back and try to retrain an undesirable habit your dog has developed.  Once a behavior has developed, training may take longer.


  • Dogs that are shy will become less fearful around other animals and people after training.


  • Training makes it possible to take your dog into public areas for socializing; which is very important for your dog’s mental health and well-being.  K9 Advantage Dog Training

Follow up session with Lea, after a Board and Train.  Willow is in the back, she is my lab.

Downtown Kingman is a great place to do follow-up training with Board & Train clients.  Training the dog is only the beginning.  Lea spent about four weeks with us, she is a very sweet girl.

Training = Calming

Training can be fun!

This is Bear, a 9 month GSD.  We are training.

Tank is a young but large German Shepherd, soon after starting his training he has made noticeable improvements.  He has calmed down enough to be able to take him to the park.

Melody and Ginger, Willow and I in Oatman, AZ.  We are training and working on socializing.

This was a fun training session, not just for the dogs but Melody and I had fun watching our dogs experience new adventures.  Here we are in Oatman, AZ.  a favorite destination for tourists.

This is Ginger.  I make it a point to take my clients to the train station when we are in Kingman.

Distractions can be a challenge, but not for Ginger.  I can't do a training session in Kingman without stopping at the train station.  Even loud, fast moving trains don't keep Ginger from enjoying her adventures with Melody.

As you can see, dog training doesn't always have to be hard work.  After the initial training, you and your dog can reap the rewards of your efforts.  In this picture we are visiting a local coffee joint, The Liquid Bistro.  Great coffee and very dog friendly.
