Welcome!
Alpha K9 is dedicated to helping you improve the human - animal bond and create 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 own language is paramount in developing the trust & respect necessary in achieving a well-mannered family pet. If you are training with treats, you are essentially bribing your dog and teaching him how to manipulate you. This "pez dispenser" method of training does not facilitate trust or respect - in fact, it is one of the major causes of problem behaviors.
Alpha K9 will teach you how to be an effective "alpha" leader. Dogs are pack animals and you become a member of the pack as soon as you bring your dog home. Because every pack must have an alpha leader, you must have the knowledge and skills necessary to become that leader. If you fail to become alpha, your dog will begin to push his limits and compete with you for pack alpha status which will result in a plethora of problem behaviors.
Trust Alpha K9 to teach you & your dog mutual trust & respect resulting in effective communication & successful obedience. We have been improving the human - animal bond since 1981. We offer a variety of training options - private lessons, house calls, problem-solving sessions, group classes and a guaranteed two week training program. We specialize in solving problem behaviors such as fear & aggression issues. When you & your dog are trained using our methods, development of behavioral problems is virtually eliminated.
Remember, the education you provide now is the foundation for your dog's behavior & personality for his lifetime! Learning and understanding your dog's natural language and abilities is essential in achieving the ultimate human-animal bond. Vet recommended - client preferred - dog tested. A well-mannered family pet - a relationship for a lifetime.
Always balanced ~ natural ~ humane.
