Happy California clients!

Chris, her husband, rescue Mastiff Bruno and Susan Welch

"Susan is a fabulous person and what a fabulous trainer. Bruno used to be aggressive at men and dogs. I paid another trainer $500 but he was afraid of my dog. Then Susan trained him. Yesterday I took him on an hour walk and he was great. I never had any fear. I felt like I knew what to do. I was calm because I knew he was no longer going to lunge and drag me. Please feel free to use me as a reference. My life was so tense and fearful and limited before we went to Susan and now I feel so free. This really changed our lives."

While you’re on a business trip, vacation or enjoying a few quiet days at home, your dog is enjoying our happy, healthy home environment learning to...

* Come when called every time...on or off leash!
* Sit or down when asked...for as long as you want!
* Walk like a gentleman or lady on a loose leash!

* Pay attention every time you ask!

Pro K9 Academy dogs also learn what not to do...

* Not to jump on people
* Not to charge through doors
* Not to dig in the garden
* Not to bark and chew inappropriately
* Not to climb on furniture you prefer they avoid

* Not to sniff and eat off the table and counters.

* Not to be wild and uncontrollable

* Not to ignore you when you want their attention

We teach your dog all that along with anything else you want for your dog to be happy and healthy in your home. We teach your pet in our own home environment, using gentle methods for happy, reliable and quick results that last in your home. And we customize the training for your dog to meet your unique needs and goals.

After our fun and happy training camp, we'll deliver your trained dog back home and work with you on site until you're managing just fine. You'll be amazed and happy to have your trained dog home. We'll shed a tear or two as we hug your pet goodbye. But we'll be happy you can both enjoy the rest of your lives together!

And now you'll be members of the Pro K9 Academy Family! If you ever need follow up assistance, it's included. For life!

My family and I want to say thank you so much for
helping us with Daisy. She is doing very well with what she has learned. She has learned that its more beneficial to her that she cooperate.

She has just about stopped her bad chewing habit as well as the jumping. She is still exciteable around strangers but she quickly calms down and is absolutely pleasant to be with. One night I had her inside and I was getting ready to go to bed, I walked her over to the kennel and pointed to it and said "kennel." She walked right in. It has become a routine for her to come inside every night to visit for a couple hours then she sleeps in her kennel.

We knew from the day we brought her home from the pound that she had behavior issues. Getting rid of her because of it was not an option. She is as much a part of our family as our kids are and there is no amount of money that would have been too much to spend to be able to enjoy her company.

Daisy is an awesome dog, you are an awesome trainer and we cant thank youenough for helping us with her!
