Everything I have heard so far makes perfect logical sense. The training is centered around how dogs perceive their environment not how we perceive it. My puppy is a ‘good’ dog but definitely only f... See more

A Practical Approach

They offer a smart, practical approach to dog training. Think about how much you spend on your dog especially with inflation being what it is. Knowing that your and your dogs bond will become even stronger, it’s ultimately money well spent…

I'm a first time dog owner so I was looking for help in training my new best friend Jax. K9 dog training not only help with that but it was more in depth then that they help me to understand how my jaxs brain worked so I could better understand how to communicate better with him , it wasnt just about getting my Jax to do what I wanted but more importantly to be able to communicate positively with him which means more to me

Stop the jumping when I come home!

I always thought you had to issue commands verbally; however, watching the instructions from K9 TI indicated that body language was a more effective method of teaching a dog that verbal language, e.g wanting a dog to stop jumbing when greeting you. You are to come in, turn away when they jump, and turn back toward them when they calm. It works! Thank you as I reinforce it!

I'm really excited to be apart of this learning adventure. I've only attended one of the workshops so far and I'm the proud parent of a Cane Corso, the things I learned in the work shop have been so helpful. Justice is now responding to my commands I'm relieved and life with my puppy is so much happier now. I can't wait to learn more and I can't thank you guys enough for helping and teaching me the right things to do and not do. You have given me great hopes. Thanks again. Can't wait for the next one.

Pet Training Workshop

The workshop was very informative and clear to understand. I. Would recommend this to any dog owner. Everything made so much more sense as far as training your pet. Hope you enjoy as much as I am enjoying the training workshop!

Don't believe their money back guarantee

I tried their Masterclass for $297 but it wasn't helping with the issue I was having with my dog. I requested a refund and they said they would do that, but then I was charged ANOTHER $297 and then immediately refunded $297. So their refund was only covering their unauthorized charges that occurred after I requested my refund. Now I am trying to get help from the state AG office and the BBB.

4/15/24: Once K9TI told me they had refunded my payments, completely disregarding the 3 UNAUTHORIZED charges immediately preceding my "refund", they seemed to stop communicating with me. Last Friday (4/12/24) I happened to check my debit card balance and saw they (K9TI) finally corrected what I am hoping was a mistake and removed the unauthorized charges. It would have been nice if K9TI would have given me some kind of explanation/apology for the unauthorized charges or just that the charges were corrected. I changed my rating from 1 to 3 since the UNAUTHORIZED charges were removed.

Reply from K9 Training Institute

Hi Kevin - apologies about the confusion regarding this. It seems that there was a temporary technical glitch between your bank and our bank while your refund was being processed, which caused the duplicate charges. As you noted, this has now been resolved by the respective banks and you've been fully refunded. Sorry again about the confusion!

Good tips so far

Good tips so far. I would like it better if you were given an option for only certain training tips if you weren’t interested in the others

Successful Training So Far

The training has been spot on so far. We housebroke our 9-week-old puppy using a crate in two (2) weeks, while overcoming pad training by her breeder. She’s 12-weeks old now and doing really well with the Masterclass training too. I’m convinced she’s a genius. 😁
