Method

Family K9 Services believes in balanced training, using both negative and positive consequences for a calm, balanced dog, with tools, equipment, treats and physical rewards to encourage proper behavior. The goal goes beyond mastering cues to shifting a dog's mindset to calm, controlled and collected, and giving owners the confidence to take their dogs anywhere. Dogs of every size are welcome, from a five pound Chihuahua to a 100+ pound Cane Corso.
