Charlie completed our 4 Week Board and Train Program a year ago this month!
After a bad attack from another dog, Charlie became reactive towards other dogs.
Here is what his owner has to say about our program:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I went to about 4 different positive reinforcement only trainers and their solutions were tons of treats, don't walk him and completely avoid other people and dogs. This didn't work and his behaviour continued to escalate.
That's when I got in touch with Brent. At first I was literally in tears at the thought of even using a prong collar, an ecollar and having to board my boy for a month and asked if there was no positive reinforcement only we could do and Brent simply said
"How's that been working for you?" It hadn't.
I had to change the way I was approaching Charlie's training or give him up as the situation was getting dangerous. I was not disappointed. Brent, Sarah and Terry have been fantastic and Charlie came back a new dog! No more destructive behaviour! While there Charlie's reactivity was completely under control, since coming home we've had some issues but now it's a me problem and Brent has been there every step of the way giving me direction on how to become a better handler even since Charlie's return home.
They are some of the most caring and professional people I've met and words can't even describe how impactful they've been on mine and my boy's relationship. We are both better for have worked with the Complete K9 team!

Massey's owner wanted to try something new with her at Bite Club.
No one wants to volunteer their vehicle for a "Car Jacking" scenario, so we improvised 😅

Walter is definitely on the "gentler" side of Human Reactivity, but he is still a potential risk.
Our job as Trainers that specialize in Behaviour isn't just training commands, it's also obtaining a psychological understanding of who Walter is and where the Reactivity is coming from so that we are addressing the root of the problem, and not just the symptom.

Things to know about Rey
Most importantly, she rediculously sweet. Just a loving soul all around.
Her challenges don't come from being reactive or aggressive.
Her challenges come from being so exceptionally skilled at being stubborn that she can teach a class on it.
I mean, she would literally dig in her heel in protest.
Protest of what you ask? Anything. It wasn't about not want to do "whatever" she was protesting against, it was about calling the shots.

Finn has successfully completed our 5 Week Board and Train Program for Human Reactivity!
Finn wasn't just reactive towards strangers, he would also show aggressive tendencies towards his owners but trying to dominate the home and guard objects.
The majority of cases we work for Reactivity are fear based, and this was very true for Finn, especially when it came to new people. But he would also try and dominate aspect of his home and relationship with his owners so this is what we put in place:
Impulse Control Training: the place command is excellent for this. That means no more hiding and behaving aggressively towards guests and his owners. By doing this, he is also learning 👇
Stress Management: bubble wrapping our dogs and forever avoiding things that may cause slight discomfort isn't helping our dogs and it certainly isn't contributing to their qualify of life. Reactivity and fear is stressful for dogs and for owners but it doesn't have to be an ongoing thing and we help them overcome it by 👇
Building Thresholds: this is a slow introduction with a gradual build up so that dogs can properly process whats happening around them, ultimately learning that what they were afraid of, really isn't that scary. By practicing this, we are helping with 👇
Confidence building: confident dogs are happy dogs, and happy dogs are safe dogs, and safe dogs make for happy owners that can reclaim their enjoyment with their pets.
Finns owners investment into his training means that Finn won't be surrendered/rehomed, or something worse, just because he made a bad judgement call that could have been avoided.
The place command will also be used to help manage over excitement and adjust to new people in the home safely.
Congratulations on completing our Bootcamp Program Finn!

I once described Aries as a BIG Dog with BIG Emotions and BIG Reactions to them.
That in no way accurately describes how dangerous he was to everyone outside of the family.
Not everyone can do the kind of training we are doing here. Most people don't want to because it not safe. But it's a risk we are willing to take on IF YOU DO THE WORK AND FOLLOW THE PROGRAM!
And Aries family is. They have stepped up and are taking their role in his reform seriously and are experiencing all the benefits of Behaviour Modification Training.
Aries is still Aries and he always will be, just with a lot less of the undesirable behaviour that brought him here. Our approach is always one of kindness and care with clear lines of communication.

Kickass IPO1, IGP2 and one hell of an amazing dog!
#dogtraining #dogtrainer #dog #dogs #training #workingdog #igp #ipo #psa #schutzhund #sport #sportdog
Aries' Reactivity towards dogs and people is extreme. Given his size we have to put precautions in place to keep everyone safe, and this starts with properly communicating in a way he understands.
This video of me knocking and coming in with my hood up is a big achievement for him and he really worked hard to keep his composure. The only way to help a dog overcome their fear reactivity is to make them face their fears. There is a right and wrong way to do this and with a dog like Aries, it's important to get it right the first time. This is where Trainers come in.
Aries' training is heavily reward based. His confidence is so low that he is always needing to be reminded he's a good boy. But he still needs to hear "no" once in awhile because boundaries and structure are healthy in every relationship, even the ones we have with our pets.
Good boy Aries 🥰

It's been 483 Days since Winter was taken in by Fur Warriors after being abandoned @ by the original Rescue that brought her to Canada.

One dog (left) has undergone extensive training to develop the necessary skills and confidence to handle any situation efficiently, thus ensuring the protection of both you and your family. Furthermore, she possesses the sociability and adaptability required to comfortably interact with new people and new environments
In contrast, the other dog poses a potential threat, as it lacks the training and skills necessary to handle various situations or stress safely and responsibly. This dog's behaviour could potentially harm an innocent person who doesn't pose a threat, making it a liability in any given scenario.
*disclaimer, I opted to use stock footage rather than a client's dog, but the point remains*
Strong dogs with strong behaviours require strong leadership to make these pets balanced, confident and safe in any given circumstance. But the reality is that people rarely put in the work necessary to achieve this goal and thus end up with a dog that's unpredictable.

Newly adopted Wiser was sent to us right after being Rescued. After struggling with behavioural issues with their older dog, Wisers family wanted to make sure that their boy was set up for long term success by coming to us for Foundational Obedience Training. Everything we are teaching Wiser now will help them though all the stages of his development into adulthood.
We use the Place Command for different reasons depending on the dog or the behaviour, but for Wiser he is learning impulse control. There is a time and place for puppy antics, and dogs must always have constructive outlets and time to "be a dog", but learning to be calm is an important process as well and something people either neglect to train it or just aren't sure how to.
He is also recieving reliable recall training, learning leash walking etiquette and is being crate trained.

A well timed correction means you are preventing your dog from building up to a more reactive state. It also communicates that what's coming next isn't acceptable or neccessary.
If we missed or ignored this que, what would follow is an excalated reactive state that would take more effort to bring him down from. A simple well timed verbal "no" was all that was needed to guide him into a more positive mindset.
So what was the que?
It was an ever so slight shift in his body language and a look in his eye that told us what was coming next. But look how quickly he relaxed afterwards 🥰

Sasha's family went from living in stress and uncertainty because of her extreme reactivity, to enjoying having company over, going for walks and even having freedom at their cottage thanks to our program.
Here is what they had to say:
"Sending our dog Sasha to Brent was the best decision we ever made. She is an extremely reactive 11 month old German Shepherd. I couldn't walk her, she barked at everyone and everything as well as she was becoming aggressive to strangers coming to our home. Brent was amazing when we picked her up and he worked with us to be able to continue the training he had put to place. Upon coming home she has been amazing:) I am now able to walk Sasha and I am not scared to pass another dog! She walks right by my side and doesn't pull me. As well she has become less reactive to new people coming into her home! I can't say enough amazing things about Brent and Sarah and our experience."
🎓 Board and Train Graduate: Sept, 2021
