TRAINING:
K9 FUNdamentals can help you by offering training using positive reinforcement and reducing the unwanted behaviour your dog is showing. Our initial consultation takes approximately an hour. What we will cover off is:
• Discuss with you the issues you would like addressed
• We will conduct an observational assessment
• From there we’ll work out an initial plan for training your dog

If you want balance back by having FUN and getting the FUNdamentals right with your dog, then please get in contact with us for a consultation.

We we're out today which meant the fur kids stayed home. After arriving home, the two hearing-able fur kids greeted us but the deaf fur-kid was still fast asleep. Bailee happily snoozed for another 20 minutes. We didn't want to disturb her deep slumber.

What does progress look like when you’re training? Well that depends on the capability of the dog you’re training, the environment you’re training in, and the owner understanding how they need to adapt to set the dog up to succeed.

For Bear, progress is realising that if he focuses and listens to the person at then end of his lead then he gets what he values - to keep walking and sniffing.

Is it easy for Bear? No, in fact sometimes it’s frustrating and he struggles. He’s been pulling and not listening for over a year so I don’t expect him to suddenly change.

Is it easy for his owner? No. Training takes time, consistency and patience, and let’s be honest sometimes we all lack those abilities!

Progress for Bear today was being able to Come Back and Sit when he started pulling. His success rate was 30%, but that’s better than what he was doing previously… and that’s progress for Bear 👏🏻

Meet Margot.....

Newly adopted in January 2025, this cute, wee little deaf girl is loving her new life with an adoring Mum and Dad.

We're working with the family on the use of sign language and auto check-ins for communicating and learning.

Love the hairdo after Margot got a satisfying head rub!

Lovely to catch up with Charlie again.

This time around we visited Charlie and family for an in-home consult. Charlie is reactive to different sights and sounds immediately outside of her home.

We talked through various ways to help Charlie reduce the opportunity to bark at triggers. By managing her options to race to different vantage points around the property we've started to disrupt the patterned behaviour.

Have we solved the issue? Nope, we have a way to go but for now we are reducing Charlie's reactivity safely when at home.

Alongside this, we'll be working on different approaches to counter condition Charlies behaviour. We're looking to help her comfortably be less impulsive to want to bark at everything that goes past.
