✨Initial consultation w Marley✨
This week we met with Marley and her new family, she has recently been adopted.

Like many young pups adjusting to a new environment, Marley is learning that the world can be a big and sometimes overwhelming place. Our focus with Marley will be building confidence in specific social situations — helping her feel calm, curious, and secure when faced with new people, places, and sounds.

Through positive exposure, gentle guidance, and lots of encouragement, we’ll help Marley grow into a well-rounded, resilient young dog who enjoys new adventures with confidence. 🐾

Meet our newest magical trio – Raven, Storm & Luna! 🌙✨

These three newbies have joined us for day training, and I have to say… I am absolutely in my element with this crew. 💫 Each of them brings their own spark and energy to the session, and I’m already seeing those lightbulb moments starting to flicker on.

From confidence-building games to focused foundation skills, today’s been all about setting them up for success and helping them shine in their own unique way.

Can’t wait to see how far these three go – it’s going to be a fun ride! 🚀🐾

✨ Building Strong Foundations for Every Dog ✨

At K9 Services NZ, we specialise in Foundation Work, the essential building blocks that set your dog up for a lifetime of success. Whether it’s a puppy, an adolescent, or an adult dog, the right foundations make all the difference.

Foundation work isn’t just basic obedience. It’s about:

👉Focus & Attention: Teaching your dog to notice you first, even with distractions

👉Impulse Control: Helping your dog stay calm in exciting situations

👉Confidence & Resilience: Preparing your dog to handle new experiences without stress

👉Reliable Communication: Establishing clear cues that your dog understands

✨ Why it’s so important:
Dogs that start with strong foundations are less likely to develop behaviour issues, are more confident in social situations, and respond better to advanced training or real-world challenges. Foundation work strengthens the bond between you and your dog, making life together calmer, happier, and more predictable.

🐶 Breed-Specific Foundations:
Different breeds have different needs, instincts, and energy levels. At K9 Services, we tailor our foundation work to each dog’s breed traits:

High-energy breeds: focus on impulse control, mental stimulation, and structured outlets for energy

Independent or breeds known to be stubborn: focus on motivation, engagement, and clarity in communication

Sensitive or reactive breeds: focus on confidence-building, stress management, and safe social exposure

Working breeds: focus on reliable obedience, focus under distractions, and task-specific foundations

By starting with the right foundations for your dog’s breed and personality, you’re giving them the best chance to succeed, whether that’s in everyday life, skilled companion work, or advanced training.

📌 Start strong. Build the foundation. Shape a confident, happy dog.
