About me-
Hi, I'm Paul and my family and I have opened our own small business called Citizen K-9 Training academy after training at other Lincoln business's for a number of years. In total I have been training dogs for over 12 years. I have gained experience through working at Camp Bow Wow and earned the highest level of achievement for dog behavior and group play that they offer. I also was the assistant trainer at Kenl Inn as well as the head trainer at Woof. I was the head trainer at Second Chance Pups for four years and continue to stay as active with them as I can. All of these experiences plus receiving my education at the world renowned Tom Rose School has allowed me to learn and master many different styles of training techniques. The Tom Rose School is a hands on professional dog training school where you get to work with all different types of dog.
I received the most comprehensive education and hands-on training in the world. This is very important as no dog learns the same and it is important to adapt to each individual dog and owner. At the Tom Rose school, all testing is based on nationally recognized dog competition events, including those governed by the American Kennel Club (AKC), Schutzhund (DVG, USA, WDA), National Narcotic Detector Dog Association (NNDDA), United Kennel Club (UKC), and other major national and international kennel clubs. The school has been around since 1979 and is known world wide. My class alone had two people from outside the country! To be the best you have to learn from the best!
It is very important that you find a dog trainer you like for both you and for your dog, as that person will be helping you shape your dog or puppy into a life long loved family member. Every dog has a unique personality and disposition. Because of this, every dog needs to be trained differently. This requires a trainer with a diverse set of experiences, training skills, and a wealth of knowledge. With all the different techniques, methods and philosophies itās more important than ever that you find a trainer who doesnāt have just one method or a āfix allā. But one who is also constantly learning and evolving as well. As we learn more and more about dogs and the way they learn we also need to learn and adjust our training techniques to ensure we setting you and your dog up for the best training experience possible. I am constantly attending seminars, workshops and active in the dog training community to ensure I am providing the best training possible!
Whether you want to train a young puppy, or an older dog, you need expert guidance to effectively train your four-legged friend. If you love your dog, you can count on me, Paul Stromberg, owner of Citizen K-9 Training Academy to train your dog with what is BEST for the dog and for you!
CK9 provides you with all your training needs we do group classes, Private lessons in home and at my facility as well as board and trains!

Class descriptions
* Everything Puppy- This is a 6-week beginning obedience, socialization and exposure course, designed especially for puppies. Proper socialization and exposure is the most vital component of your puppy's healthy development into a friendly, well-adjusted adult dog. Adequate socialization/exposure to other puppies,people, sights,sounds and environments during their developmental period teaches puppies how to communicate properly with other dogs as well as people, develop bite inhibition, and helps prevent future dog-aggression. We will also talk about and work on how to properly expose our puppies to all the things they might see and experience as the grow, this well help them be a weāll adjust and confident adult dog. In addition to socialization, this class also covers basic obedience training (sit, down, stay, come, leave it. As well as problem prevention (biting, barking, chewing) using positive reinforcement. We will also cover puppy basics such as house-training, crating, and proper socialization. We focus on socialization and confidence building a bit more here, as we have a very short window in which to imprint on your puppy. Each class will conclude with a 15 min supervised play session. This is a fun and relaxed class as we want puppies to have training imprinted as something fun and positive so that they are eager to train as they get older!
* Basic Manners 101 is a 6-week dog training class for beginning obedience and problem-behavior prevention designed to build a better relationship between you and your dog. Teach your dog to sit, down, stand, stay, come, walk on leash nicely, and leave it on hand signal and voice command. We will also cover common behavior problems such as jumping up, pulling, excessive barking. Learn how dogs learn differently from humans, and how to apply that knowledge to dog training. Like in puppy we will continue to socialize your dog to new people and dogs. This class is set up to get you ready to help you and your dog get a better deeper connection and is a great class to take so you can really get your pup started on the path to a happier and more well adjusted dog! We will also cover different training styles and techniques so we can decide which would suit you and your dog best this is vital as no dogs learn the same! After learning the different methods available you and I can help decide which will give you the best opportunity to maximize your dogs potential. Dogs must be current on rabies and DHPP vaccinations
* CGC Class- Would you like your dog to be a well-mannered member of canine and human society? We'll take 6 weeks to prepare you and your dog to pass the AKC Canine Good Citizen Test, which will be administered on the last day of class. This class will teach your dog how to sit politely during greetings, petting, grooming, and examination; how to walk politely on a loose leash, including through crowds of people and when meeting other dogs and people; to sit, down, stay, and come on cue; and to maintain focus around distractions and remain calm when you are out of sight. This fun class is a wonderful way for you and your dog to take you relationship to the next level!
* CGC Urban and Community- Once you and your pup have earned you CGC Tile this class is the biggest reward! You and your pup will go out into the public/real world and get to put all your new found skills to the test. Plus learn some new ones while we train to pass these two AKC test. This class is challenging but the rewards during and after class are worth it! If you ever wanted to do therapy work, get good ground work for a assistance dog this class will get you headed in the right direction and give you the skills and confidence to realize your dreams of having your dog make a big impact on someoneās life. We will go into local businesses and practice all the new skills then test on the sixth week! This class is the true fun and rewarding challenge you have been looking for!
* Reactive dog rehab-
Does your dog whine, growl, bark, snarl, snap, lung or jump at other dogs or people when he walks on leash? Does he act like Cujo outdoors, but you know him to be like Lassie at home? Or do they hide behind you when you want to try to get them to meet a new person or dog. Maybe you have the dog who is just so excited about life they they can't contain themselves. This class will teach you how to handle these situations in the real world, giving you and your dog the confidence and knowledge needed to handle these challenging moments and to. We work on getting your dog to stay focused on you and not the thing they are having an issue with.
The biggest goal we are working towards is helping retrain our dogs brain to not be fearful and lash out at the āthingā wether that be a dog, human or anything. This is a program I have made and customized over my 10 years experience training! This area of dog training is something I found I have a passion for as we dealt with truly aggressive dogs while I was working with them during my schooling. I got a lot of hand on experience with all sizes and breeds!
* Intermediate- We take all the basics we learned and take them to the next level! We start remove treats and work to get our dogs to be able to do training without those pesky leashes! This challenging but fun class is where all of your hard work with your pup comes together and you get to take your relationship to the next level! This class concludes with a very fun but challenging test that is all off leash! It is called the Stryker test to memorialize my best friend and dog I lost. Once you have successfully scored high enough you will receive a 50% discount on this class. That will get you 6 class spots that you can use when you decide to! My goal here is to create a class people can come back to when itās convenient for them and continue to work on their dogs obedience, manners and improving your score on the Stryker obedience test. This is important because we are never truly done training our best friends!
