At Top Tier K9's® Academy for Dog Trainers you learn to train dogs...for other people. pets and working dogs!

Meaning, you learn to create and run a dog training business and learn the world's greatest approach to successfully training dogs for people who are paying you to do that.

The training is scalable, and most importantly, transferable to the buyer.

The dog learns in a consistent, measurable process that runs side by side with the training of the owner(s), so the dog and owner can enjoy better lives, together.

It all starts with training you to train pets of all breeds and to successfully establish a pet training business.

You can then opt to join us in the world of working dogs, Foundation Dogs®, the process and skillset to train dogs to track, find specific odor, perform protection tasks, work as service dogs, or deploy as special security dogs for the public and private sectors.

Our Litters on the Ground program feeds your puppy needs for training and deployment of working dogs in your own community. You can then learn to become a professional breeder and start your own litters on the ground program, for your training needs and to sell back into our network of certified trainers and locations.

in 2024 Top Tier K9 was recognized as the world's greatest dog training company. An offshoot of the program, our pet training program which is included in a level 1 franchise, was also recognized as the #1 pet training program in the entire state of Florida.

Establish your own Top Tier K9 through www.TopTierK9Franchising.com and see the difference we can make in your life and in the quality of dog training for your community.

Next class starts January 9th, 2025 with day and night options

Top Tier K9 Franchising is the company responsible for the franchise system of Top Tier K9, recognized as the world's greatest dog training company.

Getting ready for the Tier 3 testing of the 22 puppies! January 4th, 2025 great way to ring in the New Year.

At 18 weeks old, my two little fellers,

✅ Tracking: nose down tracking with turns and no food on the track. Indicating on articles. 10 feet in front of handler.

✅ Protection: At end of leash barking, handles pressure, calm, bite, re-bite, stays engaged with the decoy, good out

✅ Scent detection: Finds and indicates on hides in rooms with distractions

✅ Obedience: In motion commands, pose/stand, out command, recall, picking any item off ground for retrieve.

✅ Both living with me in the house and snuggling, clean and calm in crates. It never gets old.

This has been an amazing Foundation Dog® trainer cycle. We have 5 dogs in-house from the 22 ready to deploy as Tier 3 Foundation Dogs® to their units or serious dog owner home for protection, service and special security. The other 17 are all trained and owned by their trainers for use as demo dogs, personal protection dogs, service dogs or for sale in their local franchise area.

A company in South America tried to rip us off. I can't stress enough to use Paypal when you order things. When the scammers don't deliver, Paypal investigates and will get your money back from the scammers.

Then, all the scammers can do is lie about it on social media.

Onward and upward. We will happily share the company, their names, and even the name of the charity they used to apparently launder money.

One thing is certain, they will have problems coming into the good ole US of A from now on. Good to have friends at the State Department ;-)

Load = pressure that creates conflict. Load management is teaching dogs to manage their own load through effective conflict management

The pose and the pose in motion

Tier 2 certified Foundation Dogs® have a solid "pose" or "stand" command, allowing someone like a vet or vet tech to inspect your dog. A great tool for helping your dog manage the pressure of vet and groomer visits.

Tier 3 certified Foundation Dogs have a "pose" or "stand" in motion, meaning the dog will obey and maintain the command as you walk away and through distractions off-leash.

At 17 weeks old, Canella is posing at the command point as the trainer continues walking away. Canella tests for Tier 3 certification on January 4th, 2025, and is hammering all four functional areas of Foundation Dog training: tracking, scent detection, protection, and advanced obedience, including the conditioned retrieve.

At Top Tier K9® we train and certify the trainers. We breed, train, and certify the dogs as well. We then train the buyer/handler to exploit the power of Foundation Dogs® provided by the world's greatest dog training company. Check for a certified trainer in your community through our Franchise system and acquire the creme de la creme of working dogs...a Foundation Dog®.
