Did you see Freedom K9 & Siskiyou Pet Care at the Mount Shasta Holiday Parade?!
We had staff and clients with their Freedom K9 trained dogs passing out candy and either walking behind or sitting on our float.
We had a BLAST. It was great to see all the community support! Such a great turnout!
Hundreds of kids and adults running, yelling, and waving. Horns, sirens, and speakers going off.
Bright lights, bikes, UTV'S moving vehicles, trailers, large equipment. Other dogs. Distractions everywhere. Candy flying.
I'd say that was the most challenging event we could test our dog's obedience, manners, social skills, confidence, trust, and all around foundational training.
We had 6 dogs join us. A border collie, heeler, lab, german shepherd, golden retriever, and a corgi.
Ranging from 8 years old to just 1 year old.
Freedom K9 training is for real life. Whatever goals you have with your dog, you will exceed them with us. Pet dogs to service dogs. Puppy training, off-leash reliability, behavior modification to anything in between. All breeds welcome.
Do you want to join us next year? Let's talk!
Do you need help with your dog? Give us a call.
Check out our video from the parade. Our training dogs speak for themselves ❤️
Great job, everyone!

Our training brings:
Reliability, Confidence, Freedom, Happiness, & Fun!
Your dog will listen to all members of your family and anyone who knows the commands.
They will be on and off-leash reliable.
Our training is for real life!
Check out Lucky, not just listening to one person, but three! Off-Leash! Happily following through with heel, sit, down, and coming when called.
How COOL is that!
Kept it up sweet girl!
Karen, you have such a great dog! She is so much fun
What does your dog learn on their first week of our Freedom Off-Leash Board and Train?
The first week is all about building a 6-foot leash obedience foundation. They will learn important skills like eye contact, self-control, focus, and good manners. They will also learn to heel at your side with a loose leash, stay at your pace without sniffing the ground, pulling head, or lagging behind. Every time you stop walking, they will sit at your side. They will learn to sit and down with hand signals and voice commands, consistency. One command equals one action.
We don't use the word "stay." The stay is implied in every command.
Our training builds happy, confident dogs that understand boundaries and love to learn. We focus on building a bond and getting each dog into a great state of mind for their owners to be able to enjoy.
Koda is such a blast to work with and train.
Isn't she doing such a great job!?
Having fun and staying cool inside with Koda!
She's such a smart cookie!
Koda goes home at the end of the week from her Freedom Off-Leash Board and Train.
Koda is now on and off-leash reliable, she has great manners, and can go anywhere and everywhere safely with her owner!
Good girl!
It's never too late to have a RELIABLY trained dog.
Training shouldn't stop at puppy training, treats.
Yes, your dog can and should be off leash reliable.
Training brings confidence, fun, and freedom. For you, for your family, for your dog, and anyone and everyone your dog is around.
Have the dog you want to take with you. Have the dog your friends and family complement... not the one they try and avoid.
Have a great day!

Check out Juno on her last week of our Freedom Off-Leash Board and Train ❤️
Juno can be described as a sweet but low confident, nervous-nelly.
Throughout her Board and Train, we focused on building her confidence and helping her get into a better state of mind, along with her on and off-leash obedience skills. Building her trust and proper social skills around new people has been super rewarding. Look at that body wiggle towards Catherine! 🥰
As you see in the video, Juno knows Heel, Auto Sit, Sit & Down (with hand signals and voice command, let's go (which means stay close but you are free to cruise around), coming when called, and place. She also knows what "good" and "no" means.
Did she break accommand early? Yes. Does she take a second to follow through sometimes, absolutely.
Training doesn't mean your dog will be perfect all of the time. You won't have a robot.
What training gives you is the ability to communicate effectively to your dog and your dog understand and be able to follow through.
When Juno got up and started following Catherine instead of staying in the down command, Catherine calmly said no, gave her quick communication from the ecollar, paired with a hand signal. This gave Juno the clear message that she wasn't in the right command and Catherine wanted her back in the down command. Once she was back in the down command, Catherine marked the behavior with the marker word, good, so Juno knew she was in the right command.
Clear communication and understanding.
Proper training means never needing to yell, repeat yourself, darken your tone, or manhandle your dog.
Proper training builds a great relationship and bond ❤️
Good girl Juno!
Your owners are going to have so much fun with you!
Every dog loves Catherine!!! ❤️
We love what we do 🥰
Proper training brings great communication and lifelong bonds ❤️
Racecar Warm Ups!
Off-Leash heel, going from he left side of the path to the ride side.
It takes lots of focus, great communication, and self-control.
13 dogs all under control and all of us had a blast!
Training is fun!
