One of the best benefits to being a dog trainer is getting to work with awesome dogs! Everyone say hi to Kai!

It’s always excellent to see little wins with dogs! Kayla and Kallie have been doing an awesome job in training, and now are taking those skills to the real world. Here they are traveling through a busy airport on a trip, with Kallie being super confident! Great job guys!

Say hello to our newest Board and Train student O’reo! She is a 5 year old blue heeler, with not the greatest history with adult males. When I picked her up yesterday to bring her home she was trying to eat me. When we got her home last night she was worn out from driving down the I-4(me too O’reo, me too).

This morning started with me laying on my back to get her to come near me. I’m a big guy so being smaller made her feel more comfortable. She then let Beth love on her more, and it evolved into me sitting on the couch loving on her, and eventually her on the couch with me. Successive approximation in action 😉

Rapport with a dog is the foundation underneath Obedience. If you want to build Obedience in your dog, you first have to build the relationship with your dog.

When you board and train with , your dog is not just put in a kennel and taken out only to use the bathroom or train. Your dog becomes part of our family and each family member becomes an intricate part of the training process. We love you Whiskey! Keep on learning buddy, and thank you Kim and Joe for sharing him with us! 🐕 ❤️

Another short one of Whiskey killing it! We’re so proud of him!

Everyone say Hi to Whiskey! He’s been with us the last week and some change. Board and train is a rewarding experience not only for the dog but for my family as well! My wife and two kids welcome the dogs into our house like family, because that’s what they are! Thank you Kimberly for sharing your Whiskey with us!

“Although our days together may be marked by the passing of the seasons…

Know that each day at your side is my reward.”

Happy K9 Veterans Day to all the past and present RMWDs, Police K9, as well as any other working dog that earned their place on the couch, and in Valhalla.

Does your dog…

😱 Pull on the leash?
😵‍💫 Jump up on guests,family, yourself?
🤬 Chew on stuff?
😵‍💫 Not come to you when you call them?
😞😓👿😳😠 Generally not as well behaved as you’d like them to be?

And you want them to…..

✅ Walk beside you without pulling?
✅ Greet guests, family, and yourself in a controlled position?
✅ Not chew up your Air Jordan 1’s?
✅ Come to you in any environment?
😍😇😁🤩🤑 Generally just be an obedient dog that knows at least 5 commands?

Then you need to……

Send me a message, that’s pretty much it. 😂😂😂

So in this video taken during my time overseas you’ll see a handler with his Military Working Dog riding in a basket out of and into a helo.

What looks like a simple ride is so much more then that. It took weeks of prep work. Starting with introduction to the helo with the MWD, without engines on. Next was walking around the same helo with engines on. Next was a ride in the helo. Next was sitting in that basket on the ground with the dog while playing/loving on the dog. FINALLY, came riding in the basket and what you see in the video.

Who can tell me what this training method is? First person to comment it below gets the pride of knowing they’re better then everyone else 😂, and a DownLeash K9 sticker (when they’re made).

Good morning everyone! I’d like to start today by answering any and all of your questions! Feel free to ask me here on this post or PM me! Happy almost weekend! 🐕 🎉

Welcome Everyone! This is Adam, I am the owner/operator/head trainer/driver/whatever you would like to call me, just don't call me late for dinner (ba dum tishhh). This is DownLeash K9, my literal pet project. I am here and available for all dog training needs. My experience is of the real world. I come from Military Working Dog K9, with other experience in private K9 work. Obedience, Detection, and Protection are my main areas of focus, hence the three headed Cerberus.

"Everything travels down leash". Here at DLK9 I believe that everything we feel on one end of the leash, travels down that same leash, and into our dog. You're happy today? Dog is happy. You're upset today because gas is 5 dollars a gallon? Me too, but also Dog is upset. You hired Adam to train your dog and he can't wait to teach that dog all kinds of new tasks? Dog is excited and ready to learn.

Feel free to like the page, leave a comment, follow, or message me anytime. Thank you to everyone who has pushed me to take this step, it certainly was a tough one!
