It's common to come across social media posts from individuals searching for their missing dogs. The desperation and anguish these individuals must be experiencing is genuinely heart-wrenching.
As a dog behavior specialist with extensive experience, I've assisted numerous individuals in preventing their dogs from running away. Understanding the underlying cause behind the behavior is crucial in effectively addressing it and ensuring it doesn't recur.
I offer two options to address your dog's running away behavior. My Drop-in classes are priced at just $10 per class, providing a cost-effective solution. Alternatively, Private Sessions offer personalized insights to understand the root causes of this behavior and effectively prevent it. Both options aim to ensure your dog's safety and bring peace of mind to you as a pet owner.

**Dogs Do Not Like the Crate**. Roy explains using a crate is highly beneficial for dogs when done correctly. It can aid in house training, prevent destructive behavior, and offer a comfortable space for the dog to retreat to. Crates are not something dogs inherently dislike. It all comes down to how the crate is introduced and used. When used correctly, crates are a valuable tool in a dog owner's arsenal, providing comfort, security, and structure for their furry companions.
Roy Hayes educates dog owners on the reasons behind their dog's behavior, emphasizing the underlying motivations for their actions. His philosophy centers on enhancing the bond between owners and their pets by fostering understanding of the root causes of behavior. Through this approach, Roy enables owners to communicate effectively with their dogs, tackle behavioral challenges, and establish relationships built on trust and mutual respect.
Attention is not something that you teach. You must earn it. Merely using hand gestures and treats to make a dog look at your eyes is ineffective in establishing genuine attention or eye contact. To truly capture and maintain a dog's attention, one must establish themselves as the leader in the relationship.
As you build your leadership skills with your dog, you'll notice a shift in their behavior. Your dog will start seeking guidance from you more often, marking the beginning of an exciting phase in training. During this time, your dog will rapidly pick up new desirable behaviors while undesirable habits gradually diminish.

This was shared today by Randy.
Rayne’s friend Sheba, Sheba was at a junk yard and was going to be put down because she was too “wild”. A customer at the junk yard told them he would take her.
Her new owner saw Rayne and I training with Roy from K9 Advantage. Her owner told us Sheba was so wild she couldn’t be near people or other dogs. Roy gave him his card and we told him about the drop in classes on Saturdays.
After just a few classes Sheba could lay down near Rayne. I’m so happy for her and her new owner. It would have been such a waste of a beautiful dog. Sheba just needed structure, consistency and for someone to show her what to do.
Rayne was a tired pup after class, kicking back in her kennel.

A Double Edge Sword
Two verbs and a noun, "Anticipate, Associate, and Expectation," play a significant role in shaping the behaviors of our canine companions. These words profoundly impact our daily interactions with dogs, influencing their learning processes and behaviors.
Hey there! Let me tell you why dogs are just the best. Did you know that when we snuggle with our furry pals, our bodies release oxytocin, the "love hormone"? Yep, it's true! This hormone is responsible for that warm, fu...

I can train any dog
Owner and trainer, Roy Hayes, has been training dogs since 1986. In 1989 Roy created K9 Advantage in Richmond, CA with the idea he would give his clients the “K9 Advantage”.
Roy went to Pro-Train, a state accredited school, in Oakland, CA and was certified in Puppy & Adult Obedience, Behavior Modification, Police Dog Training and Kennel Management. Upon completion, Pro-Train hired Roy, and he started training Police dogs with the San Francisco PD, Napa PD, and Solono County Sheriff's Dept.
As a volunteer behaviorist at the San Francisco SPCA, Roy helped people from all over the country with their dog’s behavior problems and helped create a training program for volunteer dog walkers to help reduce the return rate of adopted dogs.
Roy held twenty-two obedience classes a week for puppy and adult dogs in the San Francisco Bay Area. During this time, he also helped start a Dog Bite Prevention program for Oakland Elementary Schools with Glen Howe of the Oakland Animal Control.
In 2005, he moved to the Kingman area. Roy trained dogs for PETCO from 2006 – 2011. In 2007, he helped co-found Mohave CARE-Net. In 2008, CARE-Net and Roy created Friends from the Pen (a dog rehabilitation and training program at the AZ State Prison in Kingman, AZ).
Between 2006 - 2012 Roy worked with local shelters ( For the Luv of Paws , HALT - Help Animals Lives Today , and Western Arizona Humane Society ) and other volunteers socializing and training dogs.
