Learning Objectives

Our programs are designed to do a lot more than just teach your dog how to sit or come when called. We want a dog that you can fully enjoy both at home and on your family vacations. Whether you’re walking through a busy park, having guests over or going on a trip, you will have consistent expectations and peace of mind! What follows is a list of items which can be included in your customized program. Specific items from below will be strategically utilized in your program to offer a complete training program that is just what you need.

Intensive Obedience Training
Our expert trainers will guide your dog to master a range of commands, including:

  • Sit (with an implied stay)
  • Down (with an implied stay)
  • Come/Recall
  • Loose Leash Walking (demonstrating environmental neutrality)
  • Place (with an implied stay)
  • Leave It
    Each command is rigorously proofed to ensure reliability both on-leash and off-leash.
  •  

Manners and House Etiquette
We focus on cultivating a balanced temperament and respectful behavior, covering:

  • Courteous greetings for guests
  • Environmental neutrality in varied settings
  • Respect for household thresholds
  • Controlled responses to doorbells, knocks, and visitors
  • Confidence during vet visits and public outings
  •  

Behavioral Training

These training objectives are more complex and require more time. This is going beyond the basics of obedience and dealing with how your dog sees and reacts to their environment.

  • Nervous of environment/people
  • Reactivity to environment/people
  • Reactivity toward dogs/animals
  • Aggression towards dogs/animals
  • Resource guarding
  • Neurological conditions
  • Child and dog safety

Training Formats

  • Training at Our Facility
    Your dog will get to come work with our experienced team at our facility to help immerse them in a training environment. While with us, it is our responsibility to ensure the training goals set forth during our evaluation are being completed.
  • Exclusive Owner Sessions
    Benefit from a series of private sessions where we provide a detailed walkthrough of the training techniques your dog has mastered. These sessions ensure a seamless transition of skills from our facility back into your home.
  • Premium Training Tools
    During our training, we utilize training tools to assist in our process. Not every program will have each of these tools. The tools we utilize are the e-collar and prong collar—selected specifically for your dog’s continued success—which you will take home upon program completion.

Next Steps

1. Discovery Call
We begin with a 20-minute discovery call to discuss your basic needs and ensure our programs are the right fit for you and your dog.

2. In-Home Evaluation
Next, we schedule a 1-hour in-home evaluation. The purpose of this session is to gather all the necessary information we need to build your customized program for you. During this session, we will:

  • Meet your dog and assess their temperament, obedience levels, and behavioral concerns.
  • Meet your family (all decision-makers must be present) to review household schedules, activity levels, environmental variables and training goals.

This evaluation helps us understand your dog’s home environment and ensures the optimal setup for training success. 

3. Customized Plan
We will conclude our evaluation by presenting your customized plan, answering any clarifying questions and scheduling a start date.

I love Nexus k9! I brought my two dog into training to help with resource guarding and fighting. During their training the staff made sure to send lots of videos and pictures and kept me very updated on what to expect. Now I have my girls back home and they are doing really well!!!! Before training I was so stressed and worried I would be having to rehome one of my girls, now they are doing so well I know I will be able to keep both of my girls and keep them happy, heathy and safe. Additionally, the training the staff gave me as a dog owner really gave me so much more comfortability and knowledge in what to do to keep my girls safe! This training was worth every penny! Thank you Nexus!!!!

Kristi is amazing! She not only helped us with our extremely skittish GSD, but saved my sanity in the process. We had gotten Ghost earlier this year at 8 months old. He had never been socialized around people and that resulted in pacing and excessive fear barking. Never at me, but EVERYONE else including my husband. This went on for months before we found Nexus K9. She helped us change what we were doing in order to change the way he thinks and responds to the unfamiliar. He's a much calmer dog now. I'm thankful for the tools and skills she gave us so we can keep training and building his confidence up. Thanks Kristi! Y'all are the best!!

Words cannot describe how happy we are. She is a completely different dog! She was good before, but after going to Nexus K9, I have cried more than a few times with tears of joy.
