Bosco’s Story, UPK9 PEI, Ultimate Obedience Testimonial

September 19, 2012 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

Bosco’s Story, UPK9 PEI, Ultimate Obedience Testimonial

“Bosco is a wonderful, loving dog, who enjoys being around people. He possesses a large amount of energy and loves to play and run. However, at times, this energy has manifested as aggression and even disobedience.  The biggest reason I searched out Duke Ferguson at Unleashed Potential K9 Academy was because I had exhausted all my avenues for attempting to curb Bosco’s unwanted behaviours.  Through private consultation, Duke was able to tailor a plan for Bosco that met his unique needs.  Specifically, Bosco was so stressed in the beginning of training that he did not have a strong drive for food.  What worked for us was using his toys to train.  Now, when I bring out the e-collar he understands that its time to do something fun but that he has to listen and be mindful of his behaviour! Although there is always room for improvement, Bosco continues to progress! Thanks to Unleashed Potential for working with us and offering their continued support!! ”

Ozzy Rotti Board and Train with UPK9 PEI

September 17, 2012 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

photo-3-e1346339762704-764x1024Ozzy Rotti Board and Train with UPK9 PEI

Our 9 month old Rottweiler, Ozzy, has been back with us for a couple of weeks since boarding with Duke. The change has truly been remarkable. He is much calmer around house and walking him no longer requires upper body strength, and is in fact quite enjoyable. Even our youngest son can now confidently take him out for walks and play. In summary the training has enabled Ozzy to truly integrate into our family.

Successful Husky Training with Unleashed Potential!

August 27, 2012 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

Husky Training in Halifax NS!

Hi my name is Jenny Lind, I have a 10 month old Husky mix named Gizmo. Four weeks ago, Gizmo was a SPAZ! He would get up on the counters, he barked at people walking by, he would jump out at bicycles. He could not sit, stay, or come. He was not able to go off leash and he pulled badly on the leash. If that were not enough, he had plenty of food aggression. So I contacted Unleashed Potential and now he’s like a different dog!

I recently took him to my Vet and she didn’t even recognize him because he was so obedient in the clinic. When I come back to Halifax next summer, I am looking forward to bringing Gizmo back with me so we can do group classes with other dogs. I have already recommended Unleashed Potential to other dog owners and friends. Thanks again for helping me get Gizmo trained properly. Now I can enjoy him even more!

Jenny Lind.

Testimonial with “Zeus” German Shepherd UPK9: Halifax

Testimonial with “Zeus” German Shepherd and UPK9

My German Shepherd dog Zeus and I just completed our training with Unleashed Potential  and the training  was great!  . UPK9  helped me turn my dog into a very happy well trained dog who now gets along with others. I could not be more pleased with the results and was worth every penny to have a 120 lbs. of manageable dog. My husband thought I was crazy at first but even in the first lesson he was impressed.

This training is worth the time and effort and money.  If your dog is not very social or does not listen call Unleashed Potential and they will give you a more loving friend that you can take with you anywhere.

Thanks again, from myself and Zeus!

Puppy Management Testimonial UPK9: PEI

July 16, 2012 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

Unleashedclients12Puppy Management Testimonial UPK9: PEI

My boyfriend and I have now attended puppy class twice with our Burmese mountain dog mix Rudy. So far puppy class has been a ton of fun and Rudy really loves socializing with all the other puppies. She has learned how to come, sit, lay down, go to place and look. As we all know having a puppy can be frustrating at times, so it very reassuring to have someone teach you how to communicate clearly with your puppy and how much to expect from your puppy. I was having a difficult time crate training Rudy so I sent unleashed potential  a message.  We learned about crate training and more. Since then Rudy has slept in her crate for 5 nights in a row now! I am so happy I signed Rudy and I up for puppy class and I can wait to go back next week!
