Small Dog Training is Possible!

October 10, 2023 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

Training a small dog is possible!

Our Miniature Pinscher Board & Train, Gus, is officially home with his owners after a month full of training! Here is what his owners had to say:

  “It’s day 4 since Gus came home and we have already noticed big differences!

Before going to UPK9 and working with Coach Sara, Gus was very much out of control (not his fault 100 percent ours). He would constantly jump on anyone or anything that moved. Just jumped and barked when anyone came in and hated to walk on leash. Going for a drive was also a nightmare.

  Since being home we noticed how much calmer Gus has been. He loves to train and go for walks with no leash pulling! I can do day to day chores without him needing my attention all the time. He is not constantly trying to jump and get what we are carrying. Before, when I would take him to the vet he thought he could play with every dog. When we went on Thursday for a wellness check he just sat by my side. That in its self amazed me!

  He has also become so much more affectionate. Loves to sit with my husband when I’m not in the room. But when Momma comes back he is all my dog. We just woke up from a 2 hour cuddle nap!”

– Owners Jacinta & Ralph

We are loving this update and can’t wait to hear more as Gus and his family flourish together for the years to come! We sure will miss him 🙂

Boarding for a Reactive Dog

March 29, 2023 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

Our Board & Train program is open for all dogs no matter their level of reactivity! Your dog will be boarding with a Professionally Certified Dog Trainer for a month minimum and become fully trained both on and off-leash. The trainer will work with them every day in all different environments and around many people and other dogs to better socialize your dog and, in turn, lessen their reactivity.

Meet Monty!

He is a year-old Poodle who has just completed our Board and Train program with Coach Isabelle in New Brunswick.

Monty’s family came to us after his troubled behaviors got him kicked out of doggy daycare. His family needed help with his excessive barking, protective behaviors, and tendency to bite.

After a month of boarding, Monty is much calmer and obedient – he is learning that the world isn’t such a scary place!

Check out this quick Before & After video of Monty

He is now home with his family who will continue to work with him to maintain his training and unleash his full potential further!

Here is what his family had to say:

“We just took Monty for his first walk since he came home. All I can say is WOW! We are so, so glad that we did the board and train program.

Isabelle’s results with Monty are amazing and we are enjoying our dog in a whole new way!

We were also impressed with her training facility. The first thing I noticed was the cleanliness of the training and kennel areas. And of course, the location; what a gorgeous setting for long training walks.

We were delighted to see how calm and happy Monty was while Isabelle was working with him. Clearly, she created a warm and affectionate working relationship with him.

Coach Isabelle & Monty

Initially, I had worried about leaving Monty for a whole month and how he would handle the separation. However, the Monty that greeted us today was actually a calmer, more confident and happier dog than the one we left with Isabelle just weeks ago.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Everyone should know about this training – it works!”

– Owner Lori
