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!

Puppy Training in Halifax NS!

June 5, 2012 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

luca puppy large

Puppy training in Halifax NS! My dog Luka is a lab mix who just turned 12 weeks old. The day I brought him home I saw several puppy issues that needed to be addressed. He was nipping my hands, chewing, peeing inside the house, just to name a few.

Within days of having him home I decided to call Unleashed Potential  after seeing the website and videos while doing some research. A few days later we started training .  The upk9 trainer listened to my concerns and could tell that I was having a particularly hard time with Luka’s biting.

The biting was the first of the issues to be addressed and in the first week he was no longer biting me.

In the next two lessons we took take of the rest of the problem issues and taught him the basics, sit, down, come, leash walking and how to use the bathroom outdoors.

Now three weeks later I have a great dog who is much easier to live with. I would like to thank Unleashed Potential for taking the time to show me how to train my dog the right way. Now I can love him much more that he is a balanced puppy.

German Shepherd Puppy Training: Proven Results In Only 2 Lessons With UPK9

May 2, 2012 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

 

Testimonial from one of our newest Ultimate Obedience Clients

Dear Duke,

Paul and I wanted you to know how happy we are with the progress of our German Shepherd puppy, Ava, under your care, attention and training. We brought her to you only three short weeks ago. She was completely untrained, and I think we even described her to you as ‘wild’!  She was close to four months old when we got her and we brought her to you two weeks later.
With only three weeks training of one night a week, she’s like a new puppy!!

Her behavior has improved one hundred fold and she’s a pleasure to have in our family now.

Thank you so much for your kind, caring but firm training method. We look forward to continuing to teach Ava to be a well mannered family pet and look forward to our weekly classes.  We love her dearly and we’re so happy she’s learning to be a well mannered companion that’s lots of fun to have in our family.

Thanks again,

Rosie O’Malley-Keyes

UPK9 PEI: Puppy Management Class Testimonial

April 27, 2012 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

Saturdayclasses11

My husband and I have been in puppy class now for 3 weeks and we look forward to it every week! It is a lot of fun for the people and the puppies! When we first started molly was shy of other dogs and extremely timid of any dog or puppy but now she nearly runs through the door to get to the other puppies the socialization she gets at class has really changed her personality in such a positive way, molly learns new things every class. The things Duke teaches are really helpful and work wonders every time we leave class we feel relief like we are on the right path. Puppies are a lot of work and they can be frustrating but with the tools we learn at puppy class we apply it and makes life easier.. Puppy class is great for anyone wanting to socialize your dog and get them the right head start in life which every  dog deserves i would highly recommend unleashed potentials puppy class you wont be disappointed!!

Boxer Puppy MOXON Testimonial

March 28, 2012 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

Boxer Puppy Moxon Testimonial for UPK9 Puppy Management:

Joining puppy management with Unleashed Potential K9 Academy, was the best thing that we could have done for our Boxer puppy Moxon! He learned very quickly the basics with the guidance of Duke and Lindsay; and has built an amazing foundation for success as he grows into a full-grown Boxer! We learned how to communicate with him and leadership skills, how to use proper commands, how to kennel train him, which were the proper chew and play toys, and much, much more!

Not only does Duke teach you the basics to succeed, but weekly socialization is the best thing you could do for your puppy! Having the time to run around and play in a controlled environment with a room full of other puppies was fantastic, and very eye opening!

We also had the opportunity to work with Duke one-on-one to concentrate more on Moxon’s “pulling and tugging” on the leash when we walk him. This was extremely important as we are both active and want to run with him often! This extra service was extremely worthwhile, and there was improvement after a one hour session! He has absolutely exceeded our expectations, and I would recommend anyone with a new puppy to contact Duke Ferguson’s Unleashed Potential K9 Academy immediately – don’t wait another day!

RSS The Weekly Recall with Duke Ferguson

  • #39 The Pause Plan for You and Your Dog
    What if the thing triggering you most isn't here to punish you, but to teach you? It's my birthday, 52 years in, 38 of them spent with animals, and the lesson I keep relearning is this: triggers are spotlights. In this episode I get into triggers, trauma, and transformation for you and your dog, and […]
