About this trainer

Alpha K9 offers leadership-based obedience training, behavior modification, and accelerated training with guaranteed results in just two weeks. Specializing in anxiety, fear, and aggression, the program also addresses desensitization and conditioning to stimuli.

Certifications are available, and the training equipment does not involve the use of treats, as this method can lead to manipulative behaviors in dogs. Instead, the approach is rooted in leadership principles based on mutual respect and trust.

The training philosophy at Alpha K9 is centered around alpha leadership methods that foster trust and respect, creating a lifetime partnership with the dogs. The focus is on preventing problem behaviors before they arise and correcting current behavioral issues in a balanced, natural, and humane manner.

Alpha K9 serves various locations, offering phone and internet consultations worldwide. In Virginia, USA, the services cover Roanoke, Montgomery, Botetourt, Bedford, Franklin, Pulaski, Pittsylvania, Rockbridge counties, and the New River Valley area. Additionally, day trips are available in the tri-state area of Virginia, West Virginia, and North Carolina, with mileage fees applicable.

The specialization lies in behavior modification and training for anxiety, aggression, and fear issues. The training approach emphasizes alpha leadership methods, which are balanced, natural, and humane, teaching mutual trust and respect through the dog’s natural method of communication. The result is a reliably trained and well-mannered family pet.

Alpha K9 offers private sessions, house calls, and a two-week accelerated program with guaranteed results. The program has been dedicated to training well-mannered family pets and solving behavioral problems since 1981, and comes highly recommended by veterinarians and clients alike. Join Alpha K9 for the relationship of a lifetime.
