All Phase K9 Training Center

We took our 9 month old Brittany for the two week training in March. Laurel was great! He has come back as a more relaxed pup who listens better and isn’t jumping all over people. She answered our questions, taught us the proper way to train him at home using the E collar. Even used it on her arm to show us it doesn’t hurt him. When he and I went back for training sessions (mostly for me 🙂) he was very excited to see her. We will use her services again in the future.

Probably one of the most disheartening things I have ever heard was when calling about training, that my pit bull/ lab mix dog was destined for "aggression" due to being part pit. This is, without meeting my dog and knowing the full circumstances. I called about training because my dog showed signs of being uncomfortable and nervous around other dogs, resulting in her sometimes growling and snapping if another dog got to close to her. She's become a little protective over me especially. I was hoping some obedience training could help with her socialization and confidence around other dogs and be more obedient to where she can focus on me than other dogs. I was treated as if that was the worst idea possible because as the front desk worker said on the phone, "dogs can only be socialized as a puppy," which is completely false. It might be harder to socialize an adult dog, but never impossible. I would certainly not recommend dog training here if you have an "aggressive" dog breed or even just an adult dog because clearly they won't be treated with respect or compassion. Just seen as creatures born for harm or impossible to train. If anything, though, I do have to thank them because I am now more than ever committed to training her myself and proving that a pit bull is not a cruel breed and that old dogs can learn new tricks.

How can you call yourself a dog trainer when you told my friend to surrender her dog because she’s reactive. I thought that’s what dog trainers are for? I guess not. Or oh she’s part pit-bull she’s genetically aggressive, but you literally train german shepards who are also “genetically” aggressive. I do not recommend taking your dog here since clearly they don’t know what their doing! They were very disrespectful to my friend and not helpful at all!
