Fortunate K9 Dog and Owner Training

FK9’s incredible training program became the foundation of a relationship with my yellow Lab, Molly, who is now all most 13, that I never thought possible. I only had one dog in my life prior to Molly, and I’m sad to say that I had not done any formal training with her and had no idea what I was missing. Julia’s training during private lessons, followed by many FK9 drop-in classes over the years, have made such a positive impact on my life and Molly’s, that I can’t thank them enough. We spent hours working together and forming a close bond, we competed in Rally, and have done some therapy work. My daughter brought her puppy to FK9 six years ago, and as of today, has another new puppy who will be starting FK9 classes soon. Thank you Julia, Rick, Tom, and Jen for making such a difference to so many families and their dogs.

This is training saved our dogs life. We have 2 dogs and one was reactive towards strangers. With the help of our trainer Jen, our dog is now looking to us and not reacting. This training has improved our relationships with our dogs and we can’t wait to continue learning. Thank you! We enjoy the drop in classes on Sunday with Tom as well. It shows our dogs that they can trust us and provides them with a boost of much needed confidence. Thank you fournate k9, we would recommend you to anyone with a dog.

I can't say enough about the professionalism and caring of the trainers at Fortunate K9. I brought my first dog Atticus, a reactive, anxious doberman, to FK9 about 9 years ago. He boarded & trained with Julia for 3 weeks and when we picked him up I couldn't believe the transformation. Fast forward to earlier this year, Atticus lived a happy life but unfortunately passed 2 years ago. I know have 3 dogs, all rescues and of course I brought them to Fortunate K9 for training. I had the pleasure of working with Jen in the 6 week puppy training class. She was professional, and educated us not only in training technique but also dog behavior helping us to understand our new puppies. It turned out my puppy was dog reactive and with Jen's help I was able to get that under control immediately and it's no longer a problem. As for my other 2 dogs, they too have been to training with FK9 and will continue with their drop in classes. I highly recommend you bring your puppy or adult dog to FK9. They understand dogs and their no nonsense approach to training is effective and respectful of the dogs which in turn gives you a dog who respects you.
