Foundation K9 NWI

Love Foundation K9. Very accommodating. Sharon and Jim are fantastic. Started my German Shepherd Gunner training in the jump start puppy coarse at 10 weeks old. Jim was training him within few minutes of arriving. The facilities are second to none. If you are located near northwest In. This is the place to take your k9. Returned at 6 months to get trained for off leash training. That is you and the dog gets trained. Best thing I ever done. I can take my dog anywhere. Complimented always on how well behaved he is.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Foundation K9. The trainers are not only experienced but also compassionate to each dog's needs. The staff was easy to work with and accommodating to our needs. I especially love that they sent us home with simple tools to help our dog, Bella, be successful at home because that is our goal. Highly recommend Jim and his staff. Update: Bella spent another 2 weeks for boarding and training and at just over 1 year old, she listens very well and obeys commands. It is a pleasure to have a mindful, well-socialized dog. Thanks again, Foundation K9!

Our 106lb dog is full of energy. We did our best for more than 6 months to train him. Read the books. Watched the shows. We still failed to create a calm and confident companion. Then… we got introduced to Foundation K9 through a friend, took the plunge, and enrolled him in the one month residency program. What a Perfect Choice! Jim returned a perfect companion. It’s almost as if they magically changed his temperament. He’s still the fun loving energetic dog we loved, but now… he’s exactly the dog we wanted. Words cannot express the gratitude we have for the FoundationK9 team. Thank you so much for making one of our dreams come true… a perfect dog for our family. Worth every penny.

I cannot recommend Foundation K9 Dog Trainer enough. Our Bernese Mountain Dog Watson is a sweetheart, for sure, but his large size coupled with his high energy and independent spirit was becoming a challenge for us. Enter Jim and his dedicated team. From the outset, it was clear that Jim possesses a deep understanding of dog behavior and psychology. His calm, confident, and structured approach was exactly what Watson (and we) needed. Our concerns were patiently listened to, and a personalized training plan was put into action. Within a few weeks, we began noticing changes in Watson's behavior. The mind of his own, which often manifested in a somewhat unruly demeanor, was now showing signs of discipline and respect for commands. Jim worked extensively with Watson and us, ensuring we were able to translate his techniques into our daily routines. What truly stands out about Foundation K9 is their dedication to ensuring that the training is not just about the dog, but also about educating us, the pet parents. They have equipped us with the skills to effectively communicate with Watson, transforming our relationship with him. Our walks are now more enjoyable experiences rather than chaotic expeditions. Watson now understands and obeys commands, making him a delight to be around - both at home and when we're out and about. His energy is still there, it's just channeled in a more productive and less disruptive manner. Jim's training has certainly made our Watson far more manageable and thus more enjoyable to live with. We have found a sense of calm we didn't think was possible with such a spirited, large breed dog. So, to anyone in need of top-notch dog training services, look no further than Foundation K9 Dog Trainer. It's the best decision we've made for Watson and us. Thanks again to Jim and the entire team - you've truly made a difference!
