Behavior consultationProgram details
Behavior modification dog training is a type of positive reinforcement-based training that uses rewards to teach dogs new behaviors in order to promote good behavior. Dogs learn better when they are rewarded for correct actions, and this technique has been proven effective.

I cannot say enough good things about K9Aholics!!! My son rescued an adult male German Shepard a couple years ago. Maverick was reactive to new people, dogs, cats, the wind blowing…
Since I often dog sit and have cats, grandkids and no fenced in yard, my time with Maverick could be overwhelming.
Enter K9Aholics…..Maverick underwent their in-house training/boarding. I was sent videos and report of his progress.
Maverick is at my home (in Michigan) now and will be for a month. WOW!!! He’s a new, more confident boy. He listens. He is less fearful and therefore less reactive. Our walks are fun and less stressful. He just wishes my cats would play with him….could take longer though since he previously tried to eat (haha) them.
I highly recommend the trainers/staff at K9Aholics - they’ve helped Maverick (and therefore our family) more than they’ll ever know!! ❤️

We are so grateful for K9Aholics !. Over the course of a month they made great progress on Edamame's listening ear and his response to commands. He's still the big ball of fun we all love him for, but now is able to follow commands when we need him to.

K9Aholics really helped settle our 9 month old Lily. She would constantly jump and pull when meeting new people and dogs but since training she has been great on the leash and also stayed in her place when guests came over. Our dog is sassy and does what she wants sometimes so it’s great the team offers follow-up classes and sessions to help reiterate commands once you take your baby home. I absolutely recommend this team with your dog training needs.
