Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
What is a Board & Train program?
A Board & Train program is an immersive, hands-on dog training experience where your dog stays with professional trainers for several weeks. At The K9 Blueprint, our programs focus on real-world behavior, obedience, and confidence-building. Dogs learn calm, respectful manners, off-leash reliability, and structure, while owners receive a comprehensive plan to maintain training at home. Board & Train is ideal for busy owners, puppies, or dogs with behavior challenges who need intensive guidance.

How do I stop my dog from barking excessively?
To stop excessive barking, start by identifying the cause, whether it's boredom, anxiety, or a response to external stimuli. Once you understand why your dog is barking, you can address the root cause. Here are some strategies: - Exercise and Mental Stimulation: Ensure your dog gets enough physical exercise and mental stimulation through play, training, and puzzle toys. - Training and Commands: Teach your dog the "quiet" command. When your dog starts barking, say "quiet" calmly and firmly. When they stop barking, reward them with a treat and praise. - Desensitization: Gradually expose your dog to the stimulus that causes them to bark, in a controlled manner, and reward them for staying calm. - Distraction and Redirection: Distract your dog with a toy or treat when they start barking and redirect their focus to something positive.

Hannah is the absolute best dog trainer! She is always available when you have any questions or need help. My dog is better behaved and much more confident than before we went to Hannah, and she continues to check in and make sure my dog is doing good. I can’t recommend this company enough, it is definitely worth it!
Hannah is awesome. Exceeded expectations My dog Rambo was transformed from unmanageable to being my buddy. Highly recommended!
We took our older pups to K9 Blueprint and Hannah to help us as we had to make a move to a smaller home (without a back yard). Hannah helped us to better control their aggressive instincts against other dogs and we’re able to take them on walks much more comfortably. Thank-you K9 Blueprint
Hannah is terrific. Our dog Oreo was with her for 2 weeks and learned many commands. I recommend her to train your fur baby.
