MLK9 Dog Training

At MLK9 Dog Training, we start by teaching parents how to communicate with their pets using clear commands and rewarding good behavior. After establishing a solid foundation of obedience commands, we move on to more advanced skills such as off-leash control, loose leash walking, and other behaviors like jumping up or biting. Our training methods are based on the science of learning theory and modern, humane dog training techniques. We use positive reinforcement as our primary method of increasing your dog’s motivation to learn and to behave in a way that you like better than before. We also use “reward-based punishment,” which means that if your dog does something wrong that you don’t want him to do, you don’t punish him — instead, you simply remove the reward for a short period until he learns not to do it anymore.
