Personal Dog Training
Positive reinforcement is the foundation of what we use to build the human-dog bond.
Through positive training the owner and pet relationship is built on trust and the owners
respect for the animal’s decision-making capabilities. This relationship is not based on
one dominating the other; it is a partnership between human and animal. We work side
by side with you to show you how to train your dog desired behaviors and eliminate or
manage unwanted behaviors in a humane way.

Most training programs are available to pay as you go. We also offer discounted
packages when paid up front.  Free phone consult for up to 30 minutes is available.
Sessions are available in discount packages of 8 to 10 weeks, depending on the service
needed.
Please contact us for training fees, packages, etc.

Your dog runs safely by our side. We give your dog   
several breaks to sniff, drink water and take care of
business.  
Please note: First dog bike run session/s will require
training your dog to run beside the bicycle if your dog
does not already know how to do this. For safety
purposes, only one dog per session on bike runs. Dog
must be 18 months or older and in a good physical
condition. Exercise should be avoided 1hr before and
after eating.
New Puppy Training
Puppies are not born with manners and thus you need to
train your puppy when he is very young. Providing
training to your puppy during the first stages in his life
are crucial in order to have a well behaved and socialized
dog.
V's Cloud 9 K-9 LLC provides you with the information
and coaching you need for your puppy. Training
includes house-training, socialization, crate training,
foundation behaviors, bite inhibition, desensitizing to
handling/grooming, diet and safety tips to keep your
puppy safe.   
Nose Work & Diabetic Alert Training
Dogs have an amazing sense of smell and a natural
desire to hunt.  Nose Work is designed to develop
your dog’s natural scenting abilities by using their
desire to hunt and their love of toys, food and
exercise.  It’s a great way for your dog to have
fun, build confidence, and burn lots of mental and
physical energy.
Diabetic Alert Dogs
