Welcome to K-9 Perfection, LLC | Dog and Puppy Obedience Training, Manitowoc, Door County WI1. Keep Training:
Owners often think that once a dog is trained, there is no need to carry on. Your dog never stops learning. Training should be reinforced throughout you dog’s life.
2. Exercise Your Dog:
All dogs need exercise. The more exercise they get, the happier and better they feel.
3. Be a Confident Leader:
To feel secure, all dogs need a calm, confident leader. It isn’t about dominating your dog or making him submissive towards you. Build his confidence by encouraging and rewarding good behavior.
4. Improve Your Dog’s Diet:
You are what you eat, and the same is true for your dog. Problems can occur with a poor diet. Make sure your dog has a good diet.
5. Dog Care:
Don’t forget your dog’s yearly checkup with your veterinarian. Also check into having your dog microchipped for identification in case of loss.
6. Keep Playing:
Play is a great stress reliever for both you and your dog.
7. Have Fun:
Enjoy your dog! If you take the time to train him right, you will give him what he needs to live a successful, happy life in our humane world.
Can you train a 3yr husky?
Yes, you most certainly can. Sometimes it might just take a little longer. Remember patience is important. You are probably changing a bad habit, or something the dog has done for awhile. Positive reinforcement, treats and praise can help get rid of a bad habit and give you the behavior you want.
Hi Mary. My friend Rose Koeppel wanted me to contact you to evaluate this dog I acquired Sunday July 12. She believe we are a good match for each other. I would like to teach it how to get me off of a chair or fall. Goodness Charlie is about 100 lbs he should be able to excel at something.
3 yrs old
White lab
Neutered Male.
Had very little socialization. Was brought up with several little dogs..
I would very much like to talk to you more about this. I need more information. Please email me at mary@k9perfection.net or call 920-682-1185.
Any experience with herding dogs (aussie) and nipping behaviors?
Yes, I have a lot of experience with herding dogs. I have quite a few, Border, Aussies and Blue Heelers that come to classes and five of my own. My dogs are Border Collies or Border Collie mixes. Never allow the allow the nipping behavior, not even during play time. If it is your hands, arms, legs or pants always say no bite, or no teeth along with an “Ouch!” If it is at play time, playing stops and you walk away. You must be consistent.
can you train my pitbull mix shes 2 and nipps
The first thing we need to do is set a consult/evaluation. I will need to get more information from you and meet your dog.

I just rescued a 1 year old american bully that nips during play, I’ve been teaching my kids to say “No Bite” but she don’t seem to listen to them and she likes to jump up and I tell my kids to turn away to teach her that’s not ok. I’m wandering if you can help?

It sounds like your son’s dog needs some training. You can do this in group classes or private sessions.. It sounds like he needs to learn the rules and the boundaries. Please email me at mary@k9perfection.net if you would like to set something up.
