Why on cloud k9?

Online Training Course

People only retain 20-40% of what they are told.   Our in-person training sessions are complemented by an online training course that you have access to for 6 months from the start of the training course.  The online dog training course includes videos of what we did in each training session along with essential information to help you better understand your dog.

Fun

In our dog training courses, we teach the dogs valuable life skills by playing games.  Games are essential for healthy development.  We shape the dogs' brain by playing fun 3 minute games.  Games based concept training teaches your dog valuable life skills, such as impulse control, focus, confidence, optimism, engagement and calmness.

Ethical

We use fun, rewards and praise to teach the dogs great life skills, rather than force, fear or punishment.  There's no need to use something that your dog doesn't like in order to get their compliance, such as kneeing them in the chest to stop them jumping up.  We help you understand how your dog thinks and feels, so that you can feel more empathy for them.

Modern

The dog training world has come a long way in the last 20 years and we now know that dogs learn in the same way as humans do and that they have mental capabilities and emotional intelligence equivalent to a 2.5-year-old child.  We are continually educating ourselves so that we can provide the most up to date training methods based on scientific research.
