Dog Behavioral Center Services

Turn to Us for an Extensive Dog Behavioral Training Program

It has been said that an idle mind is a dangerous thing. People ask K9one LLC @ Stonehill Kennel every day “Why does my dog display this behavior?” “Have I done something?” The answer is usually NO. That is the problem. Every breed of dog that lives today has survived the ages for one reason. They performed some service for men. Hunting dogs hunt, herding dogs protect livestock, working dogs pull carts and protect their master. Because of this, these breeds were selectively bred to continue their jobs. What job does your dog have?

Additionally, during the past 50 years, man has stolen the social environment of dogs. Dogs can no longer interact with other dogs without intervention by owners. Leash laws and tall fences, and now even invisible fences prevent dogs from normal social contact with other canines. This cuts deep into the dog's need for social interaction. All dogs understand the world about their natural pack instincts.

And You Thought Your Dog Had Problems?

So, what happens when we don’t give our companion animals a job or a social environment in which to live? An idle mind is a dangerous thing! Behavioral Problems rear their ugly head. Imagine for a moment that you had a child in your home, and from about 1 year of age, you never allowed that child to see or interact with other children. Then you never allowed the child to go to school. Perhaps you even worked full-time and had to leave the child home alone for most of the daylight hours. Do you think this would be a normal, well-adjusted child that would easily fit into society? I think not. More than likely this child would become a ward of the state correctional institute.

So, what is the answer? professional obedience training. By training your dog in obedience and practicing these exercises in your everyday life, dogs feel useful and know they are contributing to the pack. Many times, clients come to us with a list of behavioral problems that they can no longer tolerate. “This is our last resort, or we will have to get rid of our dog,” they tell us. While training these “problem dogs” we do not need to concentrate on the behavioral problems. Of these behavioral problems, most of them will be resolved once the dog has a purpose in life.

With most that are still experiencing problems; the owners now have obedience control over their dogs. They can stop or reduce problem behavior with the tools they have gained through Professional Dog Obedience Training.

Professional obedience training will resolve many behavioral problems in most dogs. This option provides the most benefits to both the dog and the owner. If you are interested in pursuing this option, please visit our In-Kennel Training page for more information on dog obedience training.

Now if you’re still only interested in changing or fixing one or two problems your dog is displaying, you’re still in luck. Our professional staff for Dog Obedience Training can assist you in resolving or greatly reducing nearly every behavioral problem you can throw at us. We do not shy away from the hard ones. We welcome the challenges of calming an aggressive dog or bringing relief to a companion animal that suffers from separation anxiety.
