Hello Friends, Greetings from Georgia
Hope everyone with two legs and 4 legs is doing well. We fall in love with our boy Dan more and more everyday. After his training at your facility his confidence, fears, and overall personality simply came together. He is well balanced, trained, and our obedience goober. Attached is a picture of Dan. Can you just see the confidence in his face and body language? He is really a sweet boy. I can't thank you enough for the help and work you have done for us and our Dan. Sincerely, Donna Toel

Pictured above is "ZOE" a 14 month old Labradoodle that finished her 4-week Basic Obedience training program from Wagner K9 School on March 10, 2007. YOU GO, ZOE!
Billy, Susie, & Charlie,
Zoe is great! Patrick took her in the front yard on Monday on-leash, but no fence. She STAYED and held it for about 15 minutes while he took pictures of our trees in bloom! I've walked her several times, and she has been great with distractions....squirrels, cats, dogs, and people. I make her sit before we cross any street and practice the sit, sit-stay, walk about, and she's GREAT! She received many complements on Sunday when we walked. "What a beautiful dog" we were told or "I really like your dog! etc. Inside the house , she's much more manageable & actually stops when she starts to nip at me when I say ,"OUT, NO"...and that's only occurred a couple of times.. much less than previously.
Thank you so much!
Syble Isbister & Patrick Downs

Without the training Amber received at Wagner K9 School, there would have been no way for me to have kept her. What was a really cute little puppy became a big, strong, active dog very fast. But with the training Amber received she is controlable and knows how to mind. She also knows she has limits and obeys those limits. I also use the Wagner Kennel for boarding as I know Amber will be well taken care of there and not pick up any bad habits.

"Mr. Gumbo" is owned by Leigh Grace & Brian Grainger, Charlotte, NC
I researched several breeds before deciding "to be owned" by a Golden Retriever. Since I'd never had a dog of my own, and I knew retrievers got to be to 75+ pounds, I decided to investigate puppy classes. After I researched a few options, Wagner K9's program was the most impressive. The training Gumbo received at Wagner K9 School has improved my entire experience as a large-breed dog owner. He's well behaved and easy to work with now that he knows the basic commands.
The greatest benefit of this training is that Gumbo has a safe, trusted home- away-from-home when I travel for work. The brush-up sessions Wagner K9 delivers while boarding have kept his skills in top condition. One other additional, huge advantage is that the staff at Wagner K9 pick up and deliver Gumbo for me during my times of travel.

Building Your Dog's Focus is crucial to having a well-behaved dog.
Greg Campbell and his obedience trained Standard Poodle, Joubert
demonstrate that the heel command and exercise is a great way to increase your dog's focus. Put your dog on leash on your left side and walk an imaginary square in your house or in your yard. While you walk in your perfect square make your turns to the left as sharp as they can be. This way you walk into your dog and cut off his attention that might be on anything that is ahead of you. While walking the square to the right you are making sharp turns that deter your dog's attention away from anything that may be distracting your dog to the left or out in front of you. If you use this drill while walking and make your turns sharp and precise, your dog will have to focus on you, the handler. You may also try walking in straight lines and doing a quick about face. These exercises will also enhance the automatic-sit. If this drill is performed correctly you will have your dog heeling and sitting properly in no time. Email me if you have a problem.
