Introduction: At K9 Social Club your pet lives with us in our home during the board and train program. I have not only traind individuals dogs since 1980 but have trained and competed with my dogs on a local and National level in many dog sports. A few of the dog sports I have been involved in are obedience, agility, Frisbee disc dogs,dock diving,herding,tracking and Schutzhund. Because of competing in a variety of dog sports I truly understand a dogs temperament and how that can affect the learning process. I attend seminars on a regular basis so as to stay up with the newest training technics. I have been training and grooming dogs since 1980. We have experience with all breeds of dogs. I develop a training program to fit your expectations with your specific pet. We use positive reinforcement to begin training with each pet. Your pet is kept in my home so that it learns what it's job is in real life situations. Most problems with pets is a lack of communication. We help you to understand your pet and your pet to understand you. K9 Social Club was started in 2000. Give us a call for questions and a free consult.

Vickie was a pleasure to speak with. She has a fantastic plan on how to train dogs and I enjoyed the time she took to explain her training process as well as the personalized touch she adds by training in her home with a small ratio. I will definitely look forward to working with her in the future.

Vickie provided constructive criticism without judgment and offered clear instructions on how to improve the situation for my dog along with an explanation on why it would work. Huge improvement! The best experience I have had in seeking help.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing for training is according to what type of training and the time involved. I offer a Board and Train program that starts at $1200 for a three week program. I also do in home training and the price starts at $150 for the first visit and $125 each visit afterwards.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I believe communication is of up most importance. The first thing I do is discuss the customers needs. If it is dog training I do a consult and discuss your pets habits and temperament and design a plan that will meet your expectations. With grooming I discuss in length what you want done with your pet.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been training and grooming dogs are since 1980. I have owned my own businesses during most of those years. I attend seminars on a regular basis to further my education.
