This is a video taken at one of K9 Basics demos. You will see two dogs being worked during this video. One of them is a 4 year old named Apache and the other is a 2 year old named Geronimo. What you are about to see is what K9 Basics will do with your dog. Your dog will listen to every command that you give them off leash. It doesn’t matter if you are next to them or 100 yards from them.

Happy Holidays everyone! Yesterday was picture day with Santa at k9 basics dog training. I can’ t wait to see how my picture came out. My mom did not want to be in the picture with me but some of the other trainers sat with their dogs and Santa. Some of my friends even had their entire family in the picture and are going to use the pictures as Christmas cards! Even though we spend lots of time training (me and all the other dogs) there is always something fun in the works at k9 basics. We are also collecting stuff for the shelter pets-so if you can please bring us your donations of dog food, blankets, toys, paper towels or anything else that will make the holidays a little more comfortable for my homeless friends. Thanks! 

Diego dropped Duke off at K9 Basics on Monday. When he first came Duke was afraid of everything and averyone. Duke is coming out of his shell. He still has more commands to learn but I think he is going to pick them up quickly.

Hi, It’s me, Ginger. Santa’s coming! Next week at K9 basics dog training, Santa is coming to take pictures with all of us dogs and our families at our Marlton location. I’ll be on my best behavior when I sit next to Santa for my picture. I’ll let you know how it goes. Have a great week! 

It’s me, Ginger! I’ve been away for awhile while mom was on vacation. I stayed at Clif Wyck Kennels in Marlton and boy did I have a good time. Everyone there was so nice to me! I got to stay in a big comfy kennel with cushy blankets. Plus I got to see all my friends at K9 Basics! Well, gotta go for now-be back here next week to tell you about more of my adventures in dog training.

K9 Basics is not only known for their training they are known for their agility as well. Last weekend November 10th, 11th, and 12th we had an agility weekend. This is footage of pepper…the winner of the weekend !!!

K9 Basics would like to send a special thanks to Sue Barnes the best agility instructor in the world.  Kris it was not the same without you but hey……we BETTER see you next time !!!!! 

We will have more videos up shortly of our fun filled weekend of agility !!!

This video was taken at the 7:00pm group training session. Wilson is being worked by K9 Basics trainer Marissa Corbett, Certified Trainer through “That’s My Dog! E-Cademy”. There are approximately 15 dogs and 20 people in the building while Wilson is being worked. As you can tell from watching the video Wilson is completely oblivious to what is going on around him. All of his attention is on Marissa. I believe that during the video this 6 month old puppy old gets distracted a total of 2 times.  

There is nothing better than being a trainer at K9 Basics.  I get to see the difference in all the dogs from the time they start until the time they graduate.  It’s an awesome thing to watch.  I get so caught up in the clients dogs improvement that I forget sometimes what a long way my own dog has come.  I was at the Halloween party when it all came back to me.  I saw clients that were training their dog when I was just a client at K9 Basics.  They just couldn’t get over how different Chloe was.  I talk about Chloe all the time and how far she has come but to actually sit and think about it….I was out night after night, sometimes 3 times a day.  She had such fear issues it was unbelievable, it was turning into fear aggression.  I can remember the sick feeling I would get in my stomach right before getting to the field.  I knew how Chloe was going to act, all the crying and carrying on.  Slowly but surely she came out of her shell.  It is really amazing what the correct training will do for your dog.  K9 Basics is it.  All it comes down to is the amount of time you are willing to work with your dog.
