WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

“Dion is an outstanding trainer. He took time to listen to my issues, understand my goals, and work with me to create a specific approach towards training my dog. He’s open to many training methodologies and locked in on a strategy that works really well for me and my Belgian Malinois. He’s also friendly, personable, and really enjoyable to hang out with during sessions. My dog and I look forward to our training every week. Would recommend to anyone.”

    Puppy Training

    It’s ideal to begin training a dog when he or she is in the puppy stage. While this stage can be a notoriously challenging time for dog owners, it’s also the perfect time to teach a dog desired behaviors through obedience training classes. Whether you are dealing with typical puppy behaviors that are tearing up your house or you just want to get ahead of the game and avoid that outcome, Ancillary K9 Dog Training Denver would be proud to help. We offer free consultations to discuss your needs and determine how we can help, so don’t hesitate to reach out. There is no obligation beyond your free consultation!

Fortunately, working with the team at Ancillary K9 Dog Training Denver can help to take your dog away from those aggressive tendencies. It’s likely that we’ll need to develop a training plan that will gradually work your dog into a calmer, more controlled state.

    Protection Dog Training

    If you plan to get a dog for security reasons, you’ll need to make sure that the dog is properly trained as a protection dog. There are different types of training required to teach a protection dog how to behave in various situations, so it’s important to work with a professional team that has this particular type of protection dog training experience. Not all dog trainers will be qualified to do this kind of work, so turn to Ancillary K9 as a trusted option in Denver for such an important job.

  • Picking a dog trainer is an important choice. While there are plenty of businesses in the greater Denver area offering general dog training services, but not all of them have the experience or knowledge necessary to deliver great results. It’s worth spending some time researching your options before you commit to one of the top dog trainers in the region.

    When picking the dog trainer in Denver that you will work with, be sure to keep in mind the specific needs of your dog. Why are you looking into training services in the first place? If you are hoping for one specific outcome – like developing a German Shepherd into a protection dog, for example – you will have to work with a trainer that knows that breed of dog training intimately. Don’t expect that a trainer who specializes in one area, like puppy training, will be able to carry those skills over to all other areas. At Ancillary K9, we have extensive experience with standard and large breeds like the Rottweiler, Belgian Malinois, German Shepherd, and Cane Corso, but not all dog trainers in Denver do.

    Without a doubt, the best way to pick out the right dog trainer for you and your dog is to reach out and discuss your needs directly with the trainer. This kind of open communication will ensure that everyone is on the same page before any appointments are made and training sessions begin. It’s better to work out the details in advance than to begin training before you realize that it’s not a good fit.

  • Any dog from a Pitt Bull to a Belgian Malnois could benefit from our training programs, from puppies who need obedience training to adult dogs who exhibit naughty behavior. It’s easy to see the need to contact a Denver dog behaviorist when a dog is being aggressive and creating a dangerous situation, but that’s far from the only reason to work with our experienced trainers. Sometimes, a dog owner wants nothing out of training other than slightly improved behavior and the ability to follow a few basic commands.

    The need for behavioral training isn’t likely to have much to do with the breed of the dog. Sure, some breeds like the German Shepherd, Belgian Malinois, and Rottweiler are often more likely to demonstrate aggressive behavior than others, and some are more energetic than others, but all types of dogs can benefit from the right type of training provided by the right trainers. To put it simply – if a dog owner would like to see their dog learn a new skill or eliminate bad behavior, professional training is the answer.

  • While many conventional trainers use an indoor training facility or do in-home dog training, we hold all of our private training sessions at a quiet park in the Cherry Creek neighborhood of Denver.

    Training outdoors provides many benefits over in home training or a board and train program. From our extensive experience, we get faster, longer-lasting results when the owner is part of the process and training is conducted in a more natural environment.

    Though the majority of the dogs we train are from Denver, we have clients from the surrounding areas like Wheat Ridge, Golden, Highlands Ranch, and Aurora, Colorado. We’ve also had clients from as far as Vail, Aspen, and Steamboat Springs. Now that’s dedication!
