Kennel Training
Dogs are naturally den animals and most enjoy being in small, enclosed places. A crate can provide dogs with a feeling of security, and when trained to use them from an early age, crates can help calm anxiety.
Leash Pulling
Dogs don’t just innately know how to walk politely on a leash, this is something that needs to be trained. It’s an important skill to teach, and one you’ll value every time you take your dog out for a walk.
Ignoring Commands
It can take hundreds or even thousands of repetitions for some dogs to learn a new skill. Practice makes perfect. We focus on training that ensures your dog really has it down.
Human Aggression
Effectively managing your dog is crucial, and hiring a qualified, humane trainer will go a long way in helping to modify the behavior.

How old must my puppy be to begin training?
We have found that training is most effective when a puppy has had a little time to mature as well as ample time to bond with their new family. This consideration takes care of itself in private in-home training. Listed below is the earliest age for a pup to start each of these packages:
- Star Puppy 12 weeks
- Basic Obedience 5 months
- Advanced Obedience 7 months
- Personal Protection (age varies)
Will I get updates while my dog is away?
Yes! La Fundación K-9 Academy's trainers are expert communicators and pride themselves on keeping you in the loop! Expect to receive regular video and picture updates, at most every 4 days along the way!
