Dog Training

At Bolshoy K9 Academy, our training is conducted in a small group environment (max 12) with dogs on leashes at all times and owners at a minimum of 10 feet apart, without the use of treats. Classes are conducted once a week in an open outdoor facility.

Kindness and Patience have proven the best results.

Before this consultation, write down any questions and things that you feel will be important for your consultation. Also, as your dog trainer, I will ask you to discuss with your family what your “dream dog” does and how it behaves.
