Some OLK9 Love

I am fostering a Shar-Pei mix that came to me without any training and was being rehomed due to an issue with a child in the home. Once in my home and after decompressing, she showed tendencies of resource guarding and I was forced to keep her separated from my pack of 3 dogs and 5 cats. Because of the breed dynamic, I realized in order to find her fur-ever home, she needed lots of training and I needed to get past the breed stubbornness trait, so I contacted OLK9 of Sarasota to discuss.

Our trainers were both very professional. The level of care he has taken to make sure Rosie is not overtaxed during training, and to train me to train her without undo stress to her has been outstanding. Rosie is like a new animal, and she went from never listening to sitting at my side without being asked, coming when called and excited to go for a walk, versus pulling back on the leash, digging her paws into the ground, sitting or laying – and in general, a royal pain in the butt!

We are 3 weeks into our 8 week training, and I am so excited about the level of difference my trainer has helped me make in Rosie’s life already. It can only get better from here! I highly recommend them to anyone with an out of control, stubborn dog.
