False advertising, don’t waste your money on this app
I, like many people who wrote reviews, purchased this after being sent a video from the company. In the video and marketing for this app the company states that it works on aggression in dogs. I had asked because I’ve already done basic training with my 2 dogs. So I purchased the program for $297. This company is doing false advertising. The entire program is basic training. Sit, stay, watch etc. when I email the company about where the other content was I was told that it is addressed in 2 places. It is very very briefly. Don’t waste your hard earned money on this app. The app states that you can get help on issues that aren’t covered in the program. When I emailed asking for help in these other areas. I got no help at all. Just told that they wouldn’t refund me. Even though this app doesn’t cover the situations I purchased it to handle. I don’t know about most people but $297 is a lot of money. Especially when I had to hire a different trainer to handle the issues that this app was supposed to handle. Don’t believe the snake oil they are selling.

I find great value in this course…
I find great value in this course though experienced. Most significant breakthrough for my very challenging once Farrell dog.to. I am not without great trainer, force free service dog trainer with 12 years experience, nor w/o experience of my own. I have owned 8 dogs.I walk a small group of 12 dogs that I have walked since they were puppies in most cases and I have fostered/rehomed 17 dogs. My dog, a purebred but a rescue Was a very shut down.The course is legitimate. I have tried many sources of information and they’re just too longwinded to get to the procedures recommended or too dominance oriented. Service trained dogs get euthanized considerably less than dominance trained dogs. It certainly does not work as quick as dominance training, in the long run, you will thank yourself, And your dog will thank you, for not going to dominance road.

Excellent program
I ordered the Masterclass dog training. I was very impressed with the program but found I couldn’t put in the time to really use it. It is very detailed and thorough. Customer service and communication was excellent. I asked for a refund and received it without any problem.

Strong forceful marketing and what…
Strong forceful marketing and what appears to be a time limited great deal is actually an ongoing deal to get you to buy the package.

Test run of the 3 rules before enrolling
I chose to rate K9ti at a 3 for now. I haven’t enrolled yet but I’m intrigued and hopeful. Here’s my plan of action: First, I’m going to try out the 3 core rules and if I feel good about the outcome I will consider enrolling. Just wish I had more than 24 hours to do this test run before I lose out on the huge discount. I’m really excited to see how my Belgian Malinois does for me. Wish me luck ;) I hope to change my rating to a 5!!
What a wonderful program for my dog AND me. This has been a game changer. Also my dog was very receptive and loved doing the program.

Put off by their marketing technique…
I can’t comment on the quality of their courses but I was put off joining them by their ‘strong arm’ marketing technique of offering me a time limited discount followed by urgent. reminders.

Watched Sample training.
Gave me some new things to think about in training my dog, especially relating to the service dog techniques.
Even though we were unable to participate in the workshop due to financial restraints, Dr A personally responded to pur post with a free e-book and emailed us tips! We are thankful for the help.
I thought the suggestions in the free video made common sense.

K9 is spot on
In any relationship the must be trust. Time and again the guidance and recommendations we receive from K9 has proven we can trust them.
Our ALICE has developed a jealous aggressive streak, that we have had to go back to some basics for her development.
K9 provided those answers for us.
The information I have received in the workshop and emails had really helped me to understand my dog in a much better way. I now know what to do to stop some of the undesirable behaviors in a way that builds trust with my dog.

The free workshop is amazing
The free workshop is amazing. It’s just the technique we needed for our Xolo dog. With just a few simple steps she is responding in a much more positive manner and we couldn’t be happier. We definitely plan on purchasing the Masterclass!
Although I’ve had many dogs, I am finding your help very useful and I think it’s nice that you offer the free training and ideas to begin with and get people started with their new pet!

Watch/Touch
Watch: Eye contact is good. She sits and listens for a bit.
She’s a very touchy feeling pup!
