Our Philosophy

Divine K-9's philosophy & technique utilizes scientific principles based on learning theory to better communicate what is requested of the dog. Understanding develops during the training process, strengthening the relationship between human and canine. This allows the owner to gain control of the household as well as begin to feel the joy in having a dog as part of his or her life.

Statistics show that the majority of owners who send their dogs to shelters do so because of undesirable behavior. This is often the result of a communication breakdown that leaves both human and canine frustrated and confused. By using body language and verbal cues, supported by reward-based techniques, we help owners and canines overcome communication barriers for a truly divine relationship.

Dominance vs. Leadership

Divine K-9 offers a variety of methods to help the human be a good leader instead of using intimidation techniques to gain a dominant status over the dog. Divine K-9's philosophy and technique create a place of mutual respect, trust, and appreciation between human and canine.

Timing is key. Pet owners must praise good behavior instead of taking it for granted. It's easy to forget to praise good behavior because it goes unnoticed while misbehavior gets our attention. Praise and reward are the most important part of maintaining good behavior and preventing problems.
