Private Lessons

1-Hour • One-on-One • Personalized Training

Our private lessons offer a personalized, hands-on approach to training that's tailored to your dog's unique needs and your specific goals.

The Handler Starter Pack $600

4 One-Hour Private Lessons

Our Handler training pack is where we start. These four sessions are designed to build your foundation as a handler - teaching you how to communicate clearly, guide your dog effectively, and create structure that leads to real, lasting results.

Rather than just training your dog, we focus on training you- so you can have the tools and confidence to continue progressing long after your sessions.

Ongoing Lessons $150

Single One-Hour Private Lesson

Once you've completed your Handler Training Pack, you'll have the option to continue with pay-as-you-go private lessons. Perfect for continued progression, troubleshooting new challenges, advanced obedience, and real-world practice & proofing. This gives you the flexibility to continue training as needed while still receiving professional guidance along the way.

Training Consultation & Evaluation $150

Our in-person consultation and evaluation is the first step in understanding your dog's needs and your training goals. During this session, we assess your dog's behavior, temperament, and current skill level while discussing any challenges you're experiencing.

This option is ideal for owners who are unsure of exactly what their dog needs or would like professional guidance in choosing the best training program for the issues presented. From there, we provide clear recommendations and customized plan, so you can move forward with confidence.

Board and Train Programs

Immersive • Results-Driven • Real-World Reliability

Our Board & Train programs are designed for dogs of all ages looking to build or refine obedience, improve behavior, and achieve real-world results. Through a structured, immersive training environment, your dog receives multiple daily training sessions, clear communication, and consistent guidance from our professional trainers.

Whether your goals include foundational obedience, behavior modification, or advanced off--leash reliability, each program is customized to meet your dog where they are and help them progress with confidence.

At the end of the program, we provide a comprehensive handler transfer session to ensure you feel confident maintaining your dog's training, along with ongoing support as you transition your dog back into your daily routine.

Best for adolescent and adult dogs, or puppies ready for more advanced training

3-Week Foundation Program $2700

Clarity • Structure • Communication

5-Week Real-World Program $4300

Our 3-week Foundation Program is designed to establish the core skills every dog needs to succeed. This program focuses on creating clear communication between you and your dog while introducing structure, boundaries, and engagement.

Through consistent, daily training sessions, your dog will learn foundational obedience commands such as sit, down, place, and recall, along with proper leash handling and improved impulse control. We also introduce a clear marker system to help your dog better understand expectations and build confidence in their learning process.

This program is ideal for dogs who need a strong starting point or a reset in structure and communication

Functional • Practical • Lifestyle Training

Our 5-week Real World Program builds on the foundation and begins applying your dog's training in more dynamic, real-life environments. The goal is to create a dog that not only listens at home but can remain responsive and well-mannered in the presence of distractions.

As your dog progresses, we focus on improving leash manners, increasing duration and reliability of commands, and introducing public outings to practice obedience in new environments. Your dog will learn to navigate everyday situations with greater confidence, neutrality, and control.

This program is perfect for owners who want a well-behaved dog they can confidently take out into the real world

8-Week Advanced Obedience Program $6700

Reliable • Responsive • Real-World Control

Our 8-week Advanced Obedience Program is our most comprehensive on-leash training option, designed to create a highly reliable and well-mannered dog in a wide range of environments. This program focuses on refining obedience to a high level of consistency, even in more challenging and distracting settings.

We build on all previous training by increasing expectations around duration, distance, and distraction, while continuing to reinforce strong leash manners and handler engagement. Dogs in the program are exposed to more complex real-world scenarios, helping them develop the ability to remain calm, responsive, and controlled in busy environments.

This program is ideal for owners who want a polished, dependable dog they can confidently take anywhere on leash

6-Week E-Collar Program $5500

Advanced Communication • Reliable Freedom • Off-Leash Control

Our 6-week E-Collar Integration Program is our only off-leash training program, designed to create clear communication, improved responsiveness, and reliable off-leash control.

This program begins with the same strong foundation as our 3-week obedience program, where we establish clear communication, structure, and on-leash obedience. From there, we transition into properly introducing and conditioning your dog to the e-collar in a fair, structured, and effective way.

Over the following weeks, we use the e-collar to reinforce known behaviors, improve accountability, and build consistency- allowing your dog to respond reliably even in more distracting, real-world environments.

Best for owners who are looking for off-leash reliability, improved communication, and the ability to confidently take their dog into real-world settings with a higher level of trust and control

Why E-Collar Training?

E-collar training is designed for dog owners who want more than just basic obedience - they want reliability, freedom, and real-world control. Some dogs don't lack obedience- they lack consistency under distraction.

If you've ever felt limited by a leash, frustration by inconsistent recall, or unsure how your dog will respond in distracting environments, e-collar training may be the next step. E-collar training helps bridge the gap by reinforcing known behaviors in a way your dog can clearly understand, even in stimulating environments.

Reinforcing potty and crate training routines

Leash introduction & loose leash walking

Place command with increased duration

6-Week Puppy Reliability Program $6500

What We Focus On:

Increasing obedience with duration, distance, and distractions

Public exposure and real-world training

Polished leash manners

Strong recall foundation

Advanced impulse control and decision-making

Confidence in new environments

The Result: A calm, confident, and well-mannered young dog who is prepared for real-life situations and ready to transition into advanced training.

A Note on Age & Readiness

Every puppy develops differently. These age ranges are guidelines, and we're happy to evaluate your dog to ensure placement in the program that best fits their current stage and your goals. As your puppy progresses, they can seamlessly transition into our adult programs.

The earlier you create structure and clarity, the easier it is to raise a well-behaved, confident dog.

Client Exclusive Boarding

Boarding for Dogs We Know-and Trust

At Drk9 Services, our boarding program is reserved exclusively for dogs who have completed one of our training programs. Why? Because structure matters.

By working only with dogs who understand our system, we're able to maintain a calm, controlled environment where expectations stay consistent-even while you're away. Your dog won't just be "watched" - they'll continue to practice the same structure, routines, and behaviors they've already learned because they've worked hard to learn and we believe they deserve a place that reinforces it.
