DOG TRAINING
At Captain K9, we believe effective dog training is built on clear communication, proper structure, and a strong relationship between dogs and their owners. Our programs are designed to help dogs develop better decision-making, reliable obedience, and confidence in real-world environments — from puppy foundations to advanced behavioural rehabilitation.
Puppy Classes
Designed for first-time puppy owners, our Puppy Kindergarten program focuses on building strong foundations through proper communication, structure, socialization, and confidence-building exercises. We help owners better understand their puppies while addressing common behaviours such as biting, barking, jumping, and leash manners in a supportive training environment.
Obedience Training
Designed for growing puppies and their owners, our Puppy Obedience & Handling program focuses on improving communication, engagement, and foundational obedience skills through structured exercises and proper handling techniques. This program helps build better focus, leash communication, confidence, and a stronger relationship between owners and their dogs.
Behaviour Rehabilitation
Our Advanced Behaviour Rehabilitation program focuses on more complex behavioural challenges such as reactivity, aggression, excessive barking, chasing, separation anxiety, and unreliable recall. Through structured training and improved communication, we help owners better understand their dogs while building safer, calmer, and more reliable behaviour in real-world environments.
Board & Train
Our Board & Train program is designed for owners who want to continue their dog’s training while away or establish stronger behavioural foundations through immersive, structured training. During their stay, dogs receive focused guidance, daily training exercises, and personalized support tailored to their individual needs and goals.
In-House Training
Our In-Home Training program is designed to address behavioural challenges that occur specifically within the home environment, such as resource guarding, territorial behaviour, or conflicts between dogs living together. By working directly in your dog’s familiar surroundings, we help create clearer communication, better structure, and more practical real-world solutions for everyday life.
Unlimited Training Program
Our Unlimited Training Programs are designed for owners seeking long-term guidance, continued support, and consistent progress throughout every stage of their dog’s development. From puppy foundations and obedience training to behavioural rehabilitation and ongoing coaching, these programs provide flexible access to training and support tailored to your dog’s evolving needs over time.
Train With Kevin
Train directly with Captain K9 head coach Kevin Wu, who brings over 20 years of experience working with both pet and working dogs. From puppy foundations and advanced obedience to behavioural rehabilitation, protection work, trainer development, and business consulting, Kevin provides personalized guidance designed to help both dogs and owners achieve long-term success through clear communication, structure, and proven training methods.
