Question 1

Can my dog be trained?

Accepted Answer

For many of my clients I am their 3rd or 4th dog trainer and they feel that their dog is pretty much untrainable or they feel hesitant about paying for another dog trainer if its not going to work anyways... 
​
If you feel this way you are definitely not alone. I myself when through many different training styles until I found information that actually helped my dog! 
​
I will never say never, but I have never worked with a dog that was not trainable to some degree. All dogs can be trained it just takes the right training and a lot of effort. 
​
So If you have a question about wither your dog can be helped please go look at some of my before and after videos and you will see that there is hope even for some of the craziest dogs :) (you might even find out that your dog isn't TOO bad)

Question 2

What training tools and techniques do you use?

Accepted Answer

Our answer is... the best ones. We use training techniques that work. We are balanced trainers which means that we incorporate many different techniques to help your dog succeed. Some of the most common things that we use are food training, praise/motivation, ecollar training, prong collar training, flat buckle collar, slip lead, treats, play as a reward or distraction. We really believe in using the training that is going to work the best for your dog which is why we use a variety of different tools. This allows us to teach YES and NO. That way we are able to teach both obedience commands and also stop unwanted behaviors.

Question 3

Where are you located?

Accepted Answer

Our training center is located on a farm in Kaneohe. For our Board and Train programs, we will do all of the appointments at your home so we can see your dog in its normal environment, and help to rewire the way they view your home. One on One Training sessions can take place at your home if it is in Kaneohe, Kailua or Honolulu and has accessible parking.

We also come to Utah every few months to train dogs. If you are located in Utah and are interested please fill out our contact form.(https://www.hokuk9training.com/contact-us)

Question 4

Do you train puppies?

Accepted Answer

While most of our programs are for dogs 6 months of age and up we do train puppies. We are actually working on a puppy training series right now that will help you get your puppy off of the right foot. If you would like free access to this training series please contact us through our "Contact Us" page.

Question 5

Do you give a multi-dog discount?

Accepted Answer

We do not offer a multi-dog discount because it is actually a lot more work for us to train two dogs that come from the same household. We first train them separately and then we train them to do the behaviors together. For example. these dogs were trained to walk separately and then we also trained them to walk together.

Question 6

What post-training assistance do you offer? Is there any continued education for me and my pup?

Accepted Answer

We have a follow up appointment a week after your dog has finished our program so we can make sure they have adjusted well being back home. We also strongly encourage continued updates via text or phone calls to us with any training questions! We strive to give you the skills to work with your dog so you are not reliant on us, but we of course will happily help you if needed!

We also offer boarding to our board and train graduates, which allows us to work on any behaviors we see need correcting.

Space is limited, so we need notice in advance. Please refer to our board and play program for more information.
