Tip Top K9 West Jordan Dog Training

Let me tell you… these guys are AMAZING! We have a 10 month old Samoyed male who just loves to play play play and doesn’t have an off switch. Even outside when constantly pulling, doing his own thing, and trying to play with all the kids outside. He is loved by all which is amazing but hard to control when everyone always wants to come up to him… ESPECIALLY KIDS! He does so good with kids but just wants to sprint with them and run around them and jump and that was an issue we had everyday when we would take him on walks. We sent him off to doggy boot camp and it was a completely different dog! He can now place! Which we use a lot outside and inside and he has an off switch! His recalls are on point and with him being still a puppy he has some slip ups but over time he will overcome those! He can now walk without a leash and sticks right next to us! My favorite part is that we can take him to a park and get him to run around and do whatever he wants to do and not have to worry about him listening to us! He’s such a different dog and we can finally let him roam free of his kennel without any worries inside and outside! 100% recommend and they have earned a lifetime customer!

I heard that sending away a dog to be trained is not super effective, because they forget everything, and revert back to their old ways after they get home. When I found Tip Top K9, they had good reviews, and I opted to take my dog for the intro visit. I met with the trainer for over an hour and we talked about all of my concerns. I didn't feel a crazy amount of pressure to sign up right away. After discussing it with my wife, we signed up a couple weeks later. I felt confident enough to send him away for 2 weeks. The key to Tip Tops whole program is to train the dog using an E-Collar and a remote. It is not a shock, but more of a stimulation. Its neither a positive nor a negative for the dog, but a reminder of the expectations, and an attention seeking element. Over time, the use of the collar and remote will not be needed. I have used a bark collar on my dog before I sent him to be trained, and he hated it. He would ignore it when it beeped, and when he did respond to the vibration, he hated it and would run off. The e-collar yields no such response. He remains his happy self, and obedient. While he was gone, we missed him. It was so nice for them to send little video clips of his training, and to see him happy and playing. I am so glad they sent those. When it was time to bring him home, the trainer (Josh) came to our house and spent almost 2 hours getting us up to speed on how to keep training our dog. He showed us how to properly use the e Collar and remote. We practiced Heel, Place, Off, Quiet and more. Our dog Chase was still his happy self, and he was so excited to see us. AND he was a totally changed dog for the better. The other key element to the training is the plan for continued success. After we were trained on how to properly use the e collar and the remote, we were given homework assignments to follow to keep his progress going. In addition to that, they offer free group classes for the rest of our dogs life. This will help in many ways. I really look forward to that. In the end, I wish we would have done this sooner. Yes is was an expensive investment, but to have an amazing dog for the rest of his life, and not having to fight the barking, or staying, or leash pulling, or just plain disobedience is worth it. I really don't think I could have done it on my own to this level. But I know that I can easily take it from here and continue his training progress. Well worth it. Thanks again Tip Top. See you at group class.

We had an awesome experience with Casey. She made our scared puppy feel comfortable right away. She has given us the tools we need to help build all of our confidence and be able to take sweet Oakley with us more places! Would recommend!!
