What they say about themselves
Pro K9 Ops is led by Manuel Gudiño, an IAABC Certified Dog Behavior Consultant, Certified Patrol and Detection Dog Trainer through AK9I, and NePoPo Gold Graduate. His background also includes judging obedience, temperament, and protection dogs, competing in multiple dog sports, and earning numerous competition and conformation titles. The business works with companion dogs as well as competition dogs and states that aggressive dogs and dogs rejected by other facilities are welcome.
Residential programs take place in a dog-ranch environment and range from a three-week foundation program to five weeks of immersive off-leash obedience. Dogs receive more than two hours of individual attention per day, and the facility uses private 6-by-12-foot runs with rubber flooring and weather protection. A climate-controlled room is available for older dogs and dogs with special needs. Day training and in-home packages provide alternatives for owners who do not want a residential program.
Training is organized around Pro K9 Ops' FOCUS system, which stands for Facilitate Outstanding Concentration Under Stress. The site describes an individualized approach using repetition, reward, controlled exposure, proofing, and a focus on the dog's motivations, learning rate, and emotional state. Behavior modification may address aggression, anxiety, fear, compulsive behaviors, and other complex concerns. Every dog is evaluated before acceptance, and completed training programs include ongoing access to free individual or group sessions by appointment as well as lifetime coaching support.
Three-week Foundation Obedience, five-week Immersive Obedience, day training, private field lessons, in-home training, behavior modification, scent detection, protection work, and advanced competition obedience are available. Pro K9 Ops accepts dogs from four months old with no upper age limit and specializes in dog-to-dog and dog-to-human aggression.
Foundation and Immersive Board and Train cost $1,050 per week, making the listed three-week and five-week programs $3,150 and $5,250 respectively. Day Training and field sessions are $175.
