In addition Alyssa Browning, Master Trainer put K9 Valor through all of his Foundation Dog and finishing work and is selling her 10th Service Dog that also protects through Top Tier K9.
Students begin the program through the "live online" pet trainer class. They then take the Foundation Dog® trainer class. Students then travel to Madison Florida where they work to certify as a pet trainer and Foundation Dog® trainer. Additionally students can attend the business bootcamp where they learn to start and run their own dog training business.
Foundation Dogs® can be finished as service dogs, protection dogs, Police/Military K9, virus detection dogs and special security dogs. Students complete the masters programs in these disciplines with a final requirement of training a Foundation Dog®, and finishing that dog for a paying customer after completing the live online classes in the specific disciplines.
It all starts with the Pet Trainer program and the next class begins January 12th 2023 with day and night options. Visit www.TopTierK9.com to learn more and to register for this class.

Virtual Reality Dog Training Center
Feedback has been phenomenal! learning to apply corrections and rewards properly using a virtual dog saves our real dogs from the amateur mistakes made by new students and clients. Our VR users master the command sequence prior to ever touching a real dog and we are seeing a huge reduction in mistakes and training time to meet the application level of learning for our dog owners and trainers. www.VRDogTrainingCenter.com
