Dog Training and Behavior - Columbus and Central Ohio
The K9 Guy provides in home dog training, behavior modification, basic through advanced obedience, and other professional canine services throughout the Columbus and Central Ohio area. Welcome - my name is Guy Kantak, and I'm a Certified Professional Trainer working with dogs of all breeds and ages for very reasonable fees.
Any Dog, Any Age, Any Goal
Whatever the problem or whatever your goals, my one-on-one visits will help you and your canine live well together. From simple manners to advanced obedience training, I understand that every dog and family is unique. For this reason I use a variety of techniques customized to your specific situation, goals, and your pet's particular personality. This flexibility delivers effective results where other single-method approaches can fail. All sessions are patiently and conveniently provided in your home, where both you and your dog are more relaxed. You will see improvements after every visit, and you only pay for those sessions you find beneficial. No payment for services is ever required in advance.
I work with every dog and owner together - as a team! During each session your dog will learn to listen, and you will learn to effectively communicate and interact with your pet. This "dual-teaching" approach delivers superior, long lasting results. Owners involved with their dog's education build stronger relationships, improve the mental and physical well-being of their pet, and establish a foundation for a safe, rewarding, and happy life. Making good behavior (manners) a way of life creates a very satisfied and happy household!
Need Something Else?
Although a majority of my clients seek a well mannered dog or help to fix / correct a problem dog behavior, I do offer many other services. These include puppy socialization and housebreaking, preparing your pet for a new baby in the home, and helping owners find a new dog to fit in well with their family. My educational background also includes work with handicap assistance, scent detection, confidence building and more. If you don't see a service listed, be sure to ask. If I cannot help you personally, I'll be happy to refer you to any number of resources at my disposal.
It Starts With A Phone Call
The road to building a great life with your dog begins with a telephone call or email. Simply contact me anytime with your questions, or to schedule an initial session. Many clients are thrilled to discover a dog they never knew they had. If you'd like to experience a better life with your pet, there's no better time to start than today. Expect more - your dog will thank you !
