The Intermediate Program

In addition to the foundation your pup would learn in the fundamental program, this program takes your pup to the next level. More time with us means more repetitions. More repetitions means better retention. This means your pup will be solid around distractions, not just in a controlled environment.

What Your Dog Will Learn During The Intermediate Program

WEEK ONE YOUR DOG WILL LEARN THE FUNDAMENTAL PROGRAM SKILLS!

  • Manners: No Jumping, No leash pulling, Respecting thresholds, How to behave in the kennel, Ignoring distractions.
  • Basic Commands: Sit, Down, Place, Heel, Recall.
  • Loose Leash Walking - No pulling on walks and increased focus.
  • Proper greeting of dogs and people.

THE SECOND WEEK YOUR DOG WILL LEARN:

  • Impulse control: Ignoring its environment, while under distractions.
  • Basic Commands Sit, Down, Place, Recall, with elevated distractions for duration.
  • Outings: We will take your pup on outings to proof skills, in real life scenarios
  • Off Leash Freedom: With a little work at home, you’ll have a pup that you can enjoy Off Leash

THE LONGER YOUR PUP IS WITH US, THE BETTER THEY ARE FOR YOU, IMMEDIATELY!

Training is guaranteed for the life of the dog. We offer free unlimited follow up sessions for dogs that complete any of our adult drop off and board and train programs.

Regardless of the program you choose, you will see results.

What Others Say

Brought my year old high energy rescue pittie mix for two weeks of training. The results were almost immediate. Our trainer Bailey clearly loves dogs and knows how to get the best results for your dog. She was so patient with us during our one on one sessions and really gave us the knowledge and tools we needed to continue training our dog at home. This is a first class highly professional dog training operation. I highly recommend it particularly if you have behavior issues with your dog that nothing seems to be working.

I sent both of my dogs, one is a labradoodle and the other a bernedoodle and West TN K9 was amazing! I will always recommend them! They were so sweet with my boys and I got to see updates through training. They taught me how to transition with them back at home to continue their training and reinforcing what they learned at training! They’re awesome!

Bailey and Mack did such a great job with our 4 month old Great Pyrenees! He did the 4 day puppy program and they were very communicative each day about what he was learning and his attitude throughout the day. The training session at the end of the program was very helpful! They walked us through everything and answered any questions we had with ease. We can’t wait to continue training with all of the tips, tricks and tools they provided us with.

I took my 5month old GSD mix puppy for a 4 day board and train and I LOVED it! Each day I received a report card with pictures (attached) on how she was doing and what they learned and when I came to get her, they showed me how they worked with her and how I can continue building on what she learned with follow up sessions available!I’m looking to continue her training with them and will be bringing my pitbull to them too. Couldn’t recommend them enough!

West Tennessee K9 is awesome. Well worth it. They changed how our dog acts and how we live in such a positive manner in only 3 weeks. Highly recommend them to anyone seeking training or help with their dog. Emily was our primary trainer and was awesome as well. Couldn’t be happier!!

This place is the best!! Worth every dime, I love the staff and they clearly love my dog! I was at a loss with what to do with my American Bulldog until I talk to Taylor at West TN K9, she assured me they were in my corner. I did the 3 week drop off pick up program and by week 2 I was seeing some real results. The daily report cards were a nice touch to let me know about my dogs day! Bailey, Vader’s trainer was personable, sweet and knowledgeable!! I highly recommend any of the trainers here and this facility to anyone needing help with their dog!! Thank you West TN K9!

I don’t even know where to start. My experience with WTK9 has been absolutely fabulous! My dog had adult and puppy training. I love that once you are done training they bring you in and show you what your dog has learned and then give you tools to continue the training. They also encourage follow ups after you have completed your training. The staff genuinely love their job, and want’s your dog to be the best version of itself. I honestly have to say there is a huge difference in my dog’s behaviour after training. I’m extremely gratefully and feel more confident with my dog! Look forward to daycare with you guys!
