Your dog lives in our home for 12 days to learn obedience commands and good manners. This sets them up with a solid understanding of the vocabulary and expectations. When they're ready to go home, we work with you in a 2-3 hour lesson to show you how to be an effective leader, how to keep problem behaviors under control, and how to maintain commands. Your lesson is private and personalized to meet the needs of your dog and family. Our training eases the frustrations that come with dogs that don't listen, and it boosts the confidence of dogs that are anxious or fearful. Whatever you're dealing with, we can help!

Co-Owner of Proven K9 Training JJ! After serving in the United States Army for 10 years, and spending 8 years working in corrections and serving with the Sheriff’s Reserve in Union County, New Mexico; JJ trained Proven K9 Training’s first official dog in July of 2012! He was instantly attracted to the working dog side of things. The ability to channel behaviors is something he dove into deeply and he has always enjoyed watching the changes PK9 makes in the dog and humans life. JJ’s favorite part about being a dog trainer is watching a dog’s “light bulb” moment when the training makes sense. JJ’s advice for dog parents is to have boundaries for your dog, show them what’s allowed and what’s not from the very start. Also a leash can change the world. JJ specializes in Behavior Modification and K9 Training. Last but not least, if JJ was a dog he would be a Malinios because they are super agile and were recently voted the most intelligent breed on the planet and these are the characteristics he aspires to achieve each day.
