The K9 Enforcement Academy for Dog Trainers provides students with more than a basic education; students are offered the knowledge and skills required for professional dog training. The broad scope of K9 Enforcement's curriculum immediately prepares students to begin a full-time or part-time career training dogs upon completion of our courses.
Professional dog training is a profitable and satisfying occupation whether as a main career or as a second income. Our three-week Obedience Behavior Course specializes in teaching students obedience training, behavioral counseling, puppy development, and customer relations with dog owners. Whereas, the six-week Master Trainer Course continues by covering the advanced aspects of today’s professional dog trainer; including retrieval, owner protection, assistance dog training, tracking/trailing, scent detection, and basic police K-9. The Master Trainer Course also provides students with information on dog care, kennel management, and insight into establishing a successful small business practice.
Over ninety percent of our students take the six-week Master Trainer Course; however, if you are not able to attend school for six consecutive weeks, you can begin with the three-week Obedience Behavior Course and complete the remainder of the Master Trainer Course at a later date. We recommend you take the six-week course if you intend to make dog training a full-time career.
Upon completion of a K9 Enforcement Academy course, graduates are authorized by K9 Enforcement Academy to use the title Certified Professional Trainer or letters CPT after their name.
K9 Enforcement graduates pursue a multitude of options within the field of dog training. While most establish their own full-time or part-time training practices, others work with established training centers, veterinarian practices, boarding facilities or other dog related businesses. Some graduates also decide to pursue more specialized interests within the field; such as police k-9, voluntary search and rescue/recovery, scent detection, assistance dog training, therapy dogs, dog sporting activities, and much more.
