German Shepherd Training
German Shepherd Training Specialists
Platinum K9 trains many different breeds of dogs, however the core of our business is as German Shepherd training specialists. Over half of the dogs training with us at any one time are GSD’s.
Last week we welcomed three German Shepherds for residential dog training, Elmo, Bacardi and Ella all arrived within a few days of each other.
Elmo
Elmo is a long coated male German shepherd whose training will be focused on dog aggression. He also needs to learn boundaries and social skills around people. His owners also struggle with his energy and lack of obedience at home. Nuisance barking causes them a lot of stress.
Bacardi
Bacardi is a beautiful white GSD whose training will also be focused on dog reactivity. He pulls very strongly on the leash and is difficult to control on walks. Bacardi also needs to learn some general obedience in the home.
Ella
Ella is a lively and excitable German shepherd. Her training is focused on channelling and controlling that energy. We will be training her on and off leash. This includes recall training and a high level of obedience training.
