With proven experience, we train dogs of all breeds and deliver results that last.

Why Obedience Training Is a Game Changer

What Is Obedience Training?

Obedience training helps dogs learn to respond to basic commands like sit, stay, come, and heel. It forms the foundation for all other training types, including protection and service work.

Why It Matters

A well-trained dog isn’t just a pleasure to have around—they’re safer, more manageable, and more confident. For families, obedience training minimizes stress and strengthens the human-canine bond.

When to Start

The earlier, the better. Puppies can begin obedience training as early as 8 weeks. But it’s never too late; older dogs can learn new skills too!

“We started obedience training with Southern K-9 when our Labrador was 10 months old. The difference in just two weeks was night and day.” — Sarah T., Mobile, AL

Behavior Problem Solving: Get Back on Track

Common Dog Behavior Issues We Fix

  • Excessive barking
  • Aggression toward people or dogs
  • Separation anxiety
  • Leash pulling
  • Resource guarding

These behaviors can be frustrating—but they’re also fixable.

Our Proven Behavior Modification Methods

We use a combination of positive reinforcement, corrective tools, and real-world scenarios to reshape your dog’s behavior. Our goal is not just short-term fixes, but results that last a lifetime.

Tailored Plans for Dogs of All Breeds

From high-energy German Shepherds to stubborn Bulldogs, every dog is unique. We customize behavior training plans that consider breed traits, history, and home environment.

Protection Training That Prioritizes Safety and Obedience

What Is Protection Training?

Protection training teaches your dog to detect threats, alert you, and defend if necessary—while remaining under full control.

Who Needs It?

Families, business owners, and individuals who want a loyal companion with an edge in security. Unlike aggressive dogs, our trained protection dogs are sociable, obedient, and clear-headed.

Southern K-9’s Unique Approach

  • We start with obedience fundamentals.
  • Gradually introduce defensive drive-building.
  • Conduct scenario-based drills to simulate real-life threats.

Important: We never train dogs to be aggressive—we train them to be protective and controlled.

Why Clients Trust Southern K-9
