Hi! I’m Shannon and I’ve been running K9 Satsifaction for over 11 years. I have a passion for dogs and love to bring them to their best potential. Puppy raising, training and play is a passionate hobby that has become my source of income. Exercise and activity trips are a healthy way to keep any dog in a more balanced state of mind.
I also work with many “issue” dogs helping their owners understand their particular dog, problem solve their approach and create solid replacement behaviors for the dog to resort to. I balance my approach with healthy exercise/activities, continued training, text support for the owners and visits. I love to help people find a better balance with their particular dog!

We had Truffle and Hughie over to have some fun with Leo! Leo is a new 3 month shepherd pup we started working with recently!
Leo is learning how to read other dogs, play gently and be able to take breaks when the other dog is done playing. He is already responding much better to backing off when told and fitting in really well! It’s been fun having him over! Hughie and Truffle were fantastic helpers today and they also had a blast! Good dogs!!! πβ€οΈ

Hughie still has a social energy after hours of playing π
Too cute!
Happy little pups!!!
Teddy is back!! Once again showing off his stuff!
This guy completed some confidence building training and socializing months ago when he was younger and more insecure when out of the house. Now he is back showing great confidence and testing his limits back at home. He is in to work on no biting, less barking, off-leash obedience, duration down-stay in the house (promotes more respectful attitude, relaxation and less guarding), running next to a bike and just general listening skills/manners. No treats needed for this guy anymore! He works with enthusiasm and has been fun to challenge. He gave me some sass but now working like I knew he could! Super proud of this guy who has such a big personality in a little body. π

Yoshi and Chino are finishing up their third week of day training here! They are the sweetest and sometimes the craziest pups I have seen in. Double trouble or sweetness overload π I haven’t had a more enjoyable work week though as they keep me busy all day playing tug when we aren’t doing a lesson!
I had a strong emphasis on name differenciation, waiting their turn, playing with seperate toys/chews, breaking up any rough housing or play biting towards each other to prevent fighting(while also giving affection when together to promote positive vibes between them), socializing with other dogs, dropping the tug/toy/bone, and being quiet when contained. All of this along with primarily reward based obedience: place, sit, down, come, and heel.
I loved to see them bond together, mature and be very respectful little pups while still maintaining their youthful playfulness. They have been very fun pups to work with and I hope to see them back for more doggy socializing!

Stirner loves having his buddy River over to play tug endlessly with him. They have very similar personalities.
Awww this is so sweet!!!!
Emma is joining us this week again and I had to show off the main thing she has been working on here which is coming, going where I point and laying down to relax. She likes to whine and pace when I am out of the room so she gets sent to go relax frequently. lol! π She loves attention and touch but easily gets seperation anxiety so very limited quantities seems necessary for this girl to keep her equilibrium balanced. β€οΈ
Her dog social skills have improved immensely here! She has become more social and friendly with new dogs, learned to wait a distance politely when other dogs are getting attention/touch and sharing toys much better with the puppies. We are super happy about all of it! βΊοΈ
