Our Comprehensive Canine Training and Rehabilitation Services
"One & Done" — Because Most of Our Clients Only Need One Session
At DK9S, most of our training isn't weeks or months long. It's focused, instinctive, and immediate. Our specialized "One & Done" approach often resolves reactivity, obedience issues, or behavioral tension in a single session — sometimes when nothing else has worked.
Whether it's aggression, anxiety, or simple obedience, the goal is to create real change right away — not lock you into a program.
That said, every case is different. Your dog's success depends on a mix of temperament, history, and your own confidence and follow-through. Some situations require a deeper reset — that's where our Board & Train program shines.
Reactivity & Aggression Rehabilitation
Designed for dogs struggling with fear, aggression, or reactivity issues. These cases often involve high-stress triggers like barking, lunging, growling, biting, or shut-down behavior. We create a calm, custom training plan and often see breakthroughs in just one session.
- —In-home or on-site options available
- —Safe, effective, real-world results
- —Holistic supports used where appropriate (Reiki, oils, frequency, behavior desensitization)
- —Owner coaching included in all cases
Starting at $400 for One & Done session

Remote Sessions, Risk Assessments & Temperament Evaluations
At DK9S Canine Behaviour Modification & Obedience Training, we offer more than in-person behavior help. We also specialize in canine risk assessments and temperament evaluations for bite incidents or severe reactivity cases — both locally and remotely. Whether you're a concerned owner, rescue, trainer, or vet, we help assess behavioral risk and outline practical steps to move forward.
- —In-home mobile services available within 2-hour radius of Lamont, AB (surcharge applicable)
- —Main location in Lamont
- —Remote sessions available by Zoom, FaceTime, or phone — for clients across Alberta and beyond
- —Ideal for rural or out-of-province clients, or follow-up support
We've supported dog owners as far as internationally — because behavior is universal, and so is the need for help.

How to Get Started
Every case is different — and I decide what's needed based on what you share with me. The best way to begin is to reach out by email with as much detail as you can: what's going on with your dog, your phone number, and a good time to connect. I like to speak with people on the phone before booking, so I can make sure I fully understand the situation and we're the right fit for each other.
You can also use the contact form on this site — it works just as well and gives me everything I need to follow up with you directly.

We're not here to sell gimmicks or upsell sessions. We care about people and dogs—deeply. Every session is tailored, personal, and grounded in the kind of trust that brings real transformation.
How to Get Started
Every appointment begins with a conversation — not a booking form. Before any session is confirmed, I speak with you directly by phone to understand what's going on with your dog and determine which program is the right fit. The best way to reach me is by email, as it gives me the details I need to prepare for our call. Please include your dog's situation, your phone number, and a good time to connect.
You can also use the contact form on this site — it works just as well and gives me everything I need to follow up with you directly.
Once we've spoken and confirmed the right program for your dog, a 50% deposit is required to secure your booking. Your booking is not confirmed until the deposit is received. You're welcome to pay in full at the time of booking if you prefer.
All payments are by e-transfer to payments@dk9s.com. Please include your name and the service booked in the transfer message so your payment can be matched to your application.
