What happens when dog training focuses on building relationships rather than just obedience? Mary Siero, founder of K9 Coaching Academy, reveals a fresh approach to helping everyday people with their household pets.
Mary's journey began when she noticed a crucial gap in dog training services. While most facilities focused on competition and performance dogs, many pet owners simply needed help integrating their furry friends into family life. This realization led Mary and her colleagues to establish K9 Coaching Academy, where the focus shifts from rigid obedience to nurturing the human-canine bond through understanding, patience, and tailored training techniques.
The conversation debunks common myths about dog training, particularly the notion that older dogs can't learn new behaviors. Mary shares a touching story about rescuing an eight-year-old dog who had spent his entire life chained outdoors, yet through thoughtful training became a well-adjusted companion. "Dogs live in the present," she explains, offering an insight that applies as much to human psychology as canine behavior. This present-focused approach allows rescued animals to move beyond difficult pasts when provided with consistent love and proper guidance.
Beyond their standard classes, K9 Coaching Academy gives back through extensive community outreach, working with animal shelters to train volunteers and help special needs dogs, including deaf and blind rescues. They've created programs like "Canine Waggers" where therapy dogs visit nursing homes and businesses, and a performance team that entertains at community events. Their commitment extends to education programs in schools, teaching children about responsible pet ownership.
