Dear Duke,
I want to thank you for all the work you have done in helping me to train princess. It is greatly appreciated. After two weeks I could see a big difference in her. As you know, she is a strong willed dog, but through your training, I have been able to gain the control I need to handle her. It took some time, but she knows her place in the family, and is content, and always looking for ways to please. You have my highest recommendation, and I have told numerous friends about your work. In my opinion, every dog owner should have at least the basic training. Thanks again for training me and the dog.
Sincerely yours,
Victor Gosbee, and my Rottweiler/ lab mix “Princess”

I called Duke from Ontario where I had been in some variation of clicker training with my dog Massi for a year. I had one month in PEI, which would be the deciding month for my husky cross, who was a rescue. A veterinarian had told me that the dog should have only been adopted to experienced dog owners. I felt experienced having had dogs my whole life. Now I had a 1-2 year old abused husky that was developing leash aggression and was still shy around strangers. I was not confident she could be rehabilitated into my lifestyle.
Duke answered my call promptly and to the delight of many, he actually listened to my plight, and understood that I was “clickered out”. He also understood my time constraints and adapted the program so that I could achieve my goals with Massi. Duke’s friendly chit chat, I realized in time, was actually his way of finding out what the dog (and I) had been up to between sessions…and he would call me on some of the things he felt I could do better.
Training dogs, and their owners, requires a high degree of organization and preparation as well as the ability to give clear and concise instructions. Able to adapt to constant changes in temperament of both Massi, and myself, while offering creative solutions to a variety of situations that the dog came into while on the island, Duke proved himself. He is a take-charge person and carries out his role confidently and with the ability to look at the big picture. I am grateful for all Duke accomplished over the course of a month. I would not hesitate to recommend Duke and Kings County K9 Academy (now UPK9), and do so with the knowledge that any task he is asked to do will be handled efficiently and with the individual dog and owner in mind.

He didn’t know it yet, but Fergus had eaten his last cake off of the kitchen counter when I contacted Duke! We had tried group lessons and our own training efforts with no success, with every passing day we were feeling more hopeless and frustrated with Fergus’ behavior. Duke had been recommended to us, and we were not disappointed! From the very first lesson Duke had us feeling more positive and in control in our relationship with Fergus. With every lesson, Duke not only showed us how to train Fergus effectively, but more importantly, he trained us to be more effective owners. This has given us a new beginning with Fergus and the promise of a long and happy life together. We would not hesitate to recommend Duke and cannot stress enough what a good investment working with Duke is for both you and your dog!

Update on our little friend Chiklet, the pomeranian.
I thought I would drop you a line and let you know that Chiklet is doing fantastic! She is such a well behaved dog, and now that she is four she is starting to calm down a little bit. She will always be a high energy pup but with exercise, and other physical activity, she has a channel for her energy! Despite my hectic schedule I make sure that Chiklet gets outside for a long walk or run at least twice a day. This helps build the relationship between her and I, and allows her to get the satisfaction of exercise and obedience. Chiklet is a smart dog, and anticipates every challenge that I give her!
This may sound odd, but last year when I was graduating from UPEI your training program helped me pick Education as my next endeavor. The training techniques, and learning strategies, that you use to train dogs are not all that different than the ones I use in an eighty minute high school classroom. What you taught me about motivation and rewards is especially relevant to my B.Ed. Studies at UPEI. Who knew that teaching High School English and Creative Writing would be comparable to obedience training?
