Brittany G. asked:In need of advice. Our almost 2 year old pitbull was attacked by 2 mastiffs and ever since he hates all other dogs old young especially males. I have had a few trainers say they can fix him if he goes with them but he is my sons companion so that is a no go. Any other suggestions would regular training with a trainer help?Ana M. replied:Maybe Sparks K9 can work with you without taking him into board and train. I would think that would be a better learning experience for yourself as his handler. http://www.sparksk9.com/Todd P. replied:If you are in the Monroe area.....Sparks K9.

Morgan D. asked:I have a 4 year old F gsd/golden retriever mix who needs some help with socialization. She barks at anyone who isn't myself or my boyfriend and cowers, growls/grumbles at other dogs although she has never been mean or aggressive. Who do you recommend for help with this? I would like to be able to take her to the dog park with no fear since we just moved to a house with a smaller yard, near a school.Corina G. replied:http://www.sparksk9.com/ John Sparks is a great trainer, he has helped me, a friend, and her brother with all of our dogs! He and his wife not only train, but they rehab rescue dogs so they are used to working with all kinds of issues.

Sarah B. asked:I just moved to Everett. I have a pit bull named Karma. I love her to pieces. I have always had problems with her being sort of a crazy spazz dog in the presence of animals that she doesn't know. Ffwd through 2 years of intense training and though i have a very well trained dog, she just cannot shake the anxiety when she sees any kind of another animal. Right now, I'm having issues with her in constant freak out because of all the birds and squirrels that come into my backyard. Though I've been handling it to the best of my ability, today was the final tipping point for me to admit that we need some help with this. After whining at the screen door for hours, and i don't mean the sad kind of whining, she heard a squirrel up in a tree and booked it all the way downstairs and ripped through my mom's screen door. I don't know how to help her, but she is in a constant state of aggitation. Exercise works enough to make her tired enough to take naps, but in all her waking hours, she is just not calm if she is able to hear animal sounds outside and outdoors, she is not calm either. Can anyone help me out? Before we left cali, we had our trainer tell us that we needed behavior modification therapy and some medication for anxiety. She does indeed exhibit every single sign of anxiety in the prescence of wildlife and other uknown animals. Thanks!Kimmy S. replied:We can help.. www Sparksk9.com is our website Email is Sparksk9 services@gmail.com. We specialize in this type of behavior.Karen K. replied:Kimmy Sparks, Sparks K9 in monroe.Julie S. replied:Sarah, I highly HIGHLY recommend Sparks K9 in Monroe.

It's in everett on smith avenue. I tried to figure out what kind of training methods are used at Sparks K9 but couldn't find a clear answer on the webpage.

We have done training privately and he does great with just us but he has zero manners around other people/dogs and doesn't listen to a thing we say when there are distractions.

Megan W. asked:Hey, I have a 5 month old border collie who I would like to enroll in obedience classes and ultimately agility classes. He is fairly well behaved but there are some specific behaviors we have not been successful at mastering with him such as loose leash walking, not jumping on people/counters/tables, mouthing. Basically the more difficult to the teach ones. So, my question is, what are some good places for classes in the area? I am willing to drive a little bit if it means the right place. I would LOVE to find a place that has good obedience classes and good agility classes so we can build a relationship and stick with one place, but I would be willing to go to two different places it it was needed to get the best experience for me and my dog. So, suggestions!? Thanks in advance!Dean F. replied:https://www.facebook.com/SparksK9Services
