Some of the trainers and pups certified January 4th 2025 as Foundation Dog Trainers and level 2 Franchises.

Scent detection, advanced obedience, bite work and tracking for puppies that are 18 and 20 weeks old.2 litters, 13 trainers and 8 states all came together for a successful certification of Tier 3 Foundation Dogs.  20 puppies certified Tier 3.  1 Puppy fell short in protection and will make an amazing scent detection/tracking dog and even a service dog for someone with severe disabilities. Our Litters on the Ground program created the puppies, our Academy for Dog trainers created the Master trainers and the Foundation Dog training processes and protocols, Top Tier K9 Franchising brought together the certified locations and buyers to make this program a huge success. In motion commands, off leash recalls, conditioned retrieves, finding odor hidden in rooms, obedience for bites, tracking with no food on track, standard paces and indicating on articles…and so much more. The primary purpose of our Foundation Dog Trainer program is to create amazing dog trainers that are managing their own Top Tier K9 franchises.  We do far more than simply train pets, we train dogs to perform any working dog function on behalf of our buyers.  These dogs make great demo dogs for the franchise owners and as they continue to take advantage of our litters on the ground program, they have access to world-class puppies to train service dogs, protection dogs and special security dogs for their communities.

9 GSD puppies are now 1 week old and in 7 weeks we will run another Foundation Dog trainer class.  There is nothing more satisfying than to bring out the absolute best in a dog and a trainer. Top Tier K9 corporate keeps the puppy pipeline filled on behalf of our Franchisees and their Foundation Dog programs.
