Training Locations
On Your Mark K9 is based out of West Chester, PA, and is proud to offer in-home training lessons. Our sessions take place both at your home and in real-world public environments, as these are where your dog spends the most time. Many training programs focus exclusively on facility-based lessons, which can create a critical issue—dogs often struggle to generalize their training.
By training in both home and public environments, we ensure your dog can confidently apply their skills no matter where they go. All behaviors are taught in a controlled setting, generalized in public spaces, and proofed in the presence of distractions.
Lets Work Together
If training is only done in one environment, your dog may perform well there but struggle to apply those skills elsewhere. We believe this approach sets dogs up for confusion and failure when they’re expected to use the same skills in different settings.
