We often hear, “My dog already knows the basics.” But can your dog perform that behavior correctly eight out of ten times? If not, the behavior is not proofed, and your dog does not fully understand it yet.

Start at home. Ask for the command ten times. If your dog succeeds at least eight times, move to a slightly more distracting environment and test it again.

Like Sam-I-Am, practice here, there, and everywhere. Take it one environment and one distraction at a time. Reliable behavior is built step by step.

We are so excited to share that Firefly K9 won Best Dog Trainer in Best of Catawba Valley 2026!

What makes this even more special is that we didn’t even realize we had been nominated. Our clients, friends, and community showed up for us completely on their own, and that means more than we can say.

To receive this recognition in our very first year of business is something we’re incredibly proud of. We started Firefly K9 with a vision, a lot of hard work, and a genuine love for what we do.

And this is only the beginning.

Thank you to everyone who nominated us, voted for us, trusted us with your dogs, and continues to support Firefly K9. We can’t wait to see what the future holds!

Protection dog. Extreme obedience. Complete neutrality. This is the kind of training that challenges us, sharpens us, and makes us better.

E-Collar Class is coming to Firefly K9!

The e-collar is more than a correction tool. When used correctly, it can create clearer communication and greater reliability between you and your dog.

During this 2-week class, we’ll cover proper introduction and conditioning, finding your dog’s working level, timing, leash and e-collar pressure, reinforcement, troubleshooting, and applying these skills around real-world distractions.

This class is great for handlers who are new to the e-collar or already use one but want a better understanding of when, why, and how to use it effectively.

Starts September 6 | Sundays at 6 PM | 2 Weeks

Spots are limited to allow plenty of individual instruction. Message us to reserve your spot!
