✨January Jumpstart: Move With Purpose✨

New year. New habits—for you and your dog.

For the first time, Pinnacle Pup Dog Training and K9 Pinnacle Performance are coming together to offer a small-group class that blends training, structure, and fitness—for both dogs and humans.

This is a structured group walk designed specifically for dogs and their people who want calmer walks, clearer communication, and better real-world behavior, without chaos or over-arousal.

This is not a playgroup.
Dogs will not interact with each other.

Instead, we’ll focus on:
• Loose-leash walking
• Neutral behavior around people and dogs
• Self control and impulse control
• Boundary setting and handler engagement
• Purposeful movement for fitness and consistency

From the training side, we’re building clarity and calm behavior.
From the fitness side, we’re supporting sound movement, mental engagement, and sustainable exercise.

Because January is short we’re offering a January Jumpstart option:

January Jumpstart (3 Saturdays):
• $225 for the month

Regular Pricing:
• $85 drop-in
• $300 per month (4 classes)

Class Details:
• 1-hour structured group walk
• Limited to 5 dog/handler teams

This is a first-of-its-kind offering built to help dogs move through the world calmly and confidently, while building better habits for yourself too.

Hello everyone!!

Abel Hounkara will be visiting Vacaville, California in a week. If you're excited about gaining a fresh outlook on the world of dogs that goes beyond techniques, and focuses on honing your instinct as a helper and coach, we invite you to join us. Our approach emphasizes working with the dog’s natural instincts, aiding them in conquering mental hurdles (fears), and boosting their courage outside their comfort zones. If you're seeking a genuine and spirited protection dog, this is the perfect opportunity for you!

Contact me for more details.
