About Molina K-9 Training

Molina K-9 Training's Philosophy

At Molina K-9 Training, our top priority is to get the results you need to improve your quality of life.

Whether your pet dog requires behavior modification, or you’re looking for a service dog to help you in your everyday life, our programs are tailored and customized to fit your needs. We don’t believe in a cookie-cutter approach to dog training. We know that every individual is different, and every dog is different.

Our focus is on using scientific and balanced dog training methods for all of our training programs. This approach is guided by our education and experiences. Our emphasis on balanced dog training means that we utilize all four quadrants of operant conditioning in order to help achieve your desired outcome.

As a small business, we passionately believe in providing quality over quantity. We work alongside you, and we will never treat you like ‘just another customer’. Instead, we pride ourselves on offering exceptional service and helping you to achieve your dog training goals – no matter how big or small they may be.

I have 3 dogs and chronic pain, so it’s not always easy for me. Pam created a schedule that was color coded for each dog and gave me ideas for enrichment that have helped immensely. I can’t say enough how much my relationship with my dogs have changed for the better. Particularly with my one dog that I was having difficulty with. We still have our struggles occasionally but that is my fault if I don’t keep up with the schedule. I am 1,600 miles from Pam. And she helped me more than any local trainer has. I highly recommend Pam for your dog training needs. You need to do the work, but the change you will see is worth it. Happy dogs, happy life!
