Pack To Basics(tm) Pack to Basics is a philosophy unlike any being used in dog training today. Embracing the unconventional approach of allowing dogs of every age, size and temperament to interact within a supervised environment, Pack to Basics relies on dog's natural reactions to cure aggressive, shy, fearful, and other problem behaviors. Pack to Basics program is based on the Large Field Socialization model first brought to North America by Dick Russell. By modifying this revolutionary approach, Pack to Basics developer Chad Mackin has made it possible for the benefits of the Large Field Socialization experience to be brought to dogs across the country, regardless of space or size limitations. Chad has helped countless trainers, including K9 Lifeline, adapt the Pack to Basics model for their training programs, bringing the true understanding of canine socialization and interaction to new levels.
	K9 Lifeline is currently offering day drop off socializing. Using the Pack to Basics methods, your dog will participate in several socilization sessions throughout the day. Your dog will be learning proper social skills from other dogs that will translate into your everyday existence with your dog. Socilization is available to all types of dogs with all types of behaviors. Because we focus greatly on each dog space each day is limited so please call to set up an appointment. K9 Lifeline is open Tuesday - Saturday from 8:30am-6:30pm for drop off programs. The fee for the day is $30.00 and each addtional dog is only $15.00.
Coming Soon... K9 Lifeline will soon be offering a free Pack to Basic sessions for owners and their dogs every Saturday morning at 10:00am and soon expanding into an evening weekday session. If you are intersted in signing up, please contact K9 Lifeline for more information.
