Training with K9 Pro
All Herzhund Dog Owners have a lifetime training discount with K9 Pro Trainers. We highly recommend that you have at least one session with one of our trainers when/or before your puppy comes home to learn some basic skills. Although this is not a requirement when receiving one of our puppies, we do believe training is an essential part of owing any dog and is a highly beneficial experience.
