What To Expect From Our

Dog Training Programs

Our motto is simple: We get results.

With extensive experience across a wide range of training methods, we have a strong track record of working successfully with dogs of all breeds, temperaments, and levels of difficulty—including large, powerful, and challenging dogs. As an award-winning competitive obedience trainer, Felix Sunga understands that good training should produce tangible, real-world results you can see and rely on.

Every dog is an individual. Breed, temperament, age, previous experiences, and learning ability can all influence how quickly a dog progresses and what the final outcome looks like.

Just as importantly, your participation matters. Training doesn't stop when a lesson ends or when your dog comes home from a program. The time, consistency, and follow-through you put into practicing what you've learned will play a significant role in making those new behaviors reliable and long-lasting.

We'll give you and your dog the tools, training, and guidance—you'll help turn those results into a way of life.

OUR MISSION

Final Stop for Disobedient Dogs

Popular Central California dog trainer Felix Sunga and our team work with all levels of behavior issues in dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes; however, we are sought out for our success with large, difficult-to-train, and/or hard-to-handle dogs, or those described as “failing” previous dog training attempts. Although our methods are dog-centered and 100% humane, in the world of dog training, we are known as the final stop for disobedient dogs.

Customizable Dog Training

All dogs are different. As are all owners. 


Everyone has their own goals and grievances, time frame, schedule, budget, and level of skill in working with their dog. So while we offer three basic programs for the Central Valley area, each is completely customizable to fit the needs of you and your pet. We’ll work with you to devise a solution that involves you in the training as much or as little as you prefer; in other words, you’re in control of the pace, frequency, and even the method used to train your dog.

Real-World

Dog Training Results

Great dog training isn't one-size-fits-all. Rather than committing to a single training method, we draw from a wide range of proven techniques and tailor our approach to the individual dog, the behavior we're addressing, and the owner's goals and preferences.

We use food, praise, play, and motivation to teach and reinforce desired behaviors, while also incorporating appropriate pressure when needed to establish clear boundaries and address unwanted or potentially dangerous behaviors. The level and type of pressure we use is always based on the individual dog and what that dog responds to appropriately.

We believe effective training should create clarity, confidence, and enthusiasm—not fear. Our goal is to build behaviors that are reliable and long-lasting in the real world while preserving the personality and spirit of the dog.

Ultimately, we don't simply want a dog that listens. We want a dog that understands what is being asked, enjoys working with you, and becomes a true partner in everyday life.

FELIX SUNGA

Award-Winning Dog Trainer

In 1998, Felix interviewed for a job at the San Francisco SPCA Hearing Dog Program. When he began, his abilities to train dogs to a high level came to the forefront and were evidenced by his ability to train his demo dog very quickly. Within 2 months of his employment, his demo dog “Whimsy” became a star in the world of hearing dogs. At this time, Felix completely re-vamped a hearing dog training system that once took 6 months to complete and is now 2 months from completion to completion. He also improved the rescue dog-to-serviceable hearing dog ratio from 35% to an all-time high of 77%.

Frequently Asked Questions
  • Can you tell me more about Central Valley K9?

    At Central Valley K9, our mission is to provide fast, effective K9 services that will last. Led by the Bay Area's best dog trainer, Felix Sunga, our teams work with all levels of behavior issues in dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes. Our specialized K9 services make us the best choice for especially hard-to-handle dogs that may have “failed” in previous dog-training attempts with other trainers.


    Our methods at Central Valley K9 include k9 services that are dog-centered and 100% humane. Our trainers are passionate about the dogs they train and strive to make training a fun and positive experience for the dogs. Our team of trainers is also very knowledgeable about different dog-training techniques and will create a customized plan for each dog to guarantee results.

  • Where can I find dog boarding and training near me?

    Central Valley K9 is an excellent choice for dog boarding and training if you're in California or nearby areas. They offer specialized services tailored to your dog's needs, led by experienced trainer Felix Sunga. Their program focuses on obedience, behavior, and specialized training for difficult-to-train breeds. 

  • What is a solutions session?

    The Solutions Session is an approximately one-hour dog training and assessment session conveniently conducted at your home in your dog’s natural surroundings. During this session, our training director, Felix Sunga, will observe, evaluate, interact with, and offer on-the-spot basic solutions for your dog’s issue(s). Scheduled to suit your needs—weekdays, weekends, or evenings—this initial meeting enables Felix to do three things:


    1. Assess your dog’s or puppy’s behavior and discuss your goals

    2. Perform a single dog training session, which includes providing you with several basic tips, techniques, and solutions to help manage your pet’s issue(s) immediately

    3. Collaborate with you and—should you decide to proceed with further training—identify which customizable dog training program is the best fit for you and your dog


    The fee for the Solutions Session is a one-time charge of $125.00. Since you will learn basic solutions on the spot, the choice is yours whether to pursue additional dog training with Beyond the Leash to reverse more ingrained obedience problems. Should you decide to sign up for Doggy Boot Camp in the future, the fee for the Solutions Session will be applied to this service, making this initial session absolutely free!
