CompliantK9 offers lots of support to help you select the dog best suited to you, your family, and your lifestyle.
Take the CK9 Hook Me Up Survey and let Ann help you identify the personality, temperament and physical traits that will help you select that special ‘All-American’ canine family member from a rescue or shelter or read What Kind of Dog Should I Get? below for information about selecting a purebred or hybrid.
What Kind of Dog Should I Get?
One of the most important things you can do in selecting a dog to become part of your family is to compare your lifestyle requirements, personality, and needs of your family members to the needs and temperament of a particular dog. The chances of a satisfying and successful relationship with that dog you’ve always wanted are greatly increased if you do a little research up front. Whether you’re thinking of adopting a mixed breed or purchasing a pedigreed pup from a breeder, do everything you can to make an informed decision about your new best friend.
Thinking of Purchasing a Purebred or Hybrid (cross of two purebreds)?
A couple points worth noting: err on the conservative side in questions about your ability with Dominant Dogs and your availability for your dog’s Exercise requirements. These two extremely important issues can make or break a successful human-canine relationship.
Thinking of Adopting a Mixed-Breed (formerly known as a ‘mutt)?
It can be difficult to determine the exact breed heritage of an ‘All-American’ (mixed breed) dog. General breed-like physical characteristics can sometimes be identified, but even then it’s not an exact science in predicting the temperament and personality of the dog. In addition to breed-specific characteristics, shelter and rescue dogs may have life experiences that affect their personality and ultimately their behavior and needs.
The CK9 Hook Me Up Survey will allow Ann to help you determine the type of temperament, personality and physical characteristics that will work best in a dog for your particular situation and criteria. Ann can also help you do the footwork in finding your future best friend at a shelter or rescue.
Service pricing depending on your needs, but generally starts at $350, which includes the Leadership Principles Consultation. |
