Our Dog Trainer Team
Why Us?
Who you choose as your Dog Trainer is probably the most important aspect of the dog training process.
The experiences made by you and your dog will stay with you forever.
Humans are more forgiving when it comes to bad experiences than dogs are. We can reason with ourselves and overcome the trauma that was inflicted. In most cases, we will replace the bad memory with a more pleasant one.
For dogs this is not quite so simple.
Behavioral science teaches us that dogs will always revert to the first experience made, the first learned behavior. Therefore, it is extremely important that the behavior we expect from our dog is taught correctly from the get-go. Retraining a dog’s behavior is much more difficult than starting with a sound foundation.
Tino Reinke with Quality K-9 is a master at laying this foundation and then building a strong structure on top of it. Once you witness Tino at work with a dog, you will see how he gains the trust and respect of even very difficult dogs. Dogs simply adore him. They blossom in his presence, open up, relax and naturally want to please him. This comes as second nature to him and it is one of the most wonderful things to witness.
His strong leadership and the fairness that he projects toward the dog create a stress free environment, which makes it easy and fun for the dogs to learn.
Tino possesses an intuitive understanding of how demystify the complex laws of animal training, and make them practical.
People would call this type of person a gifted teacher, a brilliant leader, a winning coach, or a genius animal trainer.
Tino is so wonderfully skilled in how to apply and take advantage of these laws that affect training; that he comes as a godsend to those muddling along with a hard-to-control pet.
Watching him is pure poetry in motion, sought after by many but achieved by only a few. In his training, he applies a mixture of modern motivational training methods along with established conventional techniques paired with reinforcement to achieve a reliable and happy obedience performance in a most humane manner.
Tino has more than 30 years of experience in dog training. He is an accomplished trainer in the following fields:
Schutzhund
Agility
Military/ Polizei (German Police) Dog Training
Explosive/ Narcotic Detection Dog Training
Personal Protection Dog Training
Mobility Service Dog Training
Mold Detection Dog Training
and most importantly… Pet Dog Training
Our Dog Training Philosophy
QUALITY K9 IN PHOENIX AND SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA APPLIES SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN TRAINING TECHNIQUES TO EFFICIENTLY HELP YOU AND YOUR CANINE ACHIEVE YOUR TRAINING GOALS.
Our humane dog training philosophy is that this should be fun and rewarding for the dog as well as the handler. It is a proven fact that a stressful environment slows down the learning process. We strongly believe in creating a relaxed and stress-free atmosphere for our students, humans as well as canines. This is how we achieve effective, reliable results.
We will help you and your dog succeed in areas important to you:
as a family pet
as a constant companion for work and travel
in obedience competition
for personal protection
and even as a Schutzhund sport dog
Our training and coaching methods are tailored to your individual dog, your area of pursuit, and you as a person.
One thing we always focus on is developing a relationship of trust and respect between the person and their canine companion. When trust and respect are a foundation for the relationship; training your dog and living with your dog can be rewarding and fun.
We offer a variety of options to meet your needs, including:
Private training
Small group sessions
Dog boarding and training
Day training program
Our private coaching and training sessions can be conducted at our facility or in your home. We have a limited number of small group sessions in Scottsdale. If you want us to completely train your dog, we can do it through a variety of programs we offer at a state-of-the-art training facility. On occasion, we will take a dog into our home for intensive and focused training, both in house manners and as competition dogs.
Our dog training methods are a combination of the best practices from Germany and from the United States. We generally use a variety of motivational approaches including clickers, food, toys, and electronic collars. Our choice of method is a joint decision between our clients and us.
Training should be fun and rewarding for the dog and their human companion. To achieve high-level competition dogs the dog must be happy about their work, which means it is important to focus on training techniques that develop a dog that loves to perform. Call us at (480) 525-5525 so we can see how we can work together to achieve your goals for you and your dog. Our approach is to begin by having a conversation with the owner to understand your goals, the goals for your canine companion, and the approach to training that will meet your schedule and lifestyle.
If success on the field or the goal of having a well behaved “best friend” at home is what you desire, then Quality K9 is the company to call! We are looking forward to meeting you!
