Bringing home a puppy is a joyful milestone—but that joy often comes with nipped fingers, chewed furniture, and middle-of-the-night potty trips. Whether you’ve just welcomed a brand-new pup or you're navigating a few weeks (or months) of mischief, our reliable puppy training services are here to help you build a calm, confident, and well-mannered dog—right from the start.
At Equidus K9, we specialize in gentle, effective, and personalized puppy training for families in Mohnton and surrounding areas across Berks County. We work with all breeds and sizes, using modern, force-free methods to teach your pup how to thrive at home and in the world.
Let’s build the foundation your puppy deserves—together.
Puppies aren’t born knowing what to do. If you’re dealing with any of these behaviors, it’s time to bring in a trainer who can help:
These aren’t “bad behaviors”—they’re training opportunities.
Not at all. While we love starting training early, our programs are designed for both new puppies and older pups who may have missed the early window. Whether your puppy is 8 weeks or 8 months old, we’ll meet them where they are—and help them thrive.
Reach out today to learn how we can support you and your puppy
We never take a one-size-fits-all approach. Every puppy is different—so we personalize your plan based on age, behavior, and your household routine.
We train essential commands—sit, stay, come, down, leave it, and name recognition—for reliable communication and safety in real-life situations.
Equidus K9 establishes a consistent potty schedule and introduces crate training that promotes independence, reduces anxiety, and supports overnight success.
We eliminate pulling and panic by teaching your puppy to walk on a loose leash, maintain focus, and stay responsive—even around distractions.
We safely expose your pup to new people, dogs, sounds, and environments—reducing future reactivity and building emotional resilience.
We address common challenges like nipping, barking, chewing, and whining with calm, proven strategies that create lasting behavior change.

Every puppy is different. We tailor each session to your dog’s age, behavior, temperament, and your lifestyle—no cookie-cutter approaches.
We address behaviors where they matter most—walking calmly on leash, greeting politely, managing overstimulation, and listening under distraction.
At Equidus K9, you’re not just working with skilled professionals—you’re partnering with trainers who genuinely care. Our team combines hands-on experience with empathy, patience, and a deep understanding of canine behavior.
Whether you have a high-energy working breed or a reserved companion dog, we adapt training to match their learning style and needs.
We use modern, humane techniques grounded in clarity, consistency, and communication. No force, no fear, and no outdated tools.
From first-time puppy owners to unexpected challenges, we support you through key milestones. We train puppies, but we also coach owners.
“Our rescue puppy was anxious and reactive. Now she walks calmly on a leash and doesn’t bark at everything. Total transformation.”
“They turned our wild little lab into a calm, obedient pup. Equidus K9’s puppy training changed everything for us.”
We start with a no-obligation conversation to discuss your puppy’s age, behavior, training goals, and household dynamic.
Based on your puppy’s needs and your lifestyle, we’ll recommend a training program tailored for effective results.
Each session is goal-oriented and practical—focused on real behavior, real environments, and real-time coaching you can apply right away.
Raising a puppy can be one of the most rewarding things you’ll ever do—but let’s be honest, it’s not always easy. Some days are full of wagging tails and little wins. Other days? It feels like nothing’s working, and you’re second-guessing every decision.
That’s exactly why we’re here.
At Equidus K9, we offer more than just dog training—we offer real guidance, honest support, and a plan that makes sense for you and your pup. Based in Mohnton, PA, and serving families throughout Berks County, we meet you where you are, without judgment.
Whether your puppy’s pulling like a sled dog, barking nonstop, or you just want to get it right from the start—we’ve got your back.
Let’s make things easier for you and your pup.
The best time is between 8 and 16 weeks, but it’s never too late to start. Early training lays the foundation for lifelong good behavior.
Most families start with 3–5 sessions, but we offer flexible packages based on your goals and progress.
Yes. While we specialize in puppies, we work with dogs of all ages—especially those who missed early training.
We use a mix of food, praise, and play to keep your pup motivated and excited to learn. It’s all about building trust and positive habits.
Absolutely. We help you create realistic routines and offer evening and weekend appointments to fit your schedule.
