Solid K9 Training – Keystone Courses
Not Sure Where to Begin? Start Here
These 6 Keystone courses give you the foundation you need for success with your dog.
We’ve created 40+ courses. Live workshops. Specialty training for every challenge. But these 6 are the foundation, the path that every owner eventually returns to.
At Solid K9, we’ve helped tens of thousands of owners with everything from leash reactivity to resource guarding to separation anxiety. And while every dog is unique, we’ve noticed a clear pattern: no matter where you start, almost everyone eventually comes back to these six courses.
Why? Because they’re the foundation.
Especially Green to Graduate — the course that takes your dog from untrained to reliable companion. It’s nearly impossible to fix advanced issues if the basics aren’t solid. A dog that guards resources, struggles with reactivity, or panics when left alone almost always has gaps in the fundamentals covered here.
That’s why we recommend starting with these Keystone courses. They don’t just fix problems — they unlock long-term success for you and your dog.
Start Here – Green to Graduate (GTG)
The foundation every dog (and owner) needs… before you dive into anything else. So many owners jump into specialty training: leash reactivity, separation anxiety, advanced obedience, only to realize they don’t have the basics down. That’s why almost everyone ends up circling back to Green to Graduate.

Rehabbing a Fearful Dog: Build Confidence and Calm
Help your dog move past fear and thrive in everyday life.
Living with a fearful dog can be heartbreaking — seeing them retreat, avoid, or panic in situations where you wish they could feel safe.

You’ll learn how to guide your dog out of fear and into a more balanced, happy life.
Resource Guarding: Restore Safety and Trust
Stop the growling, snapping, and guarding before it escalates.
Resource guarding can feel alarming — growling over food bowls, toys, or even people and spaces within the home. Left unchecked, it can escalate and put dog owners in a tough position with their dog. The Resource Guarding Guide gives you a clear, step-by-step plan to eliminate this behavior and rebuild calmness and peace of mind with your dog.
Separation Anxiety: Create Calm When You’re Away
Stop the stress, whining, and destruction when you leave home.
Separation anxiety can turn even short trips out of the house into chaos — barking, whining, destruction, and stress for both you and your dog. Separation Anxiety gives you a structured approach to help your dog stay relaxed when left alone, so you can finally enjoy living your life again and STOP being a prisoner of your own home.
