I Am Shiny Object Dog Training
ISOK9 (I Am Shiny Object Dog Training) helps dog owners build control, structure, and trust through practical training that holds up in everyday life. Whether you are dealing with bad habit, or building a foundation of a young dog – the goal is simple: real progress you can carry forward.
Core Services
No two dogs show up with the same needs. ISOK9 develops a customized training plan for you.
An immersive program where your dog lives with Josh and joins his family pack. Helper dogs include Josh’s dogs - Venom and Vega and other graduates from his program. Your dog will receive consistent training and excursions can include local parks and pet friendly stores for distraction and environmental training depending on your goals.
Hands on sessions for owners who have more time, want to be more involved in the process and are do-it-yourselfers looking for a budget friendly option.
Support for common issues like leash pulling, jumping, barking, social skills with other dogs, and everyday disobedience and poor manners.
Every dog and owner situation is different. The first step is evaluating the dog, the goals, and whether the right path is private lessons or board and train.
Why Owners Choose ISOK9
Good training is not about making things look impressive for a day. It is about building habits that make life with your dog easier, safer, and more enjoyable.
Training is built around real behavior, real routines, and what actually matters once your dog goes home.
The dog matters, but so does the person holding the leash. Owner understanding and follow through are part of the result.
Not every dog, owner, or goal is the same. ISOK9 starts by figuring out the right path instead of forcing everyone into the same pitch.

ISOK9 Process
The process is built to keep things clear from the start. First, figure out the dog, the goals, and the fit. Then move into the right training plan with realistic expectations and a path forward.
Step 1
The first step is a consultation to talk through your dog, your goals, and the behavior or obedience issues you want to improve. This helps determine fit and point you toward the right type of dog training from the start.
Step 2
Face to face assessment and observation of your dog. Josh will discuss goals and build a custom plan customized to fit your needs.
Step 3
Step 4
The goal is not a short-term result or a staged improvement. It is better behavior, better obedience, and clearer communication that lasts. Board and train services receive a hand over lesson to learn the new skills and for every week of board and train you receive one additional lesson to improve management.
