Obedience Training and Boarding for Dogs
In Latigo k9 we consider the pet as a faithful companion that may need help to improve its behavior and that requires a caregiver when you have to go on a trip, this motivates us to offer our services.
Services
Individualized Obedience Training
LATIGO K9 offers both public and private obedience classNamees at our facility in Nosara, Costa Rica. We also offer obedience training for all types of dogs off-site and at home upon request.
Obedience and agility form the foundation bond between handler and dog. We find the problem isn't always with the dog, it's in the communication of the handler. That's why our training focus is on working with the handler to give them the communication skills they need in order to work more effectively with their dog.

About Us
Communication is key and LATIGO K9 training is where it all begins

The care and training we invest in pets determines the behavioral changes we want to make. At LATIGO K9 we pride ourselves on the capabilities of the pets we train, we build the foundation for communication, patience and the natural working capacity of each dog, thus creating a much more stable pet.
There is no place for toys, jerks, and treats in our training. Our dogs work for guidance plain and simple. We focus on a stable family and companion pet that respects its owner's instructions.
How is the LATIGO K9 training method different?

Our training methods are different from 99% of what is out there because we do not believe that we are teaching our dogs anything new. We are simply communicating with our dogs to use their natural abilities for our benefit. We do this without the bribe of toys or treats. You'll see that there is no ego involved in what we do, which is a significant shift from saying "we teach our dogs to bite" or "we teach our dogs to track".
By removing our egos and refraining from imposing human psychology on our dogs, we are free to work with them in an unlimited capacity.
