About Us | RUSSELL'S K9 ACADEMY

I’m Albert J Russell Jr., Here at Russell's K9 Academy we offer generations of professional dog training and professional behavioral training for Aggression Rehabilitation. My passion for Dog Training began when I was 16 and started working as a kennel caretaker for my beloved Father Albert J Russell Sr. At 17, I began training Sport hunting dogs, learning about prey drive and hunt drive from my father, who had learned from my Grandfather, who taught and owned with an understanding of GRNITECH Dogs.

In the mid-1990s, I expanded my expertise into K9 Foundation Advanced Obedience Training and K9 Protection Training, studying defense and prey drives under a retired K9 veteran. These foundational principles became integral to my behavioral training methods. Over the years, I’ve worked with and studied Master Trainers to refine my understanding of canine psychology, genetics, and the universal laws of pack behavior further.

After many years as a professional dog trainer and behavior specialist with a fundamental understanding of Universal Laws of Canine Behavior and breed genetics, my approach combines classical conditioning, operant conditioning, and Pavlovian techniques. These methods lay the (Foundational Groundwork) for advanced obedience and off-leash training for:

• Pet Dogs
• Service Dogs
• Support Dogs
• K9 Working Dogs
• Sport Hunting Dogs
• Off-Leash Working Dog

I strive to share my knowledge with others, teach dog owners how to combat behavioral problems before they arise, and give my Canine owners one of the best-trained dogs in their Lifetime.
