Now lets take some time to review the facts...       

 Between the five methods used, the three collar methods choke, spike, shock are painful and damaging to the dog.  The fourth method, which uses food, will confuse the dog more than anything; it also teaches bad habits which will be battled daily their entire life.  The Ohio State K-9 College prefers only the fifth method, because it uses only the voice and has no negative side effects.  It's by far the best choice.

 Of the three styles, the group and boarding styles, combined with any of the 4 methods choke, spike, shock, food; experienced or inexperienced teachers only achieve to ruin the dog.  The Ohio State K-9 College, uses only the third style, the expert style, one-on-one.  This is obviously the best choice!

 As for the teacher, traditional schools employ dog trainers, all courses at the Ohio State K-9 College are taught by a Master Trainer with 28 years experience and a complete authority on the teaching of people and their dogs.  By comparison, there is no other choice!    

 The Ohio State K-9 College is the only school that uses a complete system, all three components working together, a state of the art system; the only system that assures each dog and owner will reach their full potential! 

 Leaving out even one of these three components would drastically affect the outcome of this system. The majority of schools leave out two of the most important components: the skills of a Master Trainer and the finest method in the entire world of dog training, the voice control method. 

 You may find a school who offers my expert style one-on-one, which they prefer to call private lessons; however, NO other school has all three components working together to make a complete system.

A STATE OF THE ART SYSTEM.

THE BEST SYSTEM SHOULD BE QUITE CLEAR BY NOW!

 Now that you understand all five (methods), all three (styles) and how important the role of the (Master Trainer) is, you must also realize that without his skills, even this state of the art system would not be able to reach its full potential.  Nor would you and your dog.

 CHOOSING THE RIGHT SCHOOL

 People who care, understand that the dog-owner relationship is unique and special.

 These people know that to choose the best school, they will need to know certain facts about the different types of schools available to them.  When doing any comparison-shopping, you have to ask questions.  However, be suspicious when you notice a school being reluctant to give you direct answers; normally, this means they're hiding something from you.  Don’t give in to their tactics; do NOT let them make you believe your questions aren't important!  Below are the 5 most important subjects that you need to ask about:

Which METHODS of training do they use?

 Ask them if they use the choker collar for their OBEDIENCE training.  Most schools don’t like to tell you they use a choker collar, because that’s admitting they choke your dog, which will cause pain; that's why it's called a choker.  They're so ashamed of what you'll think of them for using a choker on your dog, most schools won't even call it a choker when you ask them on the telephone.  Instead, they prefer to call it a (training collar, slip collar, check collar or martingale collar); sometimes to avoid any lengthy discussion they'll just say "We use (conventional or traditional) training methods."  However, these are all chokers with disguised names.  Once you finally realize these are choker collars, then they down-play the fact that they are choking your dog by calling it a leash correction.  Which is jerking a choker with the leash; they simply avoid using the word choker. 

 These are all deceptive sales techniques, used to trick consumers into coming in.  Their final maneuver and gimmick is to tell you that they'll give your dog a free evaluation if you come in.  Convincing you that you're getting something valuable for free, is their best bait and switch routine.  However, they won't tell you that an evaluation is performed by jerking on the choker with the leash.  This is why most schools won't let you watch them do an evaluation. 

 By admitting they use a choker, they know you probably won’t choose their school or leave your dog with them.  It’s obvious to them that most customers don’t want their dog trained or evaluated by choking them.  In addition, ask if they use spike collars or shock collars. 

What STYLE of training do they use?

 Remember the 3 styles: boarding, group, and expert.  Find out which STYLE they use.  As for the boarding style, since you have to leave your dog, you won't really know how they train your dog or if they mistreat them.  In fact, they expect you to believe that by leaving your dog with strangers, you can come back and pick up a perfectly trained dog that will obey you.  The boarding and group styles use an assembly-line type system, where all dogs are trained just one way and for a pre-set time.  They focus on the number of dogs that they can run through their programs in the least amount of time.  This is streamline training; is it right for your dog?

 How much EXPERIENCE do they have?

 More importantly, how many years experience does the ACTUAL TRAINER have who will be training your dog?  Most schools claim their founder has many years of experience.  He usually does.  However, he's not the one who will be training your dog!  They just advertise all of his years of experience to lure people in; this trick works on many gullible consumers!  However, what good is he to you or your dog, since he won't be doing any of the work?  Ask, and you'll see that this is true at most schools.  Their founder typically only manages or supervises; at some schools, he's only the director! 

 They don't like to discuss it, but at almost all schools, you and your dog get a different trainer every lesson.  None of the schools like to admit it, but they use part-time help or volunteers; some even have interns!  It's obvious why boarding schools try to encourage everyone to leave their dog there!  

 The assortment of people at boarding and group schools only add to the confusion, whether you leave your dog or NOT.  Now multiply that by the torture from their methods, their amateur styles, plus their crippling inexperience!  All of these things only cause extra physical or mental problems to your dog!  This is such unnecessary suffering to put a dog through, by such inferior systems.  And all in the name of profit! 

 The Ohio State K-9 College is one of the few schools in the world that employs ONLY one man, a true expert, a Master Trainer with 28 years experience, using a state of the art system. 

 Who has the BEST QUALITY training?

 The group style...has the lowest price and the lowest quality training in the entire industry, where professional quality training isn't even considered important!  This is where dogs are being experimented on like specimens, due to inexperienced amateurs, whose main goal is to save a few dollars.  The most important issue here is quality; unfortunately, this is sacrificed at the expense of their dog.  

 The boarding style...has the medium quality training.  You're paying for low-level skilled people, with very little or no experience.  Often, this style uses part-time help, apprentices or volunteers, all of which are literally practicing on your dog!

 Now you can understand why the group and boarding schools only want to quote their low prices, but never want to discuss the QUALITY of their training on the telephone and why they don't give a written lifetime guarantee!  Obviously, it's because of the poor quality of their training!  My parents taught me to judge a company by it's written guarantee, not by it's verbal promises.

 Almost all schools use these low quality training methods and styles just about everywhere, performing them rapidly, like an assembly-line, without the expertise of a Master Trainer. 

 The Expert...style is the highest quality training.  When nothing but quality matters; you must have a trainer with the most experience.  Choosing the wrong school can cost the dog its life; this is when price alone is not the most important factor.  But quality definitely is!  I think you'll realize then why parents always say, "You get what you pay for."  

 There is no imitation or substitute that is going to work when you need the very best.  A lifetime commitment for you and your best friend; you can't cut a corner and settle for less than the best!  This is when only a STATE OF THE ART SYSTEM will do. 

 Who quotes NON-NEGOTIABLE PRICES for PRE-SET COURSES?

 Almost all schools say they have set prices for their courses for fixed lengths of time.  Call and listen to their claims!  Do you think they can possibly see the learning potential of you or your dog on the phone without ever meeting EITHER of you?  Is it possible for any school to be able to figure the cost factors and give an accurate dollar quote on the telephone, without evaluating the owner and their dog?  A system without a personal evaluation prevents any chance for achieving the best quality results.  Only a seasoned veteran, such as an expert like myself, knows how to assess both and knows this can ONLY be done correctly in person.  Only then can a master of his field be able to customize his system to perform for what best fits you and your pets' needs.

 We sincerely prefer a potential customer who has spent time doing comparison-shopping.  We want you to talk with some of the other schools first.  Only then can you understand the QUALITY differences between Ohio State K-9 College and them.  After you have the knowledge of how other schools operate, you truly will appreciate what our school has to offer.

 Call us anytime and see if the first thing we discuss isn't the quality of the voice method, expert style, and working with the most experienced trainer in the state.  We will discuss how the 3 components work together in the state of the art system and how they achieve spectacular end results.

 It should be obvious to anyone why we're proud of our ability to achieve the best quality end results.  We know that when we use the best method, style, and our Master Trainer's experience, we will get superior results over anyone and any school!

50 Million killed in Terrorist Death Camps!!!

 Did we get your attention?  If you heard the previous statement on the news, you would be outraged; every single year, countless millions of dogs are put to sleep in this country!  The reason why they are abandoned, given up or put to sleep, is because they have either developed behavior problems or the owner couldn't get them successfully obedience trained (especially off-leash) or they just couldn't get them housebroken properly; normally, it's a combination!    

 Because of this, most dogs spend their lives in cages when the owners aren't there.  A high percentage lose their lives to the road when they get loose outside.  Many are euthanized when the owner gets tired of dealing with these problems.  More people than you would believe, try to sell these problem dogs.  Just look at your local newspaper on the weekends and see for yourself; do you know what causes all these problems?  

 #1 Reason: The owners have failed to get the proper training! 

 Most owners try to train their own dog; many aren't even as good as the worst trainers!  By doing this, they have failed themselves and their dogs.  Usually, this is because they didn't want to pay for training or just won't take the time to find the right trainer.   We find most people are not willing to pay an expert to obtain the proper training!  

 In some cases, the owner thinks they are doing the right thing by getting their dog trained; they choose the wrong school, which teaches the wrong method and style because it sounds like the price is right. 

 What a bargain...they get your hard-earned money for ruining your dog!  

They trick you out of your money, and the best end results.

My Goals, and final thoughts...

 I am Master Trainer Joey Byas, owner/founder of the Ohio State K-9 College.  This section is dedicated to all of my past and future students, including the ones that I don't work for.  I've hung up the phone on more people in 28 years with an attitude problem than you would ever believe.  They know nothing about what you've just learned (by reading this website), and they don't like my attitude when I explain the QUALITY differences between schools.  If they could just know what you and I know (by reading my website), they would understand how much I love my work and my passion for this job. They would realize that the tone of my voice is my desire to get my point across; I'm not trying to disrespect anyone.

 It saddens me to see dogs every day come from dog owners' and other schools, ruined and afraid.  The owners come to me and ask me to fix the problems with their dog; sometimes there's so much emotional damage, that I couldn't possibly fix it without months of intensive work.  I've seen cases where I wasn't sure that with all my skills, I could permanently solve all of their problems. 

 I've seen dogs so afraid, that there's hardly any personality left in them; I see mostly fear in their eyes.  I've observed dogs so traumatized, that they either growl at me or wet themselves.  This bothers me deeply because I know that the owners will not give me the time necessary to fix the problems created by themselves or the other schools; usually, they don't have the resources to fix it.

 It's my desire to avoid all of this from happening to as many dogs throughout my lifetime as possible; I accomplish this by giving the knowledge of my industry to all of my customers, unquestionably, undiluted and absolutely free.  

 My father used to say, "If you try hard enough, you can make a difference" and I've never been a quitter at anything.  My mother used to say "Knowledge is power" and even power must be used appropriately to be effective. 

 I've spent over 12 hours a day, 5-6 days a week, running this school all by myself for the past 28 years to get this knowledge and I have no regrets about this.  However, only the customers who take the time to use this knowledge and learn all these facts previously mentioned, show me that by taking the time to learn the facts, that they are the type of student who is ready to listen, and therefore, are the ONLY people I am willing to work with.   

 Someday, these people I hang up on that don't understand me will have a dog they really love who has been ruined by one of these con artists; they'll remember me and the truth that I tried to give them when it's too late!

 I want to serve students who are willing to take the time to do this homework assignment, which is to read all of the information on this website and follow my instructions on this site.  These are the kind of students that I am most proud to serve.  I am more than happy to be their trainer and proud to have them on my team.  I believe these students are as serious about their dogs as I am at training them both to the best of my ability; these are the people that really bring out the best in me at teaching.  I can honestly say, I truly love my job and serving these unique students.  I've also decided to put the power of this knowledge to work internationally on the website so that all people (not just my customers who call or come in) but so everyone can know the truth from an expert, absolutely free. 

 Don't forget why the other schools never talk about their methods or styles.  They know you wouldn't pay for inferior end results.  Don't allow yourself to be tricked.  I'm sure that loving dog owners want what's best for their dog; other schools just don't offer it!  REMEMBER...quality end results are attainable ONLY by starting with an Expert Trainer.
