About our instructors
Being an instructor at GHOST K9 Training is not a job that can simply be applied for through a traditional résumé or secured through a standard interview process. In fact, all of our dedicated GHOST instructors begin their journey as students themselves. They earn their stripes and work their way up to the advanced class, having been promoted through our unique color leash system. Once they've reached this level, they become eligible to take on the role of a training assistant. This role is not just a walk in the park; an assistant typically trains rigorously for an average of 12 months before finally earning the esteemed title of Instructor. All GHOST Instructors have been right where you are now and fully understand the challenges and struggles you have faced. They are genuinely here to help you and your canine companion. When you enlist in any of our specialized training programs, you are not merely signing up for a course—you are joining a vibrant, supportive community filled with dog enthusiasts, all working together to achieve success!
