About Steve Blair
Founder and owner, Steve began his career in 1987 at one of the most prestigious training facilities in Southern California. He became widely recognized for his ability to train dogs for such things as obedience, protection, tracking, and agility. Soon he was recognized as a trainer of award winning, working dogs. His advanced knowledge of these skills led him to open International K-9, a facility dedicated to the ability to train a dog for any job, (Obedience, Protection, Tracking etc.) and personalized training and sales. Steve has repeatedly said “Working with only 5 dogs and clients at a time allows us to do a better job with the dogs and lets us accommodate our clients fully.”
When he is not working Steve enjoys, bone fishing, scuba diving and boat racing (with his friends and clients in South America). Steve also enjoys water sports, snow skiing, martial arts, motorcycle racing and anything that is high performance!
To this day Steve and his friends, including his counterpart in Germany who was in the 2000 world competition representing Germany, continue to sell dogs throughout the world to private people, celebrities, police departments, military and much more.
Our Goals & Results
If your dog has specific problems, we can correct them for you. Problems such as, under-socialization, digging, biting, barking, jumping, or chewing can all be corrected when the dog is shown the positive way to behave in a situation. The problems are fixed by establishing a line of communication through obedience and showing the dog what TO DO rather than what NOT TO DO. This method of training allows the dog to gravitate to the reward of behaving correctly rather behaving out of fear of discipline.
