COOPERHAUS K9 QUALITY DOG TRAINING

Cooperhaus K9 is located on a five acre, completely fenced-in, facility in the east foothills of San Jose, Ca.  We are a family owned and operated business, headed by Calvin Cooper and Brent Cooper.  We are proud of our reputation of providing quality dogs, quality training, and quality services. 

CALVIN COOPER has been involved with dogs for over 60 years.  His interest in dogs was obvious from the young age of 7 or 8 years old when he and his brother, while growing up in Merced, Ca. would use mongrels and greyhounds for hunting rabbits, pheasants, and other wild game.  Later, Cal further his involvement with dogs while residing in Bakersfield, Ca. Not only did he continue to hunt with greyhounds, but he also became interested in "war dogs" and protection training.  Cal purchased his first Doberman Pinscher as a sophomore in high school in 1952.  

Upon completion of his military career as a soldier in 1957, Cal relocated to San Jose, where he graduated from San Jose State in 1963.  Also, in the early 1960's Cal was a founding member of 'Diensthunde Inc.' and was appointed 'head trainer' of the El Camino Chapter.  'Diensthunde Inc.' (service dog) was a dog training club that preceded Schutzhund in the United States. Dogs trained by Cal ranked within the top positions in the first Schutzhund Trial held in the United States at Searsville Lake, Woodside, Ca.

Cal established Cooperhaus K9 in 1971 and is known as a well respected dog breeder and trainer. He bred and raised Doberman Pinschers in the 50's, but has focused on breeding quality German Shepherds since the 60's, after acquiring a dog out of the world renowned 'Bodo Von Lierberg.' Cal started breeding Rottweilers in the 1970's.

BRENT COOPER, Calvin's son, has been training dogs for over 25 years.  He sold his first dog, which he completely obedience and protection trained, at the young age of  7 years old.  Brent has conducted group obedience training classes for the city of San Jose, in the past.  Understanding the way dogs think, Brent knows what a dog is going to do before the dog actually acts.  Brent's expertise in dogs was not learned from books, but from daily interaction with dogs, since birth.  In fact, in Brent's experience, most dog books and most dog advice is not accurate in that most of the advice assumes the ideal situation.  Brent is an expert in dealing with dogs displaying extreme aggression, shyness, hyper activity, dog aggression, and all other problem behaviors.

Brent has an uncanny ability to understand how dogs think and knows how to interact with them on their level.
