Absolute Canine

I feel lucky to have found such an incredible trainer for my Saint Bernard Martini. She was out of control with guests, I couldn’t walk her in public due to her over powering me when other dogs were around and to top it off she suffered from so much anxiety and disassociation she wouldn’t even make eye contact with me to even try and connect to teach her anything myself. I thought it was a lost cause after trying a puppy kindergarten and a few in home sessions with other trainers. After speaking to Amanda on the phone and sitting down with them in their beautiful property I was easily convinced to dive into a full training regimen and I’m so happy I did. Martini doesn’t leave my side. Her listening and commands are top notch now but even more importantly she’s engaging and polite and I truly feel blessed to have the connection I have with her since she completed her time with Absolute K9!

I am so thankful for Sean and Amanda. I brought my working line German Shepherd here for training many years ago after going to many other trainers before and feeling frustrated and lost with what I was learning. Both Sean and Amanda care deeply about setting you up for success with your dog. And unfortunately after we lost our dog this past year, we were able to get a dog through them and they have been there through the whole process of integrating him to our family. They bring a much different perspective of working along side your dog which made sense to me. Thanks again to the two of you and of course Jess!

I couldn’t be more thrilled to recommend Absolute K-9! From the very beginning, Amanda was incredibly supportive, patient, and knowledgeable. This was especially important for us as first-time dog owners with lots of questions. She guided us through the entire process with care and confidence, and I felt completely at ease knowing my family’s future puppy was in such capable hands. The puppy we brought home last fall has been an absolute joy. She’s sweet, social, and beautifully well-mannered—everyone who meets her falls in love. Thanks to Amanda’s early training, socialization, and careful temperament matching, she came to us already sleeping through the night in her crate, understanding key commands, easy to walk on a leash, and fully potty trained. Most importantly, the dog’s easygoing, affectionate personality is a perfect fit for my family—something I credit entirely to Amanda’s deep understanding of her dogs and her careful attention in getting to know me and my family as future owners. I’ve kept in touch with Amanda because she continues to be a generous and trusted resource. She and Sean clearly care deeply about the wellbeing of their dogs and the families they go to. I wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend Absolute K-9, Amanda and Sean, and their incredible puppies. Our experience has been nothing short of outstanding.
