We believe one size does not fit all. Our experienced trainer will evaluate both dog and owner and tailor a training program that not only addresses your issues and concerns but allows your dog to reach their full potential. We don't stop there. We also work with the owner to provide the support needed to ensure they have the confidence to maintain their pet's training going forward. We can help you start your new puppy out right all the way to providing on and off leash obedience training utilizing our Two Week Board and Train program. We provide all the comfort of home during your dog's stay and your dog also learns good house manners. We believe in "No Dog Left Behind!"

When there are multiple trainers to choose from it can be overwhelming—look no further. Nikki is the real deal! She uses a variety of methods and is open to finding what works for you and your dog, tailoring each session appropriately. She takes the time to explain everything clearly, is patient and an all around great person to work with. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for obedience training, help with behavioral issues, or support of any sort!

As the Director of Animal Programs at Wags and Walks Nashville, a local dog rescue, I cannot recommend Nikki enough. She has worked alongside our rescue for over a year and I have watched her help transform so many human handlers, adopters, fosters, and dogs. She is caring, thoughtful, incredibly smart, and quite literally a lifesaver to our organization and the dogs she helps. I have also worked with her for some support for my personal dogs and it was 12/10 - solutions were found and she taught me how to handle issues on my own as well as on how to progress and move forward. She's the best of the best and we are so lucky to have her in our area!!!!

We would give a 20 star review if we could! Nikki is a miracle worker. Nikki transformed the behavior of our 5 yr old dog as well as our new puppy. We now have a calm household and confidence with them out in public. You get your moneys worth and then some with the incredible follow through post program and open communication. We cannot recommend Always Training K9s enough.

Nikki is amazing. Maggie our 16month old Texas Heeler is very anxious and would not potty outside(she only used a potty pad inside). Maggie was also very reactive when we had family in the home. We worried about Maggie nipping our 5 year old granddaughter. We contacted Nikki and she listened to our concerns gave us some suggestions and we agreed to let her train Maggie for 2 weeks. Maggie is still a nervous girl but Nikki has worked a miracle !!! She potties outside!!! And we have structure and tools to use to keep Maggie and our granddaughter safe! I highly recommend Nikki to anyone struggling with a “bad” dog.
