We had a great experience with Blackwater K9! We have a Standard Poodle named Natalia, and she was only 4 months old when we dropped her off. We chose them because of their videos and the fact that they train police dogs, which gave us a lot of confidence. Natalia came home calm, focused, and still the same sweet, playful puppy. She doesn’t nip at our kids anymore, walks great on a leash, and is much easier to handle. The team also spent time teaching us how to reinforce the training at home, which we really appreciated. If we ever get another Standard Poodle, we’ll definitely bring him or her here. We’ll also be using Blackwater K9 for boarding when we travel. Highly recommend! Kyle & Angelica Anderson
Great people, great trainers. I love working with them. They tailor the training to me and my dog and make sure I understand everything. My dog Blu and I love it at Blackwater K9
These people are totally awesome and got my dogs very well trained.
Blackwater was amazing through the whole process. The people, the passion and the knowledge can’t be beat. They really got my boy Tank on the right track. Looking forward to continuing not only Tank’s work but mine as well.
