My husband and I have gone through 3 different trainers. All they did was go over the basics. However, that was not the issue. I have 3 pitbulls and one started attacking mine out of no where. Sarah came out and did the initial assessment with us. Yes they use pronged collars and e collars. They also show you how to properly use them even if you are familiar with either. Sara off the bat was very calm when she came in. She is very thorough in explaining and answering any questions. It has helped me to immensely we are finely seeing good behavior and improvement. Totally worth getting their help. So glad I found them online.

We finished today our boot camp for our two German Shepards!! This program has been a life changer for us, before our dogs were out of control and we thought there was nothing we could do about it. One of dogs had really bad separation anxiety and would chew and destroy our furniture when we were gone, thanks to this training program she is a much confident and happy dog. I would recommend anyone who needs this program is affordable effective. Thank you David for helping us!

Calm K9Training changed the game for us and our pups in our new RVA homestead! Our dogs Penny & Charlie were both relatively new (& very loved!) rescue pups before we moved to Richmond which caused anxiety, aggression issues and general mischievous tendencies. Ashley to the rescue! She was so patient with us (because this is mostly people training) and our pups. We now enjoy walks in public, a LOT more manners and even off-leash hikes and play time. We would HIGHLY recommended calm K9Training- it is well worth the cost!

My fiance and I contacted Calm K9 Training in regards to our 3 1/2 year old male lab. We received a quick response and in no time, we had an appointment with Ashley to evaluate Dixon. Ashley came to our home and recommended the Basic Bootcamp training for Dixon. We started as soon as we could! Within four weeks, Ashley provided the knowledge and tools to us to have Dixon trained into a well mannered dog. We are now able to take him into public/stores, walk him on a leash without getting dragged down the road, he stays when told even if the doorbell rings and SO MUCH MORE! Ashley was seriously a life saver for us! I highly recommend her. She was always on time to each session, explained everything thoroughly and always made sure she had all of our questions answered before leaving. Ashley is the best and we will always recommend her to anyone in desperate need like we were!!

My dog struggles with dog-dog aggression. She's been to classes, intensive in home training, and even boot camp. Calm K9 helped her learn to manage her issues effectively. She is even able to go to the dog park now!
