We highly recommend Calming K9 and specifically, Carl. Our dogs, Maggie and Poppy, have had some issues with resource guarding and aggression. Carl has helped teach us and our dogs how to navigate difficult situations. He has been very responsive and eager to help us and our dogs. We really appreciate Carl and Calming K9 for the assistance and the training was 100% worth it.

This place was so welcoming and reassuring throughout the process. I have a 3 year old hound who was leash reactive and would sometimes redirect onto myself. David did a great job on teaching me commands and how to work with my dog that is extremely fearful and nervous to overcome it. It is definitely a long process and big lifestyle changes initially, but over the 4 weeks my dog has been able to walk without barking and lunging towards other dogs, have better recall, and continued success with less stress not being right by my side. I would highly recommend checking them out!

We had a great experience with Carl from Calm K9. From the beginning, he was flexible with our tough schedules, and made a serious effort to make sure this program worked. Each week we saw huge improvements with our dog, and look forward to keeping our training going with her. Thank you again to Carl and Calm K9 for the support. Highly recommend!

David and Carl are both GREAT with our rowdy rottie! He's so calm with them. They not only taught him to react on command but also gave us the tools and tips to train at home and reinforce the lessons he's been taught. Now walks are less worrisome and he listens on first command. 10/10 I highly recommend Calm K9!!!!
