Wilderness training with Custom K-9 gave me confidence in learning how to handle tough situations and enjoy the positive moments. The weekend reset my relationship with my pup and myself! The personal attention and patience made me feel confident to try, fail, try again and again. By the end of the weekend, I was rejuvenated after 2 COVID years attached to my computer and ready to explore! I can't wait to do another session.

These two know what they’re doing. I saw a big change in my dog right away because he knew what I wanted during heel. I have a reactive dog and was a little desperate. now I can communicate quickly what I need from him. My life and his are much better now. Highly recommend!

AMAZING at both the dog and human training.
We noticed a difference immediately with our 6mo old puppy and now we get compliments regularly on how well behaved he is (he is 8mo old now)
We, our puppy’s humans, don’t learn as quickly as he does and Kendall and Chandler are as adept training the humans as they are the dogs.
We are working with them privately as well as in the weekly group class and are so happy with our decision to train with them.
Note: we also really like them as people too 😀

Kendall and Chandler are a great couple Duo! They have been fantastic I can't speak anymore highly of them. What they have done with help training us and training our dog Lucy have been amazing. They are fun down to earth and very professional. We just love them and got so lucky to have them help us.

Kendal and Chandler have been wonderful teaching our dog Melly obedience and learning how to get along better with our several other pets.
