We had a rescue pitbull that couldn't be around other dogs. Every walk was a battle. We dropped her off for a week of training, and she's a different dog. Walks are enjoyable, she can be around other dogs without issue. These guys are great. They were a fraction of the price from other trainers and the quality was superior. We can't recommend them enough.

Hours for drop in training puppies
You can call and work out a time. I drop my dog off before they open at 9. They are pretty good about being flexible.

How old has to be the dog yo be training..?
That's probably about right. Give them a call. Depending on the size of dog and any problematic behavior, if applicable, they may ask u to come in for a free assessment before scheduling a dog in a class w other dogs.

Stay away from this place leave your dog you come back to find him like if it been abandoned, and living on the street for a month not to mention the stench of urine on his coat. These people are garbage.
My dog Whiskey seems to as well as can be expected being boarded here when I have to go out of town. Everyone is friendly and takes time to answer my questions. I am able to get an update on how Whiskey is doing while I'm gone. It's never fun to leave Whiskey behind but I feel good about boarding her at K-9. She's always happy and healthy when I pick her up.
Gary and Joe and team are the best ! I definitely would recommend you bringing your dog for obedience training,. They train your dog and you. A great family owned business that is the BEST !
I highly recommend K9 Guardians. They not only train your dog, but they train YOU how to continue to train your dog. We sent our 6 month old pit we rescued to the 7 day bootcamp with K9 and they did a great job. My dog now has obedience that he definitely did not have before. I will continue to bring my dog to them. Thank you to Gary, Ed, Joe & team!!
