We are overjoyed with our new pup and can't thank Petr enough for making sure we found the right fit for our family. We had a particular dog in mind initially and he helped us understand what would best fit our needs and we are so glad we listened. They do look out for the dog's best interest as well. Molly was so helpful during our visit and facilitated an appointment time that was convenient for us. Tonda is so playful, loving and well mannered. We look forward to many more years with him, thank you K9 Specialist!

Amazing. I am 62 and I got my 1st German shepherd at 7 years old and have only gone 5 without one . I never got them trained as well as Leo is . K-9 are professionals at training, so I now have a happy obedient friend that is so easy to keep under control. Thanks K=9 .

We met Molly at K9 specialists in Ocala when looking for a trainer for our doberman puppy. Molly is a very knowledgeable and professional trainer. She bonded with our dog immediately and has been able to teach us how to implement the many important techniques she has used during “puppy boot camp” that has made our dog so well behaved. We have also used Molly’s services for one on one training which has been very beneficial as our dog continues to learn and grow. I would recommend Molly at K-9 Specialists in a heartbeat!

Molly is so knowledgeable about all aspects of dogs. Their training, health , diet and socialization. She always is professional and never stops smiling. She is also available to answer any questions you might have after the training session. She has done a great job with our dog and we plan on using her for more advanced training. Our dog absolutely loves Molly. You can tell she really enjoys what she is doing. Gary Miller
