The staff at K9 is extremely knowledgeable and very hands on. I’ve had my bird dog puppy working with them since April and when we’re in the field he listens to my commands and is extremely obedient, in large part to their training!

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Is it possible to do classes at this facility as opposed to k9 camp? I found out my gsd puppy has a couple different heart ailments that I'd feel better being at a class with him?
I'm extremely happy with the treatment I've received and my dog. My dog is super excited to go here. Everyone is nice. They do offer just classes. Give them a call and they will go over the options. I did a few with my Mal when he was a puppy.

K9 Performance; Nick, Karen are part of my family now. They have brought my "Precious" from the shy little puppy to an amazing doggie. We passed our Canine Good Citizen - all because of Nick's training. I'll post some photos here later of us all. I am just so proud of them & everything they've done for Precious. They love each doggy in their care. They devote themselves to making each doggy the best doggy they can be. I can't say enough. It's been life changing for me. / Allison & Precious with love.
My dog has been going to K-9 Top Performance since he was a puppy. He gets so excited to go to "school" He comes home exhausted and happy. The people there are really great, and you can tell that they really love each and every dog (especially mine)

We have had an amazing experience at K9 so far. We have an 11-month old Swissy who has been working with Carleena in the K9 Camp and the progress we’ve seen with him after a short time is incredible! We also have a Frenchie who spends a couple days a week in the daycare program, which she loves. Both dogs have boarded for multiple nights and that experience was great as well. Karen, at the front desk, is super responsive and helpful whenever we need anything, plans change, etc. It’s obvious that they all care about the dogs and try to do what’s best for them. Prior to K9 we used other places around here and I can’t imagine ever going back to them - that’s how happy we are with K9!
Very good place to go. I see a big improvement since day one!
