What 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.

We have been sending our almost-2 year old lab, Ozzie here for the last 2 months. He has been in k9 camp with Carleena & we are completely blown away by how helpful Carleena has been! Ozzie had training as a pup and knows his commands, is overall a good boy, but his kryptonite is another dog nearby - he forgets all his training and just wants to play - screeching on a leash, pulling, whining, ignoring recall. Carleena has improved this behavior 10-fold. After our original package of camp days we went in for a 1:1 training and we were so happy to see Ozzie ignore the dog distractions on a leash for us. Carleena was patient, informative, and so explanatory during the session. We have also seen improvements at home in the house with our cat, the more we practice what he learns at camp, the more chill he is in the house…and the cat is more open to hanging in the same area now. We signed up for another package of camp classes with Carleena & are super excited to see what else they’re able to accomplish together. While we haven’t worked with all the other trainers 1:1, everyone seems so pleasant at drop off & they’re always excited to see Ozzie in the morning, which makes leaving him for the day a little easier. And hearing Karen says “Ozzie!!!” every morning is the warm welcome he looks forward to It’s clear the staff at K9 Top Performance care about Ozzie’s success and are not just doing a job, selling packages. Thanks K9 team!

I can’t speak highly enough about K9 Top Performance! The staff is so sweet and knowledgeable. My Goldendoodle puppy worked with Nick for a few weeks and then we did a one-on-one training and I’m so happy with the results. Nick is patient, consistent and so good with dogs. Definitely recommend!

Nick is a great trainer. He worked wonders with my puppy.

We had an excellent experience at K9TopPerformance. Our puppy became so much more manageable. She was a good puppy to begin with but there were a few things we just couldn’t quite get her to do. Carlena gave her the few skills we just hadn’t mastered. We practice every day for 15 minutes and Molly Mae is doing what we want her to do. A big thank you to all the staff that were constantly in communication with us and especially so nice to Molly Mae.

I was told under new ownership. Tried to call multiple times. No response. Would I put a dog somewhere with no response NO
