FirstBarkKenny transformed our little adopted dog Louise. He was punctual, flexible, kind and very informative. He knows what he is doing and has lots of experience. I thought some of our dog's behavior could not be corrected but he taught us practical methods that work. I'd recommend Kenny for all types of dogs!

About K9 Kenny
When you sign up your dog for training with K9Kenny, you are working with me. No assistant trainers who may not know your dog as well. No group classes where your dog may be too distracted to learn. Private fifty minute long lessons with Kenny working directly with you and your dog. I do all of my training out of my place in South Austin so I do not offer in-home training and I do not do Board and Train as well. Training done here will carry over to life at your home as well. We will work together to resolve any and all behavioral issues as well as to teach obedience.

We LOVED working with Kenny! I originally found him through Google reviews, and now that our baby has graduated, I can give a full review of my and my husband's experience. Not to brag or anything, but we brought our dog to Kenny because he had just about every bad habbit you can think of. He didn't listen, he jumped all over us, he guarded his food, and was horrible on a leash. We were at our wits end and just really needed the professional help, to train us and our Bailey. We knew from the first session that we chose the right man for the job. Kenney is so warm, patient, and most importantly, he really knows dogs. He took the time to understand us, our dynamic, and Bailey loved him instantly (but the treats might have helped 🤣). Over the 6 sessions we did, Bailey rapidly improved every time. Kenney was so helpful and always had a backup plan if Bailey was stubborn. He explained every step of the process and exactly what we needed to do to build on the training. If you are looking for the perfect trainer to help you and your family, Kenny is the man for the job. He's seen it all and has a funny story, and a solution, for everything. Thank you Kenny, you don't even know how much you've helped us.
Kenny was great and so patient! He works with both your dog and you to make sure you're both successful. Highly recommend!

Kenny is an amazing dog trainer. He’s super easy to communicate with and really flexible when it comes to scheduling, which I really appreciated. What I loved most was how he focused on what was most important to me and my dog, instead of following a strict, one-size-fits-all program. A heads-up: dog training isn’t just about your dog—it’s about you learning too! Kenny does a great job of helping you understand what you need to do to support your dog’s progress. If you’re looking for someone who’s knowledgeable, patient, and truly listens to what you need, I’d highly recommend Kenny. We’ve learned so much, and it’s made such a difference!

K9 Kenny is an absolute gem! From the moment we started working with him, his kindness and deep knowledge of dog training were evident. My puppy Glima and I saw incredible results on day one! Kenny helped us learn essential commands like sit, place, come, and many more that we now use daily. His approach was clear, effective, and tailored to our needs. Glima is more confident and well-behaved, and I'm thrilled with the progress we've made. If you're in Austin and need a fantastic dog trainer, K9 Kenny is the one to call. Highly recommend!
