I cannot begin to say enough kind words about the folks at K9Aholics. We took our 2 year old pittie mix for board and train. He was a completely new dog after the 3 week training. He was calmer and more well behaved. We felt safe taking him with us out again! Haleigh made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. I loved the personalized touch of getting picture, video and written updates. We loved Haleigh so much she is now known as “Aunt Haleigh.” The whole team was truly amazing. I couldn’t recommend this place more!

Took our a little over 4 months old mini schnauzer to their puppy university. Basically 2 weeks at their location. It was tough but our puppy was in great hands! Huge difference in her behavior from before to after. No more trying to strangle herself on her leash like a crazed lunatic! Walks with manners now. Jordon and Haleigh were terrific! Puppy, actually listens to commands like sit, stay, down and maintains the position. Absolutely sets her up for success with a solid foundation. Had a follow up call to address some questions and had a follow up in home visit about 6 weeks after she came home, which is part of the program. The key as with any dog training, is to maintain consistency at home with the training provided! Makes all the difference! Thank you Jordon and Haleigh!

K9aholics is fantastic! Courtney has done an amazing job with our medium Goldendoodle. She has worked with her on two occasions with board and train, for puppy training then e-collar. I can honestly say that it is well worth the time and investment to get a properly trained pup- we can now enjoy walks, hikes, day trips and outings with her. The crate training was great too, she sleeps through the night in her crate every night. Such a blessing thank you so much Courtney!!

I will recommend them for any training whether basic or specific,they treat my pup like theirs, easy to contact, always quick to respond and amazing instruction for the dog and the owner. JJ loves everyone there and they love him and it shows. In only a short week or 2 JJ was more confident which helped him be less defensive. We have 4 other pups and JJ was not so confident which made him defensive alot but already he is settling into his new space as a confident pup enjoying his best life with structure and more comfortable every day. Can't say enough good things about this group. From the head trainers all the way to the newest member here it feels like we have known each other our whole lives. Too many names and great things to say about everyone to fit it in here. I just feel so blessed to have found them and their love for others animals is unmatched in my eyes. Oh and we get daily reports,videos and photos of JJ'S day. When we leave him here we know he is coming home happy and has been instructed and loved the whole time. He is a new pup and we are new dog parents because of these amazing people. CAM you are doing something magical here. Keep it up🙏🙏❤️🐾🐾
