In finding Kabler, I knew I found the right place for my young dog Jam to continue the training we started in Florida. David & Candy quickly assessed our needs. Jam improved lesson by lesson with Candy. Nick got us out to the park, and we gained confidence around other dogs at a distance. Great experience. Expert advice and training. Jam's skill level has grown so much. Highly recommended!

David and his crew are awesome! They are our go to for anything training related we need for our GSD twins. We’re new into sport dog so they are all so accommodating with all of our 1000 questions we have!
Our mutt is a Kabler graduate and we now wholeheartedly recommend the experience to others because it was truly transformative.
After five lessons my Teddy Roosevelt Terrier was dock diving and ready for competition! Lessons were so much fun, and the instructors were wonderful! They are very patient with the dogs. We are very lucky to have a place to train for dock diving here in Asheville.

Trusting my German Shepherd Lillie to Kabler School was the best decision I could have made for both of us. I am grateful for the incredible job they did. After losing my previous Shepherd, I adopted a 2 year old , female Shepherd with a wonderful personality, but no training or control at all. I was at the busiest time in my business and had no time to work with her. I decided to sent her to their 6 week in house program. Lillie came home happy, calm and obedient. Their follow up sessions quickly had us communicating and working together. I was able to integrate her into my home with my cat and other dogs with no problems. I can take her to my office at my business, Buckeye Kennels, and she can relax and greet clients, yet we can go outside, play, run and confidently go off leash safely. Kabler School and the wonderful staff understood my dog, her breed, her issues and potential. They set clear expectations for me and have been there every step of the way. I look forward to continuing our education as we work with them in the future. It was worth every penny.
