Kabler School for Dogs is an amazing organization who personally tailors and supports families thoroughly through on-site classes, offsite private lessins, park group walks, hikes, and addtional group walks at random sites. We called Kabler after completing a trianing program at another facility which we felt did not support us. Kandi, Marz, Brandon, and Nick have ALL been exceptional and catered to our unique situation and needs. Our young GSD was a quick learner yet she had some leash reactivity. The Kabler team has supported us and encourgaged us to stay consistant and use the tools and training we all received.
Comparing Kabler to any other training program is apples to oranges. Yes the price seems steep. BUT, you get ongoing support and group walks, you get reinforcement, you get people who understand you, your family and dogs. Once you divide out the benefits this is the least expensive place by FAR!

I got my first Malinois from David 5 years ago, and had such an incredible time training with him. He’s so kind and an incredible trainer. I can’t wait to train my new pup with him!

I trained with David with my black German Shepherd and at 7 months he used an e collar on him and had it at a very high stim level . My dog is a very high driven dog and unfortunately by doing this multiple times my dog started reacting to me and other dogs when I used the e collar as I was taught to use it . It has caused me to be very afraid of my dog with anxiety and un needed stress. Fortunately I found a trainer and he has helped me and my dog work through this abuse . Strong drive dogs need to be trained properly. It's taken some time but now I have such a great relationship with my dog without an e collar and I trust him fully through the retraining process.

Our rat terrier Zack has been training at Kabler with Bennett since he was ten weeks old. Rat terriers are energetic, somewhat stubborn and sensitive dogs so it is really important to have a good training foundation and Kabler did that for us! We really liked how comprehensive the training was for both Zack and for us, his family. We had to demonstrate that we understood what the commands were, how to respond and we all got homework for the week after each lesson. Now, at 10.5 months old, Zack sits, stays, lies down, walks very nicely on a lead and responds really well to recall command. We couldn't be more pleased!
