Kansas City K9 Academy is different from other trainers in the Pleasant Hill area - Ryan's methods don't rely on cruelty, water torture, rolling cages or generally scaring dogs. It's just solid, mindful training from an expert and we are very happy to have found him for our doggos.

Ryan did an amazing job with Zak, our German Shepherd puppy. We had 2 weeks of sessions and the results were phenomenal. If you're wanting a top of the line trainer, then Ryan is the man. A+++++++

We wouldn’t trust just anyone with our Sweet Pup Larry. After our free consultation with Ryan from KC K9 Academy my husband and I knew he had our pups best interest at heart. Larry spend two weeks KC K9 Academy and came back the same sweet Larry but with a lot of command knowledge that we still use today. Ryan meets you where you’re at with your dog and as an owner. We appreciate all the work Ryan put into our little rescue pup Larry!

We are very pleased with the training our dog received. He’s older (age 9) and we were concerned he wouldn’t respond well. However, he did!! He is more calm, listens to the commands and is more responsive. Teaching us how to maintain consistency, the commands and break our old habits was very helpful also. Thank you!!
