Key2K9 Dog Training & Behavior, LLC

My newly adopted rescue dog and I just completed Ali’s introductory level course and the results have been absolutely incredible! My sweet guy has made such great progress with leash walking, sit/stay commands, place training, and long line training. It is really amazing how far he has come & the progress he has made in just a couple of months working with Key2K9. My pup & I have definitely put in the work, but Ali ‘s expert guidance really helped me to better understand my communication with him and it’s really helped us bond as well. She broke each of the training tools down for me very clearly, step-by-step, and showed me how to layer on to make progress. 10/10, excellent experience! Highly recommend to anyone with a newly adopted dog, or even an old dog who needs to learn some new tricks!

Ali is an outstanding trainer, and our female Australian Shepherd absolutely adored her! We had such a positive experience during our puppy obedience training sessions, and Ali made the learning process fun, engaging, and highly effective. Her patience and expertise in working with young dogs helped us see real progress, and we enjoyed every moment of the training. We’re already looking forward to more sessions with Ali to continue building on what we’ve learned. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled, compassionate trainer!

Knox graduated his puppy class! For any of my local friends that ever add a dog to their family or currently have one that requires training, please reach out to Key2K9 Dog Training and Behavior LLC. I cannot say enough about the owner and trainer, Ali. Knox was a handful when we first got him and while we read a lot about the breed before adopting/rescuing him- there was so much more to learn about him. From our first zoom meeting with her- she gave us an abundance of helpful information and training tips which worked immediately. From the individual and group training sessions to her nuggets of knowledge- he is the best version of himself and we’re a better family to him. After 6 weeks of training he is now awesome off leash, has excellent recall, knows a plethora of commands like the ever important “place” and loves hugs and running off leash to play with his other dog buddies on the beach. He’s super friendly, social and is a pleasure to hangout with. And bonus, my mom can now watch him and walk him when we’re away. Before Ali- he jumped on everyone and loved to bite, he was crazy on the leash and didn’t know any commands. He was a completely untrained and sheltered puppy with alpha tendencies and potential aggression. He didn’t really care to be loved on or cuddled- through no fault of his own. While he was always a rad dog, he is now the raddest. More to learn and stay consistent with but he’s a quick learner and our trainer is always a phone call away. This kind of training is life changing- it also makes us better neighbors and community members. 💕🙌🏻🏅 🦮

I really enjoyed working with Ali, she was able to educate us on the specific breed characteristics of the dog we adopted, and provided very individualized training. As a mom, I needed to control the chaos of a new puppy and kids, and now I have the confidence to do that. She really has been the best decision we made since adopting Baxter. Her honesty, patience, and knowledge was so helpful and reassuring. I 100% recommend her services and stand behind that confidently. Thank you Ali!
