Kindred K9 Academy

We went with the 3-week board-and-train program for our 8-month-old puppy, Millie, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! Andy was exceptional from start to finish. Before Millie even arrived, he called me to go over everything included in her training and really took the time to listen to my concerns and the areas I wanted her to improve on. Throughout her stay, Andy sent us daily updates, texts, and pictures, which we absolutely loved. It was so reassuring to see Millie’s progress along the way and know she was being so well cared for. When he dropped her off at our house, he went over everything with us and gave us all the tips, tricks, and guidance we need to help our sweet girl continue to succeed at home. We are so thankful to Andy and everyone who took such great care of our baby. The results have been amazing, and we would 1000/10 recommend Andy’s services to anyone looking for quality training and genuine care for their pup!

We had an amazing experience with Andy and Kindred K9 Academy! We enrolled our Goldendoodle in the two-week Puppy Head Start board and train program, and it exceeded our expectations. From day one, Andy was an excellent communicator. He took the time to explain his training philosophy and approach, answered all of our questions, and kept us updated throughout our puppy’s stay with regular communication and progress reports. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our puppy was in such capable hands. Since coming home, we’ve seen a huge improvement in our puppy’s behavior. Just as importantly, Andy gave us the knowledge, tools, and confidence to continue reinforcing the training at home, so we feel set up for long-term success. We truly can’t say enough good things about our experience with Andy and Kindred K9 Academy. If you’re looking for a trainer who genuinely cares about both your dog and your family, we highly recommend them!

Andy is so knowledgeable and a wonderful trainer. We truly can’t say enough good things about our experience with the two-week board and train program! Before training, our dog was constantly jumping on people, counter surfing for food, and was very mouthy with our young kids. We loved her, but we knew we needed help creating a calmer, safer home for our family. From the very beginning, we felt confident she was in the best hands. We received frequent updates, photos, and videos throughout the program, which gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to celebrate his progress along the way. The difference has been incredible. Her obedience and impulse control have improved so much, and she’s become a calmer, more enjoyable member of our family. We especially appreciated the balanced training approach that combined positive reinforcement with clear expectations and appropriate consequences. It was obvious that every decision was made with our dog’s success in mind. The support didn’t end when the program did, either. We left feeling equipped with the knowledge and tools to continue her training at home, and that’s made all the difference. We’re so thankful for the care, patience, and dedication that went into helping our dog—and our family. We wholeheartedly recommend this program to anyone looking for real, lasting results!
