PLAY! K9 Academy

I love Play! K9 Academy so much! My English lab Bodhi received his training from here and what an insane amount of improvement. He now walks on the leash, doesn’t jump out of the car as soon as I open the door, and has improved some behavior challenges. I’ve seen lots of progress. Bodhi also attends their Daycare and absolutely loves it there. He loves Nina and he has lots of doggie friends. I love that he gets so much exercise and I always know he’s safe and in good hands with Nina.

I cannot recommend PLAY! K9 Academy enough! Nina and Peyton have been absolutely invaluable in helping me train my young Malinois. I made the mistake of not setting proper boundaries early on, and my pup developed some bad habits. Thanks to Nina and Peyton, we’re now on the right track. What sets them apart is their ability to tailor their training methods to fit specific situations. For example, they taught me how to use play to drive engagement, which has been a game-changer. It’s clear they care deeply about dogs and are genuinely motivated by their passion, not just by profit. Their guidance has not only made my Mal happier and more confident in public but has also given me the tools to handle interactions with other dogs with much more confidence. While we’re still a work in progress, I always feel supported by Nina and Peyton. They’ve been with us every step of the way, and I’m so grateful for their expertise. If you’re looking for dedicated, compassionate trainers who genuinely want the best for you and your dog, PLAY! K9 Academy is the way to go!

If anyone needs assistance with training their 4 legged family member PLAY K9 Academy is incredible! They far exceeded expectations and they were so gracious and kind throughout the process. They recognized that it was challenging for us to be away and only check in so they sent tons of videos and photos and communicated extremely well. I cannot recommend them enough. The process has been truly life changing! I initially waited to leave a review to see if we would be able to consistently see the same results. I honestly forgot about it and it has been 2 months and we still are in this amazing place. So thankful!
