Ridgeside K9 Tampa

We couldn't be happier with the result from the 3 week board & train with Ridgeside K9 Tampa! Before training, our golden retriever (Yeti) wouldn't calm down no matter how many activities we tried to do with him. He was constantly jumping on people and impossible to walk on a leash. Kellen took the time to work with Yeti on specific behaviors to fit the needs of our family. He came home and not only is he much more well behaved all around, but Kellen gave us the tools to apply the training at home and it has made a world of difference. Kellen was super communicative before, during and after training to answer any questions we had. We highly recommend board & train with Ridgeside K9 Tampa, it's well worth the investment and has made for a happier dog and family all around!

Kellen Zanandrie was amazing to work with. He really went over the in-outs as to why my Doberman (Royce) was behaving the way he was and explained how he was going to break him from that behavior. Kellen communicated with me every single day for 3 weeks and updated me his progression throughout that time. The day Royce came home there was a clear difference in his focus and my ability to have his attention. I have so much more confidence now while I handle my boy and it couldn’t have happened without Kellen. Thank you so much for all the hard work!

We had a great experience with them. We sent our puppy to Kellen for two weeks and could definitely tell a difference when we got him back. The best part was the place command for sure. He stays on his mat until I tell him to get off. He also sent great videos and pictures and I could tell my puppy was still having fun while being trained. I will probably send him back again when he’s a little older to get even better but it was a great start for my 4 month old dog 😊

Such a pleasurable and rewarding experience. Kellen trained both my dogs (german shepherd and a pointer mix), my german was super rambunctious, lacked a lot of patience, and had no socialization skills. She’s now ready to work at all moments, calm, and responds excellent to commands. Prior to this experience I wouldn’t dare take her in public due to her being an absolute menace, now i’m proud to have my shepherd out and about with me. My pointer also lacked patience and had no desire to obey but to instead do as she wished at all moments. Now she’s more than happy to obey and is an absolute pleasure to be with me. Another great thing about Kellen is kept me update constantly, not a day passed with an update and a video/picture to prove that the dogs were doing well. I also really appreciated the home lesson he did with me as it was detailed and gave for the opportunity to ask questions and go over anything i didn’t understand. highly recommend Ridgeside K9
