Signature K9 Training Academy

We have a beautiful Labrador who was just shy of 1 years old when we reached out to Daniel at Signature K9. While she was loving and familiar with small commands, we were struggling to keep her from running wild, (sometimes right out the front door), eating anything in sight, and jumping all over the kids. The consultation alone with Daniel and team opened our eyes to understand - we were the problem: Daniel helped us understand while we used physical boundaries for her, we lacked the principles of respect and understanding communication with Cocoa. We were inconsistent on rule setting and this further unintentionally allowed her the freedom to “run” the house vs coexisting. Together we agreed on the 4 week boarding program Daniel and team offered. Every week we attended one hour training sessions as a family to see not just the progress that Cocoa was making, but more importantly Daniel taught us how. We are 3 months post training Cocoa - Daniel continues to follow up with us and is quick to not only answer any questions that we have, but continues to provide honest feedback and training tips, whether that be for Cocoa or for us! Even after some bumps on our part, we are able to productively not just coexist with Cocoa, but also enjoy the love we have for each other more peacefully - even when the kids are running wild around her now!

We just finished a 3 week training with our Rottweiler and we are so impressed with the results. We currently have a newborn at home, and after training I feel so much more at ease when my dog and baby are in the same room together. I can’t recommend Daniel enough. He is a joy to meet with, very informative and knows his stuff! He not only trains the dog, he trains YOU. Best investment we made this year. Do yourself a favor and book the training, you won’t regret it.

UPDATE: Daniel came to the house today for his post training evaluation as promised. Our dogs are doing great. Daniel was able to answer all of our questions and relieve any anxiety that we had going forward. What a journey this has been-- until we met Daniel. We were willing to do anything just to have our three dogs together again. I'm including a picture of what my world is now thanks to Daniel. I wish we would have found him when a year ago! I called Daniel after struggling with 2 of my 3 boxers fighting at home, barking at the door, jumping on people, etc. Daniel took both of the boys for a 4 weeks behavior modification training. Both boys have been home for almost 2 weeks and are doing great. Today we had 20 plus people here for Thanksgiving and I was able to take turns putting boys in place with company and the doorbell ringing. What a difference! I'm truly blown away. Friends were impressed with the change. Thanks Daniel!

I have been working with Signature K9/Daniel to train my one year-old Belgian Malinois. The transformation Daniel was able to achieve with me/my dog is incredible. Daniels knowledge, instruction, patience, and constructive criticism made the biggest difference with allowing knowledge retention for both of us. I will continue to utilize Daniel in the future and look forward to seeing my dogs full potential.

Highly recommend Daniel & his team at Signature K9 for anyone looking to strengthen the relationship between them and their dog. A professional and educational experience that will give you insights on the how's and why's of your dogs behavior, with plenty of opportunity to ask questions along the way. I was nervous to board & train, but immediately after the consult I knew that we came to the right place. Daniel taught us how we played a part in our dogs behavior, and in a few short weeks, he completely changed our outlook and our dog came home with a new foundation for us to build up on! Be prepared to understand your dog on a new level when done with your training, it will be worth it!
