STK9 trained our rescue (Phoenix) before we adopted him. He had completed their on-leash obedience program. Having completed this program it definitely helped him transition into an at home environment. Over the past month his personality has really shown through and he has learned to trust us way more than when we first met him. We definitely believe training helped with that and highly recommend STK9’s programs for people who are looking to adopt dogs that have an unknown history. Here’s a pic of Phoenix and his brother all dressed up for Halloween.

We took Kona to be trained with DJ and what a difference! Instead of fighting him pulling on walks and being stubborn about coming inside after walks, it is now a breeze. He is now the dog we were hoping to have. Thank you to the STK9 team! Would highly recommend to anyone who wants a more obedient and loving dog!

I have nothing but the best to say about STK9! They made all the difference for Phoenix, making our "afraid of the World" rescue dog find his confidence and realize his own potential.
DJ went above and beyond to help us get him ready and settled in his new home. I could have never done this for him without you.
10 stars!

STK9 Training company is absolutely wonderful. We utilized their services for Clover, our Great Pyrenees/ lab x who is in need of behavior modification for anxiety with strangers and increased obedience. Clover did the board and train program and we could not be more pleased with the results. We can’t believe what she learned in such a short time! We are continuing to work with her developing the new skills with ongoing support from her trainer DJ. DJ responds to any questions we have along the way and offers ongoing support. I truly can’t believe what she accomplished with our pooch. STK9 is truly the best. They are incredibly knowledgeable, honest and caring. Clover is now enjoying going back to play at the Pasadena Pet Motel and seeing her trainers. I can’t say enough good things about our experience. Thanks for all your help, especially Sam and DJ!

My husband and I have worked with both Joe and Matt for training with our GSD, Maverick. Joe has been a wonderful resource and great trainer for obedience and behavior issues. He always has a solution for the questions/concerns that we have and does an excellent job explaining techniques. Matt has been training Maverick for bite work. He has a well thought out and planned method and is always aware of keeping Maverick safe during training. Maverick loves this activity! We highly recommend STK( Training company!!
