What people have asked about this business.

Do you board aggressive dogs? He is an Australian Shepard and just gets nervous & scared.

We have an aggressive dog, they boarded him and he did great.

We do and our rate for boarding is $30 per night. We have private kennels and we can let him/her out alone. Thanks, Chris

Question on Google
do you use e collors

Hi Jennifer, yes we use e-collars, leash training, treat training, and verbal praise to teach the dogs boundaries and commands. My program is also based on the dogs having fun during training, while remaining focussed. Thanks for your question.

Someone mentioned a name like Good earth dog training but I can’t seem to find anything listed like that. A gal does individual training, does anyone have any suggestions? thanks

Chris and crew at UK9 are my go to.

I'm unfamiliar, BUT I can tell you that Chris and Universityk9 does great. I did a 2week board and train first my blue heeler puppy who after moving was showing signs of aggression towards and older sickly dog, and was terrible at walking on and off leash. After working with Chris, it was almost like night and day. I highly recommend Universityk9.

I'm writing this review in regard to the two week board and train. First off, Chris is extremely accommodating. He was able to get me in asap to address a few concerns I had with my dog, Charlie. Charlie was anxious, aggressive towards strangers, and lacked basic obedience among a few other things. I tried training him myself, but our current living environment proved to be too overwhelming for Charlie and I needed a quick fix to control Charlie's behavioral issues. I'm happy to say with the training Charlie received and the guidance Chris gave me, Charlie is more confident and relaxed around strangers. (as a lab should be!) While Charlie still shows some anxious behavior on walks, his self-control is leaps ahead of where he used to be, and seems to get better each time I walk him. I can even let him out on my porch without him barking at my neighbors, and the various sounds in my apartment building don't bother him a bit either, which (was) a huge problem for me. Overall, what UniversityK9 was able to accomplish in two weeks is pretty much what I had hoped, and I'm honestly astounded how quickly a dog can change in two weeks. I could tell Charlie had a blast while he was there, and was definitely in great hands. I highly recommend this place if you're on either a budget or a tight schedule (or both like me!).

Our family had an amazing experience with Chris and his staff for our last two puppies. He trained our first one and she was amazing and well behaved her whole life.. our next pup is a husky and she came home well trained but regressed a bit so she went back for remedial training.. has been a wonderful well behaved doggo since. I recommend Chris to all of my friends.

Chris and his Team are a God send for us and our 53 pound dog that pulled us everywhere on the leash as she would chase cats or squirrels, we felt we had no control of the situation😱. Our dog wouldn’t let us answer our own door because of her barking and excitement it would take forever to be able to open the door. She would jump all over us and other people due to excitement. We couldn’t stop it. After Chris and his great Team were done Training our dog Brandy. She has become a much calmer dog. Through Chris and his professional training She NOW responds to commands that WE GIVE HER! Pure delight for us.She is not jumping onto us anymore she does not run to the door barking, SHE DOES NOT CHASE CATS OR SQUIRRELS. She leaves them COMPLETELY ALONE on our command‼️ She comes when she’s called‼️‼️ KUDOS AND A BIG THANK YOU TO CHRIS AND HIS TEAM‼️

This place is absolutely incredible! We took a chance with our girl and weren’t sure what to expect, but I have to say we are blown away. Roxy came back a different dog as far as her behavior. Still our sweet and loving girl, but SO much more obedient. She also came back more calm and confident. It is pretty amazing! A HUGE thank you to Chris and his staff. We appreciate what you did for us and will be referring you to anyone in need of dog training!
