FirstBarkWe have been so impressed with Valor K9. We did a Puppy Board & Train and a good dog Board & Train and some private lessons. Our cute pup has a lot of attitude but has learned some manners :-) The whole team is great and we loved knowing she’s in safe hands with Lindsay when we’ve gone out of town

We used them for training and also use Lindsay for overnight stays. We are at ease leaving our dog with Lindsay and valor k9!
We had our dog Luna trained by Taya for both the puppy and adult training and both times were an amazing experience. Luna loves Taya and Taya did an amazing job with Luna. She was amazing after the puppy training and even more so now after the adult training. Taya always kept us updated with photos or videos and overall we couldn’t recommend valor k9 and specifically Taya more.
Taya was our service dog trainer this past month and we couldn’t be happier. She did a wonderful job keeping us updated, showing her progress and helping us understand how to continue the work. Thanks so much Taya!

I enrolled my Australian Shepherd, Beaux, with Valor K9 Academy about a year ago to clean up his service dog work and master some more tasks; without a doubt he is a much more well rounded dog and a better worker for me because of the hard work and dedication our amazing trainer, Taya, as put into both him and I. I have tried many different trainers over the years, both for service dog work and for basic/advanced obedience, and I can confidently say that Taya has by far been the best yet. Her work ethic, her drive, her attention to details and requests, and personality, by far put her above the rest. I cannot recommend Taya and Valor K9 Academy enough.
