Action K9 Sports

Had such a great experience today with my ACD and Australian Kelpie. The staff were great and my dogs had a blast. Will definitely be back again.

What a great time! My Aussie is 5 and turns out it wasn’t for him! We brought him in and had a great experience. Unfortunately he didn’t have all the “tells” of being interested in herding but we learned a bunch about herding. Met great people. Our dog was just more interested in playing with other dogs or the people to car about livestock 😂 would definitely recommend taking your herding dog at least once! The trainer was patient and very knowledgeable.

Came here recently with some friends for an instinct test for our dogs. Our dogs had a great time and Sheridan was a great handler! However, we did see some things that made us very uncomfortable. There were many border collies kept in cages without access to water. At one point one border collie came up to our group and was pretty friendly. Then all of a sudden, this man (someone who works there and possibly has a British accent) starts dragging the dog through the air by holding its collar and brings it to his pick up truck. Then he started hitting the dog with his hand. This is not the kind of company I would want to support. I’m sorry I won’t be going back.

I have a working line GSD I originally wanted to do IGP with but I felt like she had more interested in herding. I was recommended this place by my breeder and I was blown away with how fun the initial experience (instinct test) was. Everyone there is knowledgeable about herding as they've got years of experience. My instructor/coach/mentor is Rich. He's the GSD guy and he's help me improve my relationship with my dog so much. Her obedience is a lot stronger and our relationship has blossomed. They also host trials every quarter and we managed to title this past October. I would say although my experience was really good, not every herding type dog will succeed here. Your dog needs to want to work with the sheep and you, for both of you to thrive in this environment. Do try it out as it h

Fabulous! Terry’s training expertise turned my 2 year old out of control Border Collie into a great dog. And yes, my dog and I have a great relationship as a result.
