K-9 Specialist | Dog Trainer

William was our trainer for Max’s 14-week service dog program, and we are beyond grateful for his guidance. He is extremely knowledgeable and does a great job explaining how dogs think, learn, and what they truly need to succeed. I learned so much throughout this process and grew into a confident handler because of his coaching. Max now has excellent manners, and I can take him anywhere with confidence. The moment his vest goes on, he knows he’s in work mode. That foundation is a direct result of William’s expertise and dedication. We highly recommend him!

I can’t say enough great things about K9 Specialist Dog Training and our trainer, David. He has been working with my German Shepherd, Ace, since he was just a puppy, and now at 1 year old, the results are incredible. David is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and truly understands the breed. German Shepherds are smart and high-energy, and David knew exactly how to channel that energy into focus, obedience, and confidence. Ace is now well-behaved, responsive, and a joy to be around both at home and in public. What I appreciated most is how David not only trained Ace but also taught me how to properly communicate and work with my dog. The guidance, consistency, and professionalism made all the difference. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and delivers real results, I highl

I found the K9 Specialist Team through a quick Instagram search. After speaking with the owner, Dennis, he explained how their training process works and the different tiers they offer. I have a 1-year-old male mini dachshund named Oakley. After a biting incident, I realized I needed to hire a professional dog trainer to make sure it didn’t happen again. I was lucky enough to be paired with Darien, and I truly can’t say enough good things about him. From the very beginning, he was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and patient. He took the time to understand Oakley’s behavior and explained every step of the training process so I could continue reinforcing it at home. Darien worked with Oakley on key commands like sit, stay, and place, and most importantly helped address the biting b

We cannot recommend our dog trainer David enough! From the very beginning, he truly listened to all of our concerns and goals and took the time to understand exactly what we wanted for our dog. He guided us every step of the way and taught us how to properly care for and handle him with confidence. Thanks to his dedication, patience, and expertise, our dog has become the perfect service dog. Every time we bring him out in public, we receive an abundance of compliments on how well-behaved he is and how well he listens to our commands. It’s honestly a reflection of the incredible training and David gave us.

We started working with Diana when my English Cocker Spaniel was just 10 weeks old, and I honestly can’t imagine how I would have survived those early puppy months without her. Those weeks can feel overwhelming, and having Diana’s steady support—both in our weekly sessions and just a phone call away—made all the difference. She guided me with so much patience, care, and love, helping me course-correct behaviors early and giving me confidence when I needed it most. Now my dog is 6 months old, has graduated from the advanced basic program, and is constantly praised in public for how well-behaved he is. Every compliment feels like a reflection of the foundation Diana helped us build. I’m beyond grateful for everything she’s given us, and I truly recommend Diana and K-9 to anyone starting th
