K9 Team Training

Samantha and K9 are the best trainers anywhere around - hands down. I’ve been in the dog training world for over 30 years and worked with many trainers across the United States. when I met and worked with Samantha, I was at ease. We finally found our person. As Samantha teaches us, dogs are just being dogs. Most of what we’re working on is how we humans Can support them and give them clear, healthy boundaries. And in just six sessions, our highly anxious rescue, quickly became the most well-behaved, happy, calm dog around! We not only have the best behaved dog in our entire town with an almost perfect recall off leash, but will we will be singing Samantha‘s praises and keep coming back to her for future training!. Next on our list is agility! Her property is amazing - they have everything

Samantha is a fantastic trainer. She's done wonders with our wild and crazy Maisy. We were truly overwhelmed with our Bernese Mountain Dog puppy and Samantha has given us the tools that help enormously. She and TJ run a terrific boarding biz as well. We leave Maisy with them and never worry in the least. Maisy LOVES them! We're so glad we found K9!

We have been boarding our dogs with Sam at K9 team training for the last 5 years. She has helped or family with dogs ranging from puppy to elderly and even one who loves people but doesn’t always love other dogs. They have been absolutely amazing. Our dogs come back happy and exhausted from playing but more importantly they’re safe and loved when we’re not with them. I can’t recommend them highly enough!

Our GSD puppy Rayna attended the 3 week Dream Dog training program and we could not be happier. Samantha was professional, responsive and reassuring throughout the process. Our Rayna is now listening, healing and just delightful. Recently we had a minor setback with leash frustration but I reached out to Samantha and she guided us through what to do. Happy to say Rayna and I are both enjoying our leash walks and she’s living her best dog life! Thank you K9 Team Training!

What a life-saver Samantha is! We got a rescue dog last a bit over a year ago and it quickly became clear that Monte was reactive to all wildlife (tricky when you live in the country) and to other dogs. He was also a runner and would bolt out the door. Samantha said that it would probably take 8 lessons so train him and it actually took 7. She taught us basic commands and then slowly introduced Monte to her 3 dogs. By the last lesson, she had us walking around her property with Monte off-leash and we even walked him by her chicken coop. We just couldn’t believe it. And he has continued to make amazing progress ever since. He can be off-leash on our property and while he’s still not completely excited to meet other dogs, he is not at all aggressive and he is definitely learning how
