Lakota Creek Kennels

Our two dogs boarded at Lakota for 10+ nights over the holidays. During the stay, one of them developed an ear infection and needed treatment. Josh communicated every small step, took him to the vet, and kept up with care throughout the remainder of the stay. Communication was great and we experienced friendly and attentive staff that showed genuine care for the dogs and their safety. I would recommend Lakota to any family looking for experienced dog people with big hearts and pride in what they do.

Josh and the team at Lakota Creek Kennels are FANTASTIC! I enrolled Neo, my 6 month old Golden Retriever in the Legacy Program in March and it is worth every dime. With the Initial training he became a new dog. No change in personality, in fact even better, but his response to commands (I live on 7 acres so when he’s called in), walking on a leash and absolutely no jumping up and sure respecting guests at the front door. Josh is one of the kindest people you’ll meet and it’s easy to see he loves what he does. He just built brand new kennels for each dog and it is always super clean! Highly highly recommend!

Josh is the single best service dog trainer i have ever used, and considering that I own a pitbull rescue, and as such use a lot of different trainers, that is saying something. He is kind, compassionate, helpful where payment plans are needed and just an overall outstanding communicator and overall human being! I would recommend him to anyone within earshot! I cannot say enough what a wonderful person, breeder of K-9's and trainer he is. God speed Josh! It was an honor to work with you, and I do hope our paths cross again! 💯! Sincerely, Jen Edwards RN

Highly recommend! Josh and his team are exceptional!! They treated our Belgian Malinois, Ranger, as one of their own. We struggled to find a trainer that was personable and flexible. We met with Josh and decided the board and train would be the best answer for Ranger. We loved the pictures and videos that we received during the training process to see how Ranger was doing. Ranger has excelled in his behavior since his time with Josh. Josh also extended training to our home and to assist our daughters with Ranger. Plus a bonus is the boarding they offer when we need to go out of town. A++

Josh has been an invaluable resource every time I’ve come to him with dog training questions. Whether it’s behavioral challenges or fieldwork, he is exceptionally knowledgeable and well-versed in all aspects of training. He is always willing to help, and I trust his guidance thanks to the extensive courses he has completed, the certifications he’s earned, and—most importantly—the proven results reflected in his clients. I highly recommend Josh and Lakota Creek Kennels to anyone seeking reliable, skilled, and experienced support in their dog training journey!
