MLK9 Dog Training

We are so grateful for Andy! Our boy Brooks started showing signs of aggression around one year old, mostly seeming to stem from fear and uncertainty. He's a bully mix so we knew we had to get control of him before he realized his full strength. He was fine on his own but pulled constantly on the leash if we walked him with our other two dogs, tried to fence-fight with our neighbor's dogs, and growled and barked at just about anyone and anything, including his own people if they walked downstairs too quickly or got too loud. After four weeks of board and train with Andy, Brooks came back to us with a whole new attitude... in the best possible way! He's still our sweet goofy boy who loves his chew toys, but he also actually LISTENS. Andy warned us Brooks would test us once he got home, and

I was definitely hesitant to leave my 8 month old boxer puppy for three weeks but I’m glad I did! She came back a different girl. She was so much more calm and she had manners! Andy and his team were great with her. More importantly, he tolerated me. I was pretty much a basket case with her gone but he was great reassuring me that she was ok and getting along well. He sent videos every week of her progress and took the time to answer my questions. I am very pleased with her progress and I look forward to working with him again on the next steps of her journey. Thank you Andy for all that you did to help her and I work better together.

Thanks to MLK9 I now have an angel dog. I wish I could add videos to show the difference in his behaviors. My 1.5 year old dog did the 3 week program. I am a medical student so forking up the cash wasn’t something I was taking lightly. I can whole heartedly say it was worth every penny. I will definitely be taking him back for more advanced training! I can’t imagine what he will be capable of now that he has the basics down! EVERYTHING is so much easier now. It’s only been a few days since I got him back, but I feel like my world has changed. I cannot give this program enough praise. The facility, the training, the care, the communication… the list goes on! If you found MLK9, you hit the dog lottery!

This is an early review as our dogs have only been home 3 days, but I’m super excited about their progress and potential. As I type this, I am sitting on the couch and my two dogs are both on their pillow (“place”). It will take a lot of practice (for me, since they are more advanced than I am) but I fully believe that this B&T experience will be a game changer for our family. Our dogs were good dogs, and I believe that this training will get them to great. After spending over a month training with Andy, both of our dogs adore him, and to me, that is the icing on the cake. I am assuming that these first few days are the hardest (as my family and I get used to the commands/training), but it’s been easier than I thought, and I have zero regrets with doing this for our boys.

Andy is awesome! He really knows what he’s doing with dogs. I love the communication that he ket with us, informing us of everything that was going on. The videos each week of Daisy were fantastic! I also really appreciate that he invited us out before committing to anything to show us his facility.
