Obedient K9 Academy

We can’t recommend Obedient K9 of Charlotte highly enough! From start to finish, our experience with trainers Brian and AJ has been exceptional. We have a working line German Shepherd, and their depth of breed knowledge is truly impressive—they understand the drive, energy, and intelligence of working breeds like no one else. During our private lessons, their clear, step-by-step communication made it easy for us to learn confidently and implement training correctly at home. They consistently helped our dog exceed all of our expectations, turning challenges into achievable goals. On top of that, their patience is unmatched—I must have asked a million questions, and they always answered thoughtfully, ensuring we fully understood each concept. Brian and AJ are professional, knowledgeable, a

My 5 year old Pug is reactive and is impossible to take on walks…… is what I would’ve said a month ago. Now after working with Obedient K9, I can confidently say that he is happier, more confident and more relaxed when going on walks. I really appreciate how the program has structure but also is designed to help your dog with their own areas that need improvement. Every week Toast gets better and better and I feel confident that as time goes on, we can utilize the tools and tricks we learned to keep his progress going. We worked with Jamie and I cannot recommend her enough. I know Toast felt safe and comfortable around her. She was amazing at being patient with us learning and was extremely helpful with coming up for solutions to other challenges. If you are on the fence, I recommend booki

We rescued our golden retriever in July. He needed love and attention that the previous family could not provide. At the age of 2, he had missed a lot of social queues. But he was very sweet and we needed some guidance. We decided to commute to k9 obedience which was a 90 minute commute. But oh so worth it. Alana was the best trainer for Rooney. And she helped us understand how to best communicate to our new family member. I highly recommend K9 obedience for your canine training needs. You won’t be sorry!!! He’s doing great fitting into our lives. Hiking. Camping. Breweries. He’s a great brother to our existing Chesapeake bay retriever!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Alana at Obedient K9 Academy. She did Board & Train with my dog, Pippa, who needed much more than basic obedience. Tiny Pippa struggles with anxiety, confidence, and navigating new situations around other people and dogs, and Alana went above and beyond to help her. Alana has an incredible wealth of knowledge about dog training, and it shows in everything she does. She was endlessly patient, thoughtful, and struck the perfect balance of being caring yet firm. Just as importantly, she didn’t only work with Pippa. She worked with me as well, taking the time to explain the “why” behind the training and helping me feel more confident handling Pippa in situations that feel overwhelming for both of us. It was clear from the start that Alana truly care

If you’ve been thinking about getting your dog trained, stop thinking and just book a consultation with Obedient K9!! We’d been putting off training for our dog for the last year or so because we were nervous about the cost. It is absolutely worth every penny to go to obedient k9. They have many options and payment plans and honestly? You can’t do this kind of training on your own with no help. They were so sweet to us and to Ozzy from day 1 and matched us with Brian, an absolute dream!! He’s very relaxed and friendly and sooo knowledgeable about dog training. He made us feel comfortable and trained us as much as he trained our dog. We love obedient k9!!
