Ohio State K-9 College

We recently got a 14 wk Dutch Shepard puppy- oh so sweet and very smart. I know I wanted a trainer who could go beyond the typical 5 commands as well as Quality being their number one priority. When I came across Ohio State K-9 college, Joey’s philosophy and approach truly resonated with me, setting him apart from the typical shock collar board-and-train programs I’ve encountered. What attracted me the most is his emphasis on understanding each dog’s individual needs rather than resorting to one-size-fits-all methods. His intelligent approach is evident through his extensive knowledge of various dog breeds and behaviors. With 47+ years of training experience, he brings a wealth of expertise that I find reassuring. It’s clear that he connects with dogs on a deeper level, fostering an envi

Finding Joey Byas has truly been life-changing. Over the past six years, I spent thousands of dollars working with four different trainers. Yet Joey taught me more about dogs — and the dog training industry — for free than all of them combined ever did. He generously spent hours with me on multiple phone calls, sharing knowledge and insights that none of my previous trainers had ever explained. Everything he taught simply made sense and completely changed how I work with my dogs today. My previous trainers relied on choke collars, prong collars, and E-collars. I was never fully comfortable with those techniques, but I didn’t realize there was a better way. Thanks to Joey, I now understand how to properly train my dogs using his 100% VOICE CONTROL training method — the more effective ap

I am so EXCITED I found Ohio State K-9 College!! I have been training my Belgian Malinois, Nova, on my own, but I feel like I'm doing a disservice to her, and she deserves real, professional trainingn by a Master Trainer. I have spent countless hours researching over several months, and it has left me more overwhelmed and confused than ever. Looking at all the different amateur training school options, not one of them provides all of the courses that Ohio State K-9 College provides, including the effective 1 on 1 training with the only Master Trainer in central Ohio. When I found the website, I immediately closed all of my other tabs, because I finally found what I have been looking for. Just by reading the valuable information the website provides, I learned more in 30 minutes, than I d

Joe is truly a Master Trainer, very very impressed with all his knowledge and abilities. With over 48 years of experience he has a gift from above. I have 2 Belgian Malinois and he is going to get me trained to get them in 100% total control. So blessed our paths crossed. I have used other trainers in the past and I had no idea that they were actually hurting my dog with the prong and choke collars. His training method is 100% voice control. Highly recommend going and checking his program. Most people don't do enough research when they're choosing a trainer which is a huge and costly mistake. Do your research and choose wisely because it totally matters.

My husband and I went to Ohio State K-9 College today for an evaluation with our dog, and we were absolutely blown away. Joey was amazing — within minutes, our dog was obeying every command he gave, using nothing but the tone of his voice. No collars, no shockers, no hitting — just pure skill and knowledge. We’ve read the incredible reviews about Joey, and today we saw with our own eyes that every single one of them is true. In just a few minutes, Joey had our dog responding both indoors and outdoors in ways we couldn’t accomplish in months on our own. What makes Joey stand out is that other schools rely on spike collars, shock collars, or choke chains — but Joey doesn’t need any of that. He makes training look effortless, and the results speak for themselves. If you’re considering train
