Shepherds K9 Services

I am beyond happy with my dog Rex's training! This was his first time being away from me and I was a bit nervous about leaving him, but after the evaluation and meeting Stephanie I knew he was in good hands. She explained everything that was going to happen during his training period and made sure to answer all questions. Stephanie also sent me updates of Rex during training, if that was photos or just a simple text that he was doing good. I am very impressed with how Rex walks on and off the leash now with no pulling, having manners, and listens.

So beyond happy with my dog Brooklyn’s training! This was my first time sending a dog to boarding or any kind of training, and Brooklyn’s first time being away from me for more than a day or two—so it’s safe to say I was definitely nervous about sending him away. Thankfully, I had met Stephanie a few years ago and had always thought her dogs were so well-behaved. I knew there was nobody else I would trust to watch my dog. During drop-off, she was helpful and thoughtful about our goals, and she made sure to explain everything before I left. My dog can be nervous and shy, especially around new people, so I didn’t know how he would do in a program like this. My biggest fear was that he’d be scared or upset while at training…but when I picked him up, he looked AMAZING! He seemed like he rea

We sent our reactive, impulsive, selective listing one year old boxer/ pit pup to 3 week board and train with Stephanie and her team. We have seen such a behavioral change in Holly and she is responding so well to the e-collar. Off leash life is already so fun and we are so excited to take Holly with us everywhere we go! Thank you!!!!

After several months of struggling with our Mini Dachshund Waffles, I started looking into official training programs. She was having issues with barking, housebreaking, resource guarding, and was causing a lot of frustration and stress within our household. From the beginning, I knew a board & train program was what we preferred and had several friends recommend Stephanie at Shepherd’s K9. From the moment I dropped Waffles off, I knew she was in great hands. The facility was impressive— so clean, very safe, and well-equipped, allowing Waffles to socialize with other dogs while receiving structured training. I always looked forward to seeing pictures and videos that Stephanie would post while she was there. After four weeks, we had our exit meeting with Stephanie (AKA “train the humans”) a

I cannot say enough good things about Shepherds K9 Services! I used a different training service for three of my dogs about 10 years ago and had planned to use them again with my new lab/shepherd mix puppy I adopted last summer. However, my mom had used Stephanie (owner) and Shepherds K9 Services with her dog Ruby two years ago and highly recommended I meet with Stephanie first as she said I would "absolutely love her" and she was right! Stephanie and her team are some of the most professional, knowledgeable, and amazing people I have ever worked with. My Puppy Leo stayed at her training facility for three weeks and he came back with manners and training that have made life with him and my equally rambunctious toddler so much more peaceful. Stephanie is always available for follow-up quest
