Taylor Made Working Dogs

Exceptional training, incredible results, and a team that truly cares. If you want a well-trained, happy dog and the knowledge to maintain it at home, Taylor Made Working Dogs is the best decision you can make. We adopted our Rottweiler puppy, Meli, 13 months ago, and Kris Taylor and the team at Taylor Made Working Dogs have been instrumental from day one. From the very beginning of the adoption process through raising a high-energy puppy, Kris was always available—often via text—whenever I had questions about behavior or needed guidance on how to encourage or correct something. We’ve done both puppy board-and-train and adult board-and-train programs, and the results speak for themselves. Our friends and family are constantly amazed that a 13-month-old Rottweiler can be this obedient, fo

Couldn’t be a bigger fan of Kris and the team at Taylor Made. I had just lost a Gsd and i needed to make sure we had a dog with the right temperament and training. He made sure to match me with the right dog and the training he provided it was fantastic. He was patient with all of our questions, thorough with the training/education for my wife and I and he’s been extremely responsive every time I have a question. He genuinely cares about these dogs and it shows. Willie has integrated into our home seamlessly, we know he’ll be great with our future kids and we couldn’t be happier. Couldn’t be a bigger fan of the work they do, the quality of their dogs and the service they provide.

Taylor Made Working Dogs have been wonderful to work with over the last 2 years. My dog has wonderful characteristics that fit me perfectly. As a personal protection dog, he has gone above and beyond, protecting me and helping me to avoid situations that had potential to be harmful. His training is perfect for my needs. My son even states he doesn’t worry about me as long as I have my dog. My dog has been given the confidence to handle any situation. He drives with me across the country, he loves mountains, oceans and flying. Without hesitation, he is an extension of me. Kris Taylor has always been easy to reach out to for questions and/or refreshment of my skills as a handler. Thank you Kris!!!

On September 4, 2025 i picked up a little girl from their UUU litter. From the start of our conversations, Kris has always been very timely, and excellent at answering any and all questions i had about the pups. I was able to visit a few times to make sure i picked out the right girl for me, and i'm glad i did! She is such an avid learner with great drive. She is now 12 weeks old and I can't wait to get her started up at TMWD training facility. Kris has an amazing understanding of these pups and there's no one else i'd trust her training with. If you are questioning getting a WL GSD, or know that you want one, TMWD is 100% the way to go.

I got my German Shepherd puppy from Taylor Made Working Dogs and she’s now 6 months—healthy, biddable, and absolutely gorgeous. Kris is the real deal: knowledgeable, straightforward, and easy to work with. The communication and guidance have been excellent from day one. I recommend Kris without hesitation, and I tell everyone who stops me to ask about London where she came from. I want to thank Kris and his team for this beautiful pup.
