Natalie was amazing and we would recommend K9Mania to every dog owner. Before boot camp, our rescue pup had severe separation anxiety and couldnt be left alone for more than five minutes. After training, shes is so much more confident and her anxiety has gotten so much better. Natalie was such an incredible trainer and has made herself available to answer any questions weve had, even after training was completed. We couldnt be happier with K9Mania and the service. 10/10

K9 Mania is amazing!!! We brought our boy Bodie for their 3 week training and he is SO well-behaved now!!! Everywhere we go we get compliments. His trainer James Shannon was an absolute gem- so kind, caring and clearly a dog whisperer!!! He sent regular communications including pictures and videos of Bodies progress keeping us well-informed on how he was doing. I highly recommend K9- and James if you can get him. :)Also- they go all out with seasonal and holiday decorations, so cute!!!

If I could give 100 stars I would! We did the board and train and it is an absolutely amazing program. We were at a dead end with Blue because he had horrible fear based dog reactivity. But we are so glad and so proud to say that our Blue has his confidence back and we are super impressed with all information and tools provided to us. We feel well educated and confident to continue Blues training. Our trainer Erika has done a beautiful job with Blue & was so patient and thorough while answering all of our questions. Highly recommend you guys to everyone!

We had an overall amazing experience with the hybrid private training program at K9 Mania with my 1 year old Labradoodle Tucker. Our trainer Gabby was truly amazing throughout the entire program, constantly adjusting course material to best suit my dog, his needs, and how he learns best. Over the 5 weeks, Tucker became more confident, neutral and far less reactive than going into the program. Prior to this program going on walks was a tough task, with constant pulling and barking at other dogs. It’s safe to say that has been essentially entirely worked out at this point and he is able to walk calmly in a heel and walk past other dogs without reactivity. It’s truly an amazing transformation. I recommend this program to anyone who is highly motivated to put in the daily work with your dog, because you definitely get out of it what you put in, but Gabby was there for us every step of the way! I look forward to taking the tools we learned over the last 5 weeks and continuing to build on it all. Thank you K9 Mania & thank you Gabby!

We sent our corgipoo Nero for the 4 week boarding and training, the entire staff was amazing from beginning to end! Jayden, her trainer was the cherry on top he was simply fantastic with Nero and was always patient to send us photos and is extremely knowledgeable. Everyone in the facility showed that they love all of the dogs under their care and showed Nero all of the love she could want in our absence. They were able to address all of the concerns we had with our little girl. I will honestly recommend K9mania to everyone i know for how good we were treated and how amazing and well behaved our precious girl came out due to Jayden and the staffs diligence and experience!

I can’t say enough on how K9 Mania changed our lives with our GSD Levi. He was super reactive to people and dogs. He was very anxious even at home. After the 4 week board and train program we have a totally different dog. He is more relaxed and confident. I enjoy our walks together now. There is minimal reactivity and life at home is more peaceful. Thank you so much for your services! It has definitely improved our quality of life.

I would like to give my sincere thanks and appreciation to the K9 Mania Family, especially Aunty Jamie.I just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with your training methods. Hades (my 1 1/2-year-old Rottweiler is my emotional support dog. He’s a wonderful, sweet-tempered dog, but had never had any formal training and was a real puller. At 100lbs he was strong enough to walk me instead of the other way around! As you already know Rottweilers have a reputation for being a dangerous and aggressive breed of dogs. People are afraid of them, giving them a reputation for being a scary breed. I was afraid to walk an untrained dog in fear of him running up on someone to play and having a person accuse him of trying to attack them.With the K9 Mania dog training family and Jamie, we learned along with Hades and now are quite confident that we can take him anywhere. I can now enjoy my long walks with him without hurting myself.Thanks again, and best wishes for the continued success of your business.Sincerely,

Highly recommend this place for dog training!A big thanks to Jamie for being such a wonderful trainer. She kept us updated daily on Zizu’s progress and even shared pictures, which we loved. I couldn’t be happier with the results. Jamie helped Zizu stay calm in situations that used to cause anxiety, and she built his confidence tremendously. The ‘down’ and ‘place’ commands were mastered quickly, and potty training went smoothly thanks to her expert guidance. What I appreciated most was how she incorporated fun commands like ‘spin,’ making the training sessions enjoyable for Zizu. I highly recommend K9 Mania to anyone looking for effective, caring dog training.

We recently sent our 2-year-old pit mix, Bailey, to K9 Mania for the four week board and train program to work on decreasing her anxiety and reactivity around other dogs.During our initial consultation, I had the chance to meet with Olivia. Not only was she knowledgeable about the program options, but she also showed kindness and understanding of my emotions regarding the situation (I was very sad to leave Bailey for a month). Although she was not our trainer, she stopped by during both our midway and go-home visits to check in on Bailey and I. We appreciate how she went out of her way to ensure we had the most positive experience.Once enrolled, Bailey was paired with Jayden as her lead trainer. We thought Jayden did a great job building rapport and trust with Bailey. He brought positive energy and enthusiasm to all of the sessions we attended as well as the ones we received video recordings of. His communication with us during the process was fantastic. He sent multiple photos and updates throughout the week in addition to the M/W/F photos and videos we were initially promised. Jayden also took the time to answer all of our questions to make sure we felt comfortable and understood exactly what was going on with Bailey during her time with K9 Mania.Since Bailey has come home, we have seen significant improvements with her obedience (e.g. sit, down, place, come). She is also doing a great job walking on the leash in heel. Her reactivity has decreased and overall, she seems to have a much calmer demeanor. At our go-home session we were given a prong collar, leash, place bed, and e-collar/remote to use at home as well as some of the treats she enjoyed to help during the transition. We were also provided with access to online training videos and a K9 Mania Training booklet that includes reference information from the program, daily training checklists and a monthly training tracker. We will absolutely be using these resources to keep consistency with our training schedule at home.Thank you again to the team at K9 Mania for all you did for Bailey and our family. We look forward to returning with Bailey to attend the group advanced training classes in the future.

Nothing but positive things to say about our experience with K9 Mania and Billy’s trainer, Jaime.8 months ago we adopted our sweet loving pup Billy, but due to his anxiety, we struggled to get him comfortable in different social settings. Tail tucked and pulling at the leash, we were finding it hard to help him find his confidence. We were initially worried about leaving him for a few weeks, but Jaime eased our own anxieties, by sending us daily updates/pictures.After seeing Billy’s progress each week, we knew we made the right decision choosing K9 Mania. Thanks to Jaime, and the rest of the K9 mania staff, Billy came home today more confident and well trained than ever. Exceeding our expectations.

We just picked up our precious baby Moka. We are overjoyed to have her home after over 3 weeks and so pleased with her new skills and manners. Her trainer, James, was so good with her. She adored him, and it showed with the loving gaze she stared at him with. We know we had her at the right place and would recommend your services to others without hesitation.Thank you,Stew, Crysti and Moka Latte

Incoming 5 star review here. Before bringing Tucker to K9 mania, our boy was anxious and aggressive. He pulled on the leash and would try to lunge and go after other dogs and sometimes people. We love Jake. He was extremely helpful and responsive. We could tell he really cares about Tucker and helping improve his quality of life. He went above and beyond for our boy and we couldnt be more grateful. Everyone we came in contact with at K9 mania adored Tucker. Even when our head trainer, Jake was off, we received messages, calls, and photos of our boy. All staff was extremely friendly, kind, and assertive (which our boy needed). No question was unanswered and no stone was left unturned. We received messages, phone calls, pictures, and videos of Tucker. Jake took him to various places outside of the facility like Home Depot and 711 to test Tucker out in the world. We also received our own education and training through various videos and An instructional book. K9 mania literally gave us all the necessary tools through not only education, but all items needed to guarantee Tucker’s success. Tucker loves everyone at K9 mania and we can’t wait to practice and return for our follow up visit. Tucker’s behavior has changed for the better and we highly recommend k9 mania for training.

Our dog Harley was already great with obedience but we lacked the ability to really reinforce her accountability and working under distraction. This 3 week training program was exactly what we needed to take our pup from good to great. It was next level. They took her out to Home Depot and other places to help work through real life distractions and gave us all the tools we need to continue her training. So happy with our experience! Gabby was an incredible trainer. Thank you k9 mania!!

First, they were very clear as to packages, cost and what they thought my dogs needed. They were right on target as to the problems with my dogs. Finally, I had Gabby as our instructor- a gift. She was kind, patient, funny, loved dogs and loved to educate dog parents. It’s a week since our last lesson, the dogs heel automatically, no longer bark when the doorbell rings, their owner knows when to retreat if necessary but has gained self confidence that I pass on to my dogs. We have a way to go but things are so much better and I now walk my dogs happily and without fear.

I had magnificent results with K9 Mania, Jake and Jamie and the entire staff took great care of my Border Terrier (Jack). His obedience and off leash training was excellent. I would highly recommend K9 Mania to bring your dog to the next level

I absolutely love K9 Mania! My pup came home so well behaved! But most importantly Fluffy was showered with love and care during his board and train. Leaving him for 3 weeks was nerve wrecking and very emotional for me, but I was getting pictures and updates regularly and additionally whenever I asked (almost every day 😉 crazy dog mom here, don’t judge me 🤷🏼‍♀️). And when I went for the mid session I saw with my own eyes that everyone there was friendly and loving toward all the pups there. On top of that, I must say that James - his trainer has done an amazing job! I couldn’t believe that I can finally enjoy walks with him, without him pulling my arm out. And when he gets too excited I know how to put himIn place and let him calm down, before it was impossible. Game changer.Update: it just blew my mind so I have to share it! I left my puppy in the house for 30-45 minutes. Somehow he got out of the house. When I got home he sat still and straight, waiting for me.There are a lot of deer and wild turkeys and squirrels around here. He used to go ballistic when he saw one of those. Now he waited for me to come home. No fence, no e-collar. No tracking device yet 😱😱😱😱 and he stayed on. The porch and waited on me… mind blown times 1000000000000000000. And walks at the beach with no leash… another story for the books!

If I can give K-9 more stars I would. We picked up our Daizie yesterday after the 3 week drop off training course. I called after a terrible day spent with our dog in the city.When we got Daizie (at 4 months) we immediately went to puppy class. Even though this was not our first dog we wanted a stress free home life which we all know is a chance you take when you get a new dog. She house trained, learned all her commands, listened and was a delight very quickly. However, at some point she picked up some aggressive behaviors while out on walks and barked/lunged at everything that walked or rode by us. She also barked at everything that went by our house making us keep the blinds down and was never settled. We tried everything to refocus her with no success. She became a jumper and counter surfer. Needless to say we had a very stressful home life with our dog.I called K-9 on a Saturday so upset and stressed after that terrible day. They gave us an appt that Sunday afternoon.2 weeks later we dropped her off and from day 1 JAIME our trainer was absolutely the BEST!!!!!!! She reassured me my dog would not forget me. And also expressed I was some of the problem :). She sent pics and updates EVERY SINGLE DAY. She said we had “the best student” but she needed to be desensitized from the things that scare her and she needed to be held accountable when she didn’t listen. That was the part Jaime stated where I was he problem. Jaime was like a friend more than a stranger. The open communication was key.We have a lot of work to do to keep this all going. We will do our follow up’s and take the classes offered by K-9 because they dont stop the support after you pick your dog up. I can’t thank Jaime and K-9 enough for giving us back a happy Daizie. They say a trained dog is a happy dog and I couldn’t agree more.I actually wrote this whole review while Daizie sat in her “place”. AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Really enjoyed my experience! Me and my dog Nala worked with Gaby for 5 weeks straight and not just me but also Gaby noticed the progress with Nala since the very beginning that we started up until graduation. I’m glad we were able to work around my schedule for training and i was much happier that i got a trainer like gaby who is loud/ stern with her voice and was just the right person who i wanted training my dog since i have already had NALA trained. One last thing to whoever is reading, “REPETITION BUILDS SUCCESS AND CONSISTENCY SPEEDS IT UP” always remember that!!!!

K9 Mania has a great training program. Olivia worked with myself and my Dane, Heidi. Heidi was roughly 3 months old when I started training with Olivia. Heidi had a lot of puppy energy, severe separation anxiety, other anxieties in general, and loathed the crate. Olivia was very patient and has great training tactics, emphasizing consistency. Now at a year old (although she still hates the crate), Heidi is well trained, continues to gain confidence, and has socialized beautifully.K9 Manias boarding program is also great. I feel comfortable boarding Heidi knowing that she is in great hands with the staff. The staff all love her and she loves them!

The best decision i had made for the well-being of my household members and my pet was to bring Dyamond to K9 Mania Dog Training. Jake has transform my dog behavior tremendously in just a month, Dyamond has learned many commands and is more obedient than ever. I have seen how my dog shows so much love toward Jake and I just love how they always keep you updated on how your dog is doing. I will be bringing her back!

We just picked up our 15 month old Newfoundland, Grizz from K9 Mania Board and Train Program. Grizz had a rough beginning and had no training when I rescued him. Given his size and his lack of training I knew I needed help. K9 Mania had Grizz for 4 weeks and we visited and we were trained along with him. We picked up Grizz last night and it’s like a new dog. He is calmer and sits, comes and goes to his place. K9 Mania sent us home with a beautifully trained dog and all the equipment and tools that you need to keep them well trained. I highly recommend K9 Mania and their very professional and knowledgeable trainers! I cannot thank Jayden and Jake enough for your support and guidance. K9 Mania is worth every penny. Thank you, K9 Mania and crew!

The training at K9 Mania was amazing and went much better than I could have imagined. The communication throughout the board and train was very clear and very helpful.Loki has really improved with his behavior while still remaining his goofy self. His time with K9 Mania was absolutely amazing and I can only imagine how much better he will get with time.I would recommend Criselda (the trainer training Loki) to anyone who wants a professional, helpful & reliable training service. She really loves training dogs and goes above and beyond to make sure that all of the dogs needs and dog owners needs are met and accounted for. I am very greatful for all her time and dedication throughout Lokis board and training.

In August 2023, we enrolled our dog Wyatt at K9 for a three-week training program with high hopes for significant improvement. Our goals were to have him learn to walk on a leash, potty outside, and receive more crate training. Unfortunately, it seems the experience was a waste of money, as Wyatts behavior worsened.Before the training, we were able to get him to go in the crate, but upon his return, he refused to go into the crate and even began to potty in it, which had never happened before. While K9 claimed Wyatt improved his collar sensitivity and became more comfortable with the prong collar, we found it impossible to put the collar on him at home, and he became very aggressive when we tried.Additionally, we were very unhappy with how Wyatt was treated. He came home with matted hair all over his head and neck and developed pressure sores on his neck from the e-collar not being adjusted frequently enough. This caused him to have huge bald spots all over his neck. When we got him back, he was reverse sneezing, and I initially thought it was kennel cough. It was really hard to get in touch with K9 to address my concerns.Overall, the experience at K9 was deeply disappointing and concerning for Wyatts well-being. Im disappointed K9 failed to meet our expectations and care for Wyatt properly, and I’m also disappointed in myself for putting him through this experience.

I was truly delighted to have James as our trainer for my twin Bernedoodles for the duration of their stay at K9 Mania. He was incredibly patient with my anxious girl doodle, Maggie and my headstrong doodle, Shamrock. James commitment to delivering outstanding service exceeded my expectations. His expertise in dog behavior was essential to the success of Maggie & Shamrock’s training.Working with James was a pleasure and I highly recommend him to anyone who needs help with their dogs.

I only have amazing things to say about K9 Mania. They are truly the best. So understanding, empathetic and caring. They take an individualized approach to each dog and I so appreciate that. I am a very nervous dog mom and struggled to drop my dog off - but they comforted me throughout.Ashlee has been the perfect trainer for our fearful and anxious rescue dog. She knows who he is and although it has taken time our dog trusts her and really loves her. She has been beyond patient with him. We love you, Ashlee!!The entire team is so friendly and passionate - it is so easy to see and feel. The videos and pictures we received weekly were so wonderful! The entire 4 weeks, they were transparent and very communicative. You do have to remember that they are working with numerous dogs so it may take a bit of time for the trainer to respond - which is very normal.Give them a chance - schedule a phone call and go in for a consult. They aren’t pushy but they will be honest. You and your dog deserve it!I can’t thank them enough - it is our job as the parents to continue training and educating ourselves and our dog. No dog is a bad dog - it’s all about setting them up for success. I firmly believe that. Ashlee gave us the tools to better our life and our pups. Onwards and upwards :)Thank you K9 team! We love you and we will be back to visit and for boarding!

A huge thank you to all the trainers at K9 Mania. Three weeks ago when we first brought Zeus in for his evaluation we honestly didnt know what to expect. Zeus was pulling on walks, jumping on people & had severe separation anxiety. But Olivia did such an Amazing job truly professional, patient and a super informative throughout this whole experience. The love she has for her job is evident in Zeus progress. When we did the two week check in we saw a complete 180. Definitely no regrets choosing K9 mania and we hope you guys continue to change the lives of dogs and their owners. Thank you again Olivia!

We owned a pair of canines and recently introduced a puppy to our household during the summer, which significantly disrupted the harmony within our home. After conducting thorough research, I stumbled upon a K9-Mania and subsequently brought all three dogs to Sophia for a consultation. Her assistance was invaluable as she meticulously devised an exceptional plan tailored to suit the needs of all three of my dogs. Firstly, I dropped off our eldest dog, Buzz, and allowed for a two-week overlap with Duke, our middle-aged dog. Subsequently, when the time came to retrieve Buzz, we left our puppy, Stella, who coexisted with Duke for a week. Monica, who proved to be remarkable, was responsible for their training. She consistently provided us with visual material in the form of pictures and videos, while also ensuring regular communication regarding their progress. Furthermore, she displayed an exceptional ability to elicit obedience and leash-walking without any mishaps. I am profoundly grateful for their assistance, particularly Monica, who exhibited unparalleled teaching skills during her interactions with my daughter during both the intermediate and concluding sessions. Additionally, she equipped me with valuable strategies to continue working on their training upon the return of both Duke and Buzz, prior to the puppys homecoming. Consequently, my dogs have all displayed newfound confidence, as they are now considerably more composed, obedient, and capable of executing commands while walking on a leash. I extend my deepest gratitude for their indispensable aid, particularly to Monica, who proved to be an extraordinary mentor for my daughter during her involvement in the intermediate and concluding sessions.

We sent our fur baby to K9 Mania because our dog Nyla was showing signs of aggression around other dogs. She would constantly jump on people and couldn’t walk on a leash without pulling. We had a our initial consult with Jake who was very knowledgeable about dog behaviors. We were so fortunate to get paired up with Erika as Nyla’s trainer who was just amazing. She really bonded with our girl and helped her overcome so many issues. They are friends for life. We are so grateful to her for working with Nyla so well and keeping us informed of her progress. We received videos and photos of how she was doing throughout the week. Nyla did so well we decided to take our other dog Nico to K9 as well so he could benefit from the awesome training at the K9 Mania facility.Thank you again K9! 😊

It is without reservation that I highly recommend K9 Mania for training your dog. This is an extremely well run, efficient and organized operation. Sophia was completely transparent with me during my initial visit to the facility. I was extremely fortunate to have Frank as our trainer. I cannot say enough about how compassionate, knowledgeable, kind, and thorough. Frank was. The most important quality Frank showed me was his absolute love of my dog. With this I was able to leave Diesel for three weeks without any worries or concerns. I received updates, photos and videos throughout the three week training. And Diesel came back a much better behaved dog. I cannot say enough about Frank, Sophia, and all the other wonderful people working at K9 Mania! Thank you for a great experience!! Ann Anderson MD

Before K9 mania, Rex was very hard to control. He’s always been an excited dog and didn’t know when enough was enough nor did we know how to teach him. After many trainers, we finally found K9 mania and talked to Jake, who was very straight up with us and told us exactly what needed to be done. Dominic, Rex’s trainer during his one month boarding, kept us up to date with all of his training and how he was doing. He’s like a brand new dog now. We have the confidence to have him off leash and bring him to more populated places and have him enjoy the life we originally wanted to give him. He’s our baby and I don’t know what we would’ve done if we didn’t find this place. All the love for the trainers there. Rex misses you guys!

We brought our 30 month old German Shepherd, Duke to K9 Mania. Duke had not had any formal training beforehand. We met Sofia & Gaby and Gaby became Duke’s trainer. We could no have asked for a better fit.The videos and then working hand in hand with Gaby transformed both Duke and ourselves. We went from being hesitant about taking him out to being able to walk on leash without pulling.The commands were clear and concise, working almost immediately with Duke. Gaby was generous with both her knowledge and her time. We never felt rushed and she always provided us with answers to all our questions. Gaby is an enthusiastic, energetic and knowledgeable trainer! We would not hesitate to recommend Gaby and K9 Mania to all our friends.

An extra special big thank you to our trainer Monica she did such an amazing job with her training, always keeping me posted with Pipers progress, I could reach out to her anytime and getting pictures and videos was greatly to see.Monica truly took such good care of her like she was her own. It meant so much to me to see the dedication and love she showed to her. Thank you!!

I sent my dog to K9 mania’s board and train program for basic obedience and his trainer Criselda was fantastic!! She went above and beyond and in the 3 week program and he was able to learn way more during that short time than I could teach him in a year! He returned as a very happy and obedient pup! Criselda was extremely communicative throughout his stay and I loved the update videos she sent. It made it a lot easier knowing my dog absolutely loved her and had fun while learning.

We took our German shepherd, Zeus, to K-9 Mania for help with his reactivity and fear-based aggression. During his four-week program, he was paired with Gaby, and we couldn’t have asked for a better trainer. Gaby’s expertise and genuine care for Zeus were evident, as she went above and beyond to ensure his progress. We were always updated on his progress, and all our questions were thoroughly answered. During our go-home session, we were thrilled to see how much Zeus had improved—his reactivity had significantly decreased, and he was much more responsive to commands. He’s also grown more confident overall. We’re so excited to continue this new journey with Zeus! Thank you Gaby for allowing us to have another chance with our sweet boy Zeus, your dedication and hard work is seen!

We sent two of our Doodles there for board and train. Gabby was an absolute amazing training!Very thorough. Answered all questions with depth and always got back to me quickly while our pups were boarding. At home the dogs walk a million times better with which I am extremely pleased. I can take both of them outside for a walk without any issues what so ever. As long as they are wearing the training collar. With out the training collar they both don’t listen as good. They aren’t perfectly trained but definitely better. The dogs will look perfect at the facility and get home and want to result back to their old ways. Training isn’t 100% guaranteed to stick at home which is why you have to make sure to be on top of keep the training fresh in the pups mind. I personally think it should be less than 4k. But thats just my opinion!

We took our two pitties (2.5 and 4yo females) to K9 Mania for their 5 week training program and we were very happy! The weekly videos are clear and easy to follow, and the weekly session was always really helpful and informative. We worked with Jake, and our girls really loved him and responded well to training. I highly recommend for anyone looking for help with obedience! Our girls did great and are now excited and confident to do their training instead of hesitant and distracted.

I brought my two year old Pitt to K9 Mania for dog aggression. It was explained to me that while his aggression may not be cured it would certainly be manageable. I appreciated the honest evaluation by Jake and therefore was able to set reasonable expectations. I opted to have Phoenix enrolled in the board and train program concentrating on the reactivity/aggression. His trainer Gabby was awesome. She immediately was in tune to Phoenixs behavior and threshold. She is patient and kind. I will honestly say that she is dedicated and truly loves her profession. She bonded with Phoenix immediately and was able to train him to respond to commands and expose him to other dogs without lunging or going into attack mode. I was honestly impressed with her training skills and how much progress Phoenix has made. I will continue to incorporate his training into his daily routine for the best outcome. In addition, knowing any concerns or questions that arise I will always have Gabby as a resource. Thank you Gabby:)

Very pleased with our investment in our mini golden doodle Opa with k9! It’s a pleasure to go on walks in the park with Opa now who walks like an angel on lose leash. He goes to place and has the confidence and tools to deal with stressful situations. Our dog is almost 4 and grew up in covid so he lacked socialization and k9 helped me learn the tools to be more confident. We are so thankful for his patient trainer GRACE that took the time to bond with Opa. If your dog is naturally shy, go for the full 4 weeks. It makes a big difference. They’re also great about sending updates more than weekly if you miss your dog terribly like I did and want more than once a week picture updates. Thank you for giving us peace with Opa!

Big shoutout to Jamie for doing such an amazing job with our dog, Kino! Before training, Kino was hard to handle around other dogs on a leash. Now, he’s much calmer on walks and more neutral around dogs and people. We were able walked him through PetSmart where he was able to listen and follow through with his commands with little to no issue. Jamie kept us in the loop the whole time with daily pictures, weekly videos and was very thorough when answering all our questions during our mid-way/go-home session. Can’t recommend Jamie and K9 Mania enough—they’ve been awesome!

My dog Lottie stayed with K9 Mania for 4 weeks for their board and train program and she excelled with her trainer, Gaby. Gaby was communicative the entire time and very knowledgable about her training techniques. I felt super safe with the training equipment used because of the resources they provided to educate me and seeing it in person before, during, and after training. I also feel confident with Lottie because they did a great job preparing me as well. Highly recommend this team!

To start… My dog Krypto was a rescued Pit Bull… totally a knucklehead and uncontrollable Altho no fault of his own.I called K9 mania for help and from the start even on the phone they were welcoming and understanding.Next day I was in there with Krypto for a consultation and met Olivia (who wound up being his trainer.)Both Olivia and Krypto took to each other in a way that almost made me jealous.She was so patient and understood Krypto anxiety. I’m so glad and appreciative I landed here as the trainer.Also she kept great communication with me by sending me videos, pictures and text messages about his progress.By the end of 1 week Krypto was a new dog. Listening to commands and cues.I was totally blown away by what Olivia was able to do with Krypto. I honestly could never imagine him so well trained and behaved.Thank you Olivia for everything!!! You deserve a raise, or at least be made partner with the owner.Thank you for helping me save Krypto. ❤️

We are so happy with how attentive and thoughtful Gabby was with Penny. We were always kept informed through pictures, videos, and phone calls. Everyone was so Communicative and helpful. They answered allof our questions and helped us be reassured through every Step of the process. We couldnt be happier with how efficient and professional everyone was. We are also so relieved to know that Gabby will continue to be available to help with Penny as needed.

The facility is great! It’s clean, the dogs seem well taken care of and the trainers are very knowledgeable. I was skeptical with prong and e-collar but after educating myself and learning how to use them properly and with the guidance from my trainer I now feel confident and comfortable using these tools. It’s not the tool it’s how you use them! Lilo was very responsive and caught on quickly. I’ve used other methods with some success on basics but with distractions she was a little difficult, pulling and not listening outside at all. Now she doesn’t pull and I can get her to focus on me more when we are on walks. It’s not perfect and by no means it she 💯 every time but she’s learning and so am I, I’m confident that I can get her there soon. It will take time, practice, repetition and patience on my part but I’m very excited and motivated for what’s to come, what she can do and to build a better relationship with her.

Natalie transformed our dog! Our puppy went from refusing to walking and hyper reactive to being able to calmly navigate crowded and loud spaces. We have been able to fly with him, take him to work, and long walks where he is always by our side and under control.Natalie far exceeded our expectations and what we could have hoped for our relationship with our puppy. If you want an incredibly trained dog, request Natalie!

We will gladly give K9 Mania 5 out of 5 stars! K-9 Mania has amazing trainers that truly try to help you connect with your dog as well as training them appropriately. We appreciate their time, their patience, and their expert abilities when training our little girl, Zora. We are grateful to have found Janine and Nick. They not only taught us proper training techniques but they made us grow a stronger bond with our dog. We recommended Nick and Janine to everyone and anyone interested in dog training.

I initially brought my dogs to K9 Mania because they were extremely leash reactive to other dogs, to the point where I was too scared to take them on walks. I was nervous about leaving them for 3 weeks, but Jamie took such amazing care of them and sent me pictures every single day, which put me at ease. After just 3 weeks with Jamie, my dogs are completely transformed. On the first day back from the program, I took my two German Shepherds on a long walk. We passed a huge Great Dane in a yard that was going crazy and lunging at them, but my dogs didn’t make a sound—they just calmly ignored him. This would have been unthinkable just three weeks ago! Thanks to Jamie and K9 Mania, I can now walk my dogs with zero anxiety about them reacting to other dogs. I cant wait to take them everywhere!

I cannot express enough gratitude for everyone at this facility! I highly recommend them to anyone in need. Their customer service is exceptional, receiving a perfect 10/10 rating from me.Harvey had a tendency to react strongly to other dogs. However, he was never aggressive and instead always wanted to play and greet every dog we passed by. This made it extremely challenging to walk him without him constantly pulling and tugging on the leash. At times, he would even throw himself in the air out of excitement. I used to describe him as overly friendly with other dogs. His behavior before often left me feeling embarrassed when taking him for walks or outside. Now, he doesn’t even care when another dog walks by us. I feel like he’s a brand new dog!I want to give a special shoutout to Kali for her incredible work with my boy. I cannot thank her enough for the progress she has made with him. Her passion for her work shines through in every progress video that was sent and session we attended. She consistently went above and beyond to ensure Harvey’s progress and provided me with valuable guidance and support. Her ability to communicate clearly and demonstrate proper techniques have made me confident in continuing training at home.Not only did Kali help Harvey become more well-behaved, but she also helped me feel more confident and empowered as a dog owner.I urge you to make your way here ASAP! The level of care and understanding they have for dogs with behavioral issues is truly remarkable.

I boarded my dog Oreo here this past summer and it was definitely one of the best decisions ever! Since a puppy Oreo was very reactive when it came to being in public with other unfamiliar dogs, it became very stressful to do a simple task like going for his daily walks. We had tried private trainers in the past and they worked temporarily but we never were able to fully understand how to build that confidence with Oreo. Criselda at K9 Mania was the best thing to happen for Oreo, from the start he was very comfortable with her and I could see that in the weekly update videoI would get. In such a short time Oreo made so much progress with understanding basic commands and being able to be surrounded by other dogs without reacting. At the midway session I saw how much Oreos attention shifted to listening to me with the help of Criselda! She was constantly making sure I understood how to build that confidence with giving commands to Oreo to follow and thoroughly made sure I knew how to use all the training tools K9 Mania provides. My family can’t thank Criselda and the staff enough for transforming Oreo, we can enjoy our daily walks and going out to new public spaces with him with a peace of mind! Thank you again Criselda :)

My Pitsky mix (Peach) just finished her 5-week boarding program and I am so happy with her transformation. I previously was unable to take Peach out on walks as she leash pulled and essentially dragged me around our neighborhood. Peach was also super reactive to other dogs, squirrels, birds, and rabbits and would growl at people walking by. I stopped taking her out on walks as I couldnt control her and walking her ended with me being super frustrated and anxious. I knew I needed to get professional help training her. I did a lot of research and found that K9 Mania would be the best place for Peach.I met with Olivia for a consultation and instantly felt she was a perfect match for Peach. Olivia detailed the entire process and informed me of the different techniques that would be used to help me with Peachs problem areas. Throughout Peachs boarding program I received constant updates in the form of texts, videos and pictures. I felt super comfortable and knew Peach was getting top tier training.I can now take Peach out on walks without her pulling and her reactivity has decreased tremendously. Olivia also took time to show me everything I need to continue the work at home and answered every question I had. I am so pleased with the entire program and with how thoughtful, informative and professional Olivia was. She took care of my girl and I am forever grateful for her.Highly recommend K9 Mania to anyone who needs help training their pup!

We took our young and rambunctious male Great Dane (Merlin) to K9 Mania to learn manners and be a polite and well behaved dog since he was going to be big. After his 3 week board and train he is an awesome boy. Walks on a slack leash, mostly ignores other animals while walking. And the most incredible thing is the PLACE command. When people come over or we are eating, we simply tell Merlin to PLACE and he heads to his spot and stays there until released.Post training a small amount of continuous training and walking help Merlin to continue to be a dog it is a pleasure to have.

K9 Mania Dog training helped our 4-month-old Labradoodle Cheddar go from “lovely trouble” to a well-behaved puppy who follows directions and understands boundaries.We were very fortunate to have such a skilled teacher as Nicole train Cheddar all of the basic commands in a skillful and supportive way. In addition, she provided us with excellent feedback and direction so that we could reinforce her lessons. The result was a dog who was better able to understand and meet our expectations.Nicole is a wonderful teacher who provides solutions tailored to our specific needs. She brings great energy and dedication to training.We highly recommend K9 Mania dog training—it helped make our adorable puppy even more fun to be around!

Cannot thank Nick and Janine enough for their training of our 3 year old mini aussie Hopkins. Before working with them we had fearful, reactive and biting dog that made it impossible to have people at our home. After just one session with K9 Mania we saw an incredible difference and were given so much knowledge and information to continue to work with Hopkins around our neighborhood. 5 weeks of training later were proud to say Hopkins graduated today and is truly a different pup. Nick is a gifted dog whisperer and they are both amazing to learn from. We highly recommend them!!!

As a first time pet mama, I sought out the best trainer not only for my little Milo, but for myself!I couldn’t be more happy with Jake and all that he taught us! My Milo absolutely adores him. Jake was extremely flexible with scheduling and provided me with resources with answers to all my questions. Not to mention, I was so proud of how quickly my Milo learned basic commands at such an early stage.The process in signing up and setting up a consultation was super easy thanks to the K9 Mania team. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking into dog training.Thank you guys for everything!

K9 Mania is hands down worth the investment. I brought my 11 month old French bulldog Jax to K9 mania with hopes we could get him to be a good listener and crate train him! The progress we saw in 3 weeks was amazing. We loved the video and photo updates throughout the process. Criselda was great with Jax and with me as we both had a lot of learning to do when it came to obedience training. I would recommend this place to anyone considering it. Can’t thank the staff enough.

I send my Husky mix, Nala to K9 Mania for a 4 week board and train program and I cannot recommend this facility more highly! My primary trainer was Kate who did an incredible job working with Nala and creating a trusting bond with her. Before K9 Mania my dog had very little recall off leash and would instantly jump up on my guests when they walked in the door. Now she is so good I can comfortably have her off leash in crowded spaces like my CrossFit gym or office and know that she will listen to all of my commands.

K9 mania is Bowsers favorite place to be. On a scale of 1-10 on how amazing this place is, we rate it a 100!!! We (my husband and I) enjoyed the whole process, it was very easy and we had an amazing trainer Sophia. (Bowsers new Titi❤️seriously thats his bff) but our dog is still the same silly guy but better and calmer then ever. Bowser did not needed to be boarded but he came every Friday for training for five weeks! We now feel comfortable and confident taking him into stores and also around our family and grandparents, knowing that he will not jump or knock them over since he is 80 pounds of pure love. He is also not yanking our arm on walks anymore and has become extremely less reactive with other dogs on walks. All of our problems have been addressed and fixed because of Sophia and a few other trainers showing us there methods as well. Also the at home training on the computer is amazing too! To be able to look back at just in case we have any questions or forget something. Another plus is every other Saturday are group classes which, we are able to socialize our dog in a safe controlled environment and learn new things with other owners. Its wonderful because its like a little family. We would totally recommend k9 mania to anyone that is looking for a place that their dog will learn and love. Seriously, we have never seen our dog more interested and proud of himself when he learns something new every time we came! We cant say enough good things!!! ❤️❤️ love love love you guys.

Janine and Nick are awesome. I used them in the past for my dog Hunter (a pitt retriever mix), but after having a baby and moving into a new place, he regressed quite a bit. So we decided to do it again, and I’m very happy we did. Walks are so much better, and I can actually walk him and the stroller at the same time (which I never thought would be possible). He’s doing much better in the apartment, and he even seems less anxious overall. Even playing is much better because they helped us with recall and dropping, which we originally had a really hard time with. Not to mention Hunter absolutely loves them. Overall a great experience, and I would recommend them to anyone for any kind of training, behavioral issues, etc. They really know what they’re doing. We’re very grateful for them!

Charlie had a difficult time when my daughter was born. He never liked new people coming to the house. It would take over an hour for him to calm down and we often had to use anti anxiety medication. We couldnt even open our blinds.Since his return home hes a completely different dog. Charlie is doing a great job not only with my daughter but my sister came for a weekend visit and he was phenomenal. Only took 15 minutes for him to calm down and sit with her. My wif and I were in utter shock!

It works. They know how to correct a dogs bad habits. All you need to do is continue with their system and use the key words and rewards. Watch the before and after videos, where the dogs are pulling, barking, and aggressive. Like a cruise, when everyone is in close quarters, dogs can contract coughs after a three week stay.

For starters, I would like to give a shoutout to our trainer, Criselda! Thanks to her training prowess, she has been able to transform Benji from being a heavily distracted puppy into an obedient and well-behaved one. She went above and beyond, and I really cant thank her enough. From the weekly videos to message updates, she made sure that I always knew what was happening and kept me well informed about the progress Benji has made. If you ever get the chance to have Criselda as your trainer, dont stress because I can assure you that youre in good hands. As for anyone who is considering signing their dog up for training I highly recommend K9 Mania being the place to go!Thank you!

We brought our 2.5yo GSD Diesel to K9 Mania to help him overcome his anxiety and aggression towards other dogs. Ashley did an absolutely incredible job working with Diesel. He has been literally transformed into a calm, happy member of the family. All his stressful behaviors are gone. We observed him well into his stay at the facility, in the vicinity of a King Shepherd, Cane Corsos, etc, and he didn’t bat an eye. Walking him has become a fun routine for all of us now and he’s excited to go out. My only regret is that it took us so long to come across K9 Mania. They are a godsend and I couldn’t recommend them enough to anyone for any size or breed of dog, with any issues. They are top notch trainers who treat the dogs very well!

Where to begin here? My husband and I often go away for long periods of time and were finding it increasingly more difficult to find someone that would watch our dog, Bruno, as he has become seemingly aggressive toward people that he does not know. He is also dog aggressive and highly reactive.I stumbled across K9 Dog Mania when searching for a place that I could trust to board him when I realized they also do training. I began following their Instagram and also watched a lot of content on their website. I reached out for more information and I was immediately contacted by Olivia, a dog trainer that specifically works with dog aggression. She was so sweet and truly knowledgeable as she answered all of my questions. I was sold on getting more information and brought Bruno in for a FREE consultation.When we arrived, Bruno immediately showed signs of aggression towards people as he barked and growled whenever someone would walk by. Olivia was not afraid and knew exactly how to handle Bruno. I was impressed. He didn’t bark at her or show any aggression towards her. He seemed to really respect her. She brought out a dog that was being trained for similar issues and man, I was impressed. This dog didn’t bat an eye while Bruno was lunging, snarling, growling, and barking. I wanted that positive behavior for my dog and we signed up that day for 3 weeks with an optional fourth.Olivia immediately began training from the day we dropped him off. She kept us updated via calls, texts, photos, and a video once per week so that we could be informed of his progress. We were truly impressed when we went in for our midway session, but we’re convinced Bruno could be even better, so we moved forward with a south week.When we picked him up, he seemed like his same goofy self, but when in command, really impressed us. Olivia took him on field trips to pet stores and Home Depot as well where Bruno was exposed to all kinds of people and other dogs.Because of Olivia’s hard work and dedication, Bruno is no longer reactive towards people or other dogs. While he knows they are there, he will ignore them and continue on. I can’t recommend this place enough. Truly life changing. Olivia is exceptional and I hope to return for regular boarding now that Bruno is trained. 🐾🦮🦴

I couldnt be happier! I was actually a little hesitant about keeping our first appointment because I knew there would be challenges for myself and my husband to take but Im so glad we did. I know that in time with continued practice Joey will respond better to commands, people, cars etc. He already has made progress in the 5 weeks Jeanine & Nick have been coming. Joey is only 4.5 lbs and their training doesnt involve roughness which I like. They are gentle but put pressure on him when needs to be.

I can’t express how AMAZING Nicole is!! I met with her about 6 or 7 weeks ago when i started training with my Doberman Luna, She’s 1 1/2 and has had training prior to this but i need her training to be reiterated and enforced at a new level! Nicole 1000% did that! She not only helped me learn she also brought Luna to a new heights. Luna is a smart cookie and Nicole knew exactly what needed to be done to get where we wanted to be. Nicole knows when to be stern and when to give them the positive praise they deserve!! We enjoyed our time with Nicole so much so that I wanted to continue on with training and take it even further with her!! I would recommended her to anyone who’s looking to get their pooch on the right track or even beginners!! She not only teaches the dog she teaches you as the owner to be better for your dog as well!! We love Nicole!!

I sent my 6 month old pitbull puppy to K9 mania and I couldn’t be happier. Everyone was so nice , professional and amazing at their job. Gabby was awesome and formed a great bond with my Jameson.

She kept us updated with pictures and videos so we felt confident he was in great hands and didn’t have anything to worry about.

K9 Manía and our assigned trainer Gaby (Gabriela Kaufman) were amazing to our old Man King, an 8 year old Blue nose pitbull. King was in training for 4 weeks for his leash biting, anxiety, and his reactivity towards other dogs, and his personal items (crate, and toys). Gaby had patience of an angel to be able to work with him; King could be very stubborn at times. It took a lot of hard work, but it was accomplished. King now knows how to properly walk on his leash, he’s non-reactive towards other dogs, and listens to commands. Thank you K9, and staff for your dedication!

Janine and Nick were amazing. Before they came to us I could not walk my 7 month old pit/lab rescue. He got so strong and when he locked on to another dog, person or even a bird he would pull me, at times even into the street. In 5 short weeks I can safely walk my pup anywhere. They gave us the knowledge and tools to do that. My pup no longer jumps on people, comes when called and walks by our side. Thank you Janine and Nick and k9. I will highly recommend you.

I would highly recommend K9 Manias at home training program! If you are willing to put in the work you will get amazing results. Janine was an absolute pleasure to work with and helped get my 4 month old GSP puppy, Goose, almost fully off leash trained with their 5 week at home program. Keep in mind, with the at home program you MUST put in the time to get the results you want. You have full access to your trainer via text and phone if any problems and/or questions may arise during the time between sessions. Again, I would highly recommend this training program, they give you all the tools to succeed if you put in the time and effort.

K9 Mania is amazing! My dog, Simba, just graduated today and I just couldnt wait to get home to let everyone know just how amazing the team at K9 Mania is.Before Simba did the board & train program here, he was very fearful of strangers and other dogs. It gave me, my mother and my husband a lot of anxiety when we would take him on walks because we never knew how he was going to react to people or dogs outside. He does not have a bite history, but it was still scary to see my sweet boy lunge or bark at people and other dogs!Then, we decided to bring Simba in for a consultation with Jake. From the minute we arrived at the facility, my husband and I felt comfortable but more importantly, Simba did too. During the consultation, Jake gave us the full run-down of what to expect Simba to be working while hed be there and also gave us an idea of what is going to be expected of us as well. Because of how amazing Jake was and how knowledgeable he was, we decided we were going to do the Board & Train program.While Simba was away, we missed him so so much! But the team at K9 Mania did an EXCELLENT job at keeping us updated. Grace was Simbas trainer and I just have to say.. GRACE ROCKS! Grace is so awesome. She kept us posted on his progress and did such an amazing job training Simba. We got weekly videos and pictures from Annie (Thank you Annie!! Youre awesome

New Post. My latest stay with K-9 Mania was from 12/25/24 to 01/06/24. I canot say enough about how great they are. I love my dog Anubis and they love him too. They take such good care of him. They do everything to make Anubis happy and us happy. Every time I go away and have to board him, I will only board him with K-9 Mania. I never have to worry if he is being well taken care of. I highly, highly recommend them if you need to board your dog or have your dog trained. They do an outstanding job of making sure that you and your dog are happy. I would rate them higher if I could.New boarding with K9 Mania.12-23-23 to 01/04/24. As always our dog comes home happy and healthy. The trainers at K9 Mania are all great especially Olivia. She took care of our dog. Shes Awesome. I feel very comfortable having leaving Anubis with K9 Mania. This is our sixth time that our dog has stayed with them and he just loves it.I really like how they care for our dog. K9 Mania gets 5 Stars for me.My dog child Anubis, who we love so dearly has stayed with K9 Mania 4 times since 09/22 and I could honestly say that we left him in great hands with K9 Mania. Valeria is in charge of the boarding program. She is such a lovely person to work with and very accommodating. Honestly, they did such a great job boarding him that Anubis was sad to come home. My trainer Sean, is so fantastic. He has trained Anubis to be such an obedient dog. He is so well behaved and he has addressed all the issues we hadpreviously before training started. I highly recommend K9 Mania for anyone looking for a great place to board there 🐕 dog and their training program is fantastic for correcting all issues your dog may have. Our dog came back so well behaved. I really felt very comfortable leaving him there knowing hes in great hands. If I could give them a higher rating, I would. They get a five out of five stars from me.We actually boarded Anubis in April and May of 2024 for 5 and 6 days, respectively. They were awesome as always. They take care of our dog like family. We feel very confident every time we leave him there that hes in great hands. He actually looks forward to being there. He knows hes going there as were on the road and gets all excited. Were going away for 2 weeks next month and guess where hes staying, K-9 Mania. Theyre the best.

Do not bring your dogs to k9 mania for boarding. My husband brought out dog there for a week, end of August 2024, because we went on a vacation. Prior to the stay, our dog received requested vaccination and was up to date with vet exams. After the stay, our dog came home acting passive, wanting to lay down and sleep mostly, in an hour or so his nose began to run and then got stuffed after, making his breathing very labored, he started to sneez reddish-yellow mucus and ran a fever and diarrhea. We took him to the vet, ran blood tests and an exam. During the stay my dog lost 4 lb of wheight and the manager of the facility claims no responsibility and basically washes their hands off any problems.

3rd Time’s the charmWe are current owners of a douge de Boudreaux (French Mastiff) who came to us during the height of the pandemic in 2020 as a 7lb puppy who has now grown into a 145lb dog we could not control. Because Kaine was never properly socialized (again due to the pandemic) taking him on walks was an absolute nightmare! Kaine would lunge at strangers, he would run after kids on bikes/scooters, and he would attack dogs on the street. It got to a point where walking him was just too risky and he became a who’s daily exercise just consisted of being in our backyard – which is not the life I wanted for my dog so I knew we needed help.The first trainer we found did not believe in using food as a reward to train dogs and used fear instead which Kaine did not react well to; The second trainer we found while he used food to train - - thought Kaine needed to burn out his energy and used agility training – which was great for that day but because he did not address obedience Kaine was still a nightmare to walk!At this point being cooped up in the house all day not being able to take him on walks Kaine, at 145lbs became unmanageable. Enter Nick and Janine - - this was my very last attempt to train Kaine. He was going to be a dog that just lived in the house if this didn’t work. From day one of meeting Nick I knew this training was going to be different – while I was outside speaking to Nick an Amazon driver approached the house which is Kaine’s cue to attempt to bite and all Nick said in a very calm voice was “No” and Kaine went back on the step and sat down. Nick had the job!!There was 6 weeks of training which I’m not going to sugar coat was not the easiest for me because Kaine had to be tethered to me at all times. Imagine a 145lb dog always in your way? – but it worked in order to establish control in the home. Every weekend Nick and Janine would come by the house and take Kaine on walks - - there was no pulling, there was no lunging, there was no shock collar being applied, there was no hard corrections, there was no yelling, there was no trying to dominate a dog his size – there was just a flimsy $20 lead that Nick used to gain control over Kaine.I’m sorry this review is so long - - but you have to understand how much of a liability this dog was to us prior to Nick and Janine – I was dragged on walks, I was yelled at by strangers (rightfully so) at my lack of ability to control my dog - - and because of Nick and Janine, Kaine is able to walk outside again and is a much happier and well-mannered dog! I am honestly forever indebted to them for getting us here!

Wow! Thank you K9 Mania and a special thank you to Jake.We couldn’t be happier with Ripley’s 3 week board and train program. Jake was with us from our first consult call, to the first in person consult, all the way to finish. We were given weekly updates with videos on Ripley’s training status. It was really important for us as owners to know that K9 Mania’s program also includes sessions for the human family members. Success of this program is built on a team approach from pup to human. The continuity of this program works. Just a back story, Ripley is a APBT, and we adopted from NYC ACC. He was about a year old and came in as a stray. All we knew is he was potty trained, but other than that we started from scratch when it came to obedience training. He’s a hell of a strong pup with a huge amount of expendable energy that never seemed to calm down. Just to give an idea, my husband is 6 ft and 234lb, Ripley walked him. Ripley also want to meet and say hi to everyone human and non human. He also has a huge pray drive. We needed help to better control him to keep him safe. That’s where Jake and K9Mania came in! We just picked Ripley up on 11/22 and already on our first walk we see a MAJOR difference; we had a loose leash, no pulling and he stayed in heel!!! He certainly had some distractions, but we were able to easily get him back to keeping his attention on us. There is so much more I could write, but I would end up writing a book, so to conclude this already very long post, my husband and I are beyond thrilled with Rips training and we are content knowing that we now have K9Mania as our help and support moving forward.Thank you!

We loved our 6 week basic obedience training with Janine. She listened to our concerns and provided us with all the tips to follow at home to reinforce the behavior. We have seen such a great difference in our puppy since starting the training. Highly recommend!

We had our Kiki in the board and train program at K9 Mania and we thank Criselda (the trainer) for taking care of Kiki and improving her behavior. Criselda was professional and helpful in transitioning Kiki’s training back at home. We could also tell that Kiki loved Criselda when we picked her up. We had an amazing experience and definitely recommend.

Told me its $5600 to leave my dog here for 3 weeks Im not allowed to visit him until the halfway and the end. They told me my vets food recommendations were garbage and I should feed raw meat to my dog. ... Raw meat can cause illness and bacteria. I was told by the workers that they punish the dogs when they dont listen to the command and the punishment gets worse Everytime they dont listen . Refused to say what it was besides holding the leash tighter. Said the dogs only go home. If they mutilate themselves badly and or lost 5-10% of theirs body weight or dont eat for 10 days straight...Go out for 5+ training sessions a day for 15 minutes. Get fed twice a day with only ten minutes and if they dont eat they starve until they do.Was told dogs that bite need to keep the basket muzzle on the first week 24/7 and will need to be trained to eat with the muzzle before being dropped off. The dogs stay in basically large cat carriers the other 22 hours a day for 3 weeks with a basket muzzle on... And I was told their worst case lost 20lbs and escaped the cage overnight and was stuck until morning crew found him...Was told dogs that have mutilated themselves from anxiety while they were here and one was very sickly.Yes they use shock and prong collars.They dont use the food you want.Theres no one there at night to watch them.He said I need stop seeing my adult dog as a parent-child relationship ... And that my Aussie would be happier living in a crate 20 hours a day and should only be out 4-5 hours a day...Yikes!Always avoid a place where you cant visit your own pets. If they say it will set them back whenever your pet sees you, then what happens when you pick the dog up to go home?Also learning in a controlled environment with strangers inside a warehouse (where theres maybe abuse or at minimum a shock collar on) isnt the same as at home. These board and train facilities dont work!Avoid sick, weight loss, shock collars and 20 hour crate days for $5500 minimum.Big yikes-vet tech

Criselda did a great job with Briggs! When we first brought Briggs for board and train; he was a very excited, easily distracted, attention barking dog who did not listen to commands. Criselda was able to break all his bad habits and we now have a very well behaved dog. He no longer pulls during walks, barks for attention and we can now have company over without a problem. She was professional and took very good care of our dog. Would highly recommend Criselda to anyone having trouble training their dog. Thank youu so much for the help!!

My mini dachshund Ollie seemed untrainable to me and my family. Thanks to Janine and Nick I have a perfect little puppy. I am so grateful to K9 Mania; Janine and Nick for their time and patience not Just with Ollie but with me as well.

We worked with John at K9 and had a terrific experience. Birdie, our rescue pitbull mix, had some behavioral issues which improved dramatically over the few months we worked with John. We are so thrilled with the results - our friends and family constantly say Birdie has made so much progress and is a completely different dog. John was also a pleasure to work with and checked in on us throughout the time we worked with him.

We were very impressed with this training facility and the entire staff. The facility is very clean and well maintained. From the first phone call, evaluation and drop off to pick up everyone at K9 Mania was professional and friendly. They made Sage’s time at board and train an amazing experience for her and us.This was the first time Sage was boarded and we were a little apprehensive but Gaby’s frequent photos, videos and phone calls put our minds at ease.Her skill, professionalism and genuine caring transformed our fearful and reactive 4 year old German Shepherd into a confident dog without her reactive issues.Thank you Gaby and K9 Mania for a rewarding and pleasant experience!

Our dog Thor is doing great after we signed him up for the Board & Train program.

My husband and I are so happy we found K9 Mania. Our puppy Mooshu started her first class when she was 8 weeks old and now she officially graduated at 7 months old.

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with K9mania and specifically Erika. She fully transformed my dog and focused on many things that I noticed about his behavior. She was always able to answer every question we had and went out of her way to always make sure we understood everything. I also really like that the dogs are weighed weekly and that their health is important just as much as the training. I would highly recommend K9 Mania & can never thank Erika enough for all she did for us!!

I cant say enough about our experience with Ariella. She is such a lovely person and so reliable and professional. She is very knowledgeable and really helpful in determining what was best to help our older dog get adjusted to a new puppy. She helps come up with solutions and offers advice with routines and schedules etc. You can tell that she really loves the work that she is doing because it shows with her level of care and commitment. My dogs love her as well. High recommend Ariella!!

We absolutely LOVED working with Nick & Janine. We had our doubts with our stubborn frenchie puppy, Kylo, but the transformation over the 5 week program was incredible. Wouldnt have been able to do it without Nick & Janines guidance. Nick was excellent with Kylo, while Janine kept reinforcing our training as dog owners (at times it felt we needed to be trained more than the dog haha). We would definitely recommend K9 Mania to all of our friends and family and happily give them a 5 star rating! Kylo already misses his training buddies. Thank you so much K9 Mania for your help!

Prior to K9 Mania, my partner and I have never used a Board and Train company. We were definitely nervous at first but once we met Jayden who is one of the dog trainers, we knew that our puppy Griffin was in the best care. Over the 3 weeks that Griffin was there, we received numerous pictures and video updates on how he was doing and seeing the growth out of his bad habits has been nothing but amazing! We cannot thank Jayden enough for everything that he done with Griffin and we hope more people choose K9 Mania!

My 5 year old lab mix did great at k9 Mania. We enrolled him in the 4 week board and train program. Jayden was his trainer and he was fantastic. I felt completely comfortable putting my dog in his hands. My dog came home well trained, less anxious and an all-around happier pup. He has since been back for boarding while we were away. He was happy to see all of his human friends and didn’t even hesitate when they took him back to the boarding area. It’s great to have a place where I know he is safe and loved. Every staff member I encountered at k9 mania was so kind and loving with my dog. I recommend them without hesitation.

Thank you so much for the training! On a scale I would rate the experience a 5 mainly for the patience that was shown towards me and my dog by the trainers of the facility. Furthermore I appreciate the services provided by the program and trainer even beyond the initial three week program with the follow-up class with the additional classes available for a low cost. Overall there was no stress on my part and Im leaving the program with new skills and the confidence to use them.

We used K9 Mania board and train services for our golden doodle. Cooper was basically a good boy but followed commands when he felt like it. We definitely needed help as we were unable to break him of this bad habit. Monica was his trainer and she was absolutely wonderful with him. We could tell that he adored her. Of course best of all is that he now follows commands. We are so happy we made this choice. Should we ever need help in the future, they are a phone call away. And if we should ever have another dog, we wouldn’t hesitate to use K9 Mania in the future. And we would definitely request Monica.Thank you for taking such good care of our pup!!

These photos never could have happened with out Criselda. She changed our relationship with our Jinx and Penny. They were reacting to each-other and we couldn’t keep them together in a room.

My pup and I had a great experience with our trainer Jake- I am a first time dog owner and I was guided through ALOT of commands and situations to be in charge of how my dog acts.. we are definitely more in sync since our weekly training and we are able to bring our dog Romeo everywhere. He’s great on a leash and he has become a fantastic listener. and we go to the dog park and spend a lot of time in our unfenced yard without any problems!

K9 Mania was a god send. Elliott patiently and effectively taught my 1 1/2 year old Scottish Terrier puppy how to obey basic commands and walk properly on a leash. But most importantly, he gave me the tools I need to positively reinforce the behavior and keep up the good work. My little guy is a new and improved version of his adorable self. Thanks Elliott!

Diors training at K9 Mania was outstanding.The leash training provided was thorough and effective, helping Dior learn to walk calmly and confidently. The commands taught were clear and precise, leading to quick obedience from Dior. Crate training was successful, with Dior feeling comfortable and secure in his crate. Place training was also well-executed, with Dior quickly understanding where to go and stay. Overall, Diors training at K9 Mania was top-notch, resulting in a well-behaved and disciplined puppy.

Choosing K9 Mania was one of the best decisions we’ve made for our beloved pup Cash & family. After bringing home our newborn, Cash was extra nervous and reactive to the baby. We immediately called K9 Mania and met with Sophia. She was kind and transparent with us at our initial visit & we felt confident enough to leave Cash with them that night. I am INCREDIBLY GRATEFUL for Cash’s trainer, Gaby. She is a sweetheart and took the time to understand Cashs needs. She created a customized plan for our family that includes two young boys & a baby. Her passion for what she does shines through & shows in Cash’s new confidence. We have seen such a difference in Cash since he’s been home & we couldn’t be happier. He’s listening to commands, playful, happy and so much less anxious. He doesn’t even react to our newborn anymore! Everyone is more at ease at home now. If you are looking for a skilled and compassionate trainer, ask for Gaby. You will not be disappointed. Thank you to Gaby and the rest of K9 mania for giving us a safe, happy place for Cash to learn & become the more confident dog he’s now showing us he is.

Hes very responsive and available if needed, and sends us tips and reflections after every session. Its almost like I have a new dog; I couldnt be more more excited to see Cabo grow into a more obedient dog. Philip is such a gem, very patient, very helpful, and overall amazing.

I had tried Petco obedience class before with my pup, Loki when I first adopted her. She did okay-ish,...but then after a few months, I knew I had to get real training for her since she almost ran away from home twice. I googled and found K9 Mania!! And Im SO glad I did. I got paired up with our trainer, Ashlee and omg....the improvements that Loki has shown are tremendous! We are on our way to being CGC certified and Im hoping to further her training to be a therapy dog. Ashlee is SO amazing, professional, kind, calm, knowledgable, patient, EVERYTHING youd ever want in a trainer and moree!!!!!! With her training us, I feel so confident that Loki and I can achieve all of our goals and succeed!! We love Ashlee and our training program so much!!!

Dominique is an extraordinary trainer and extremely patient. The team gave us constant updates and took great pictures! It was definitely a hard four weeks without her, but being able to see her progress and be able to immediately notice a difference in the midway made it all worth it! Cannot thank you all enough!

I would like to thank the fantastic staff for the wonderful treatment with our Pomeranian Oliver. We brought him with severe anxiety and unable to walk on a leash and constant barking along with crying. Gabby was nothing short of amazing with the way she cared for him. He’s an older dog that was set in his ways and she had a very difficult job. She completely changed his behavior. He’s much calmer, a pleasure to walk with and for the most part he’s obedient. I can’t thank Gabby and staff enough and would recommend them to anyone.

What an incredible experience we had with K9 Mania. Our two dogs required so much attention and training, and to be honest I was doubtful that they could be fixed. I was mistaken. After 3 week board and train, it’s as if we have new dogs now. Zach was our trainer, and he could not have been any better. We received constant communication from the facility, and would recommend K9 to anyone else that was in our position. If you want to change your dog(s) for the better, this is the place for you!

I rate this experience a 10. My family was not convinced about leaving Scarlet for four weeks at training camp. But she was extremely dog aggressive and it had become a safety issue for her and us when we would walk her. While she had been obedience trained we were unable to provide the quantity of dogs and the time resource that was needed to train her properly. Olivia assured us this was the right step to stop the barking, lunging and pulling that scarlet was doing. And she was completely correct. We brought home a dog that was not only well behaved and knew all her commands. But a dog that is a now a pleasure to walk down the street without having to worry about other dogs also being out. She no longer drags me into the road nor lunges at dogs. Olivia stayed in constant contact with us and kept us up to date on her progress. I would recommend this program to anyone that has a dog with behavioral issues and specifically Olivia as she really understood Scarlet and you could see she genuinely cared about her. Once we were comfortable we stopped worrying and knew Scarlet was in excellent hands.

After Criselda worked with him he now listens to every command, walks great on a leash and is improving everyday on his aggression towards other dogs.

Review №142

Our dog Theo was never a good listener. He was a rescued pup that was about 8 weeks old when we got him. He always had behavioral issues, such as destroying anything on the floor, jumping on people and counters, not knowing when to listen. At about 1 and a half years of age he started to show some signs of aggression, such as growling at people and also would bark at anyone. We did not want it to progress any further and we didn’t even know how to control him with his basic commands. He would only listen when he wanted too and that was a huge problem, luckily we found K9 mania and they were ready to help. Our trainer was Ashlee and she was amazing! As any dog owners would be I was very upset that he had to leave for so long and I was nervous that it wouldn’t work. K9 mania was so informative while he was there and we were even able to visit for a training session during this time. It made us feel so much more comfortable to know that we were being updated multiple times a week and getting videos of our pup. We had just got him home a couple of days ago and couldn’t be happier with the outcome! Thank you to Ashlee and the rest of the K9 mania crew for helping our pup become happy and confident !

My wife and I couldn’t be happier with the training our just about 1 yr old Shepherd/Husky mix, Ozzie. He was part of the board and train program. He has truly learned a lot from his time with the entire staff there and particularly Ashlee who spent a lot of time working with him. Now it’s up to my wife and I to take over his training at home. Thus far since he’s been home a week, we’ve be able to see him doing all they taught him for us.Great job K9 Mania!

Review №145

We thoroughly enjoyed our dog training experience for Scruffy with trainers Nick and Janine. Not only have we seen remarkable improvements in his behavior, but weve also found that walking him has become a much more enjoyable and stress-free activity. Hes become noticeably better behaved around other dogs and people, which has made outings more pleasant for everyone.One valuable insight for those considering hiring a dog trainer is that while the training service equips you with the essential tools and knowledge, it ultimately requires ongoing effort and commitment from the owners to fully reap the benefits. The trainer provides the guidance, but its up to the owners to consistently apply what theyve learned to achieve lasting results.In summary, our experience with dog training for Scruffy has been highly positive, and the positive changes in his behavior have significantly enriched our lives.

My husband and I had a great experience with K9 Mania! Our puppy Oakley behavior is definitely improving and he is listening more. Janine and Nick were great teachers and really worked with you. They were very thorough on what they were teaching and taught us great skills that we will implement on Oakley going forward.

Review №148

Started off with a positive and hopeful outlook with our initial consult Jayden who assured us that our 4 month old Basenji puppy was old enough for the board and train program. Sadly, after spending over $3000 and leaving our puppy for 3 weeks we saw no changes in the biggest concerns we had discussed (crate training, separation anxiety and recall). No crate training was done during the 3 weeks there, he still cannot stay home alone and the separation anxiety had only gotten worse. On top of all this, when we returned for our 1 week follow up and expressed our concerns, we were ignored and told that our pup was supposedly crate trained by locking him in the kennel overnight and not actually trained in a crate outside of the boarding facility as a safe space. Our pup also was not trained by Jayden on a daily basis as we were initially told and assured ( I honestly feel that his training was barely done at all). We were told that our concerns would be rectified by the owner (Elliot) and never heard back. Save your money and energy and find an honest establishment that will tell you what the likelihood of success would be for your fur baby and specifically the breed traits. They definitely do NOT live upto their “train any dog, any breed and any behavior issue” motto. They are over capacitated and only are looking to increase their revenue instead delivering the education that they promise to do so.

Review №149

I was extremely hesitant about doing a board and train because had never done that in the past and especially since our dog is a rescue I didnt want him to feel abandoned. Even though he is a very high energy dog no matter how much physical exercise he got he had this anxiety and nervousness all the time, then he started nipping and although he was not trying to hurt us and wasnt aggressive it started getting pretty bad. I knew I had to get some help with training. We went in for the consultation and Sophia is awesome, she explained everything, addressed all my concerns and most importantly to me I could see they clearly love and care for the dogs so I knew this was definitely the rite place! Within the first week with his trainer Dominique (who was also amazing and he loved) I couldnt believe the difference so quickly. She kept me updated the entire time including videos showing theyre progress, pics and even took him out on field trips. She was extremely thorough in making sure we knew exactly what to do and understood everything. He walks with me on lease now instead of pulling, he doesnt bark and pull when he sees other dogs he wants to play with and he is so much calmer and confident now! Sorry I know this was very long but if you are looking for training for your dog I couldnt think of a better place!

Olivia,I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt appreciation for the incredible work you have done with my beloved fury son, Bruiser. Your dedication, expertise and patience have truly transformed our lives.Before we started training with you, Bruiser had some behavioral issues that left us feeling frustrated and overwhelmed. Your training techniques, tailored specifically to Bruisers needs, made all the difference. Watching Bruiser respond positively made all the difference and is nothing short of remarkable.Your passion for dogs and your ability to communicate with them was evident in every session. You not only taught Bruiser important commands but also helped Mark and I understand the psychology behind their behavior, making us better and more responsible pet owners.Thanks to YOU, Bruiser is now well behaved, happy and confident companion. Our walks are enjoyable and our bond has strengthened beyond measure. Mark and I owe this transformation to your unwavering commitment and expertise.Wishing you continued success in your dog training journey. You are a true asset to the canine community and we wholeheartedly recommend your services to anyone seeking the best for their fury family members.Warmest regards,

To anyone considering doing K9 Mania Dog Training, do it! I only have the best things to say. Before finding K9, we felt helpless with our dog, Hopper. He was so over excited and hyper which made it almost impossible to control him at home. He didnt listen and had some aggression with certain things. We couldnt have people over the house because he would get so crazy.Our trainer, Erika, changed all of that for us. She was in constant communication with me throughout the four weeks - sending videos and pictures all the time. She answered all my questions throughout. She treated Hopper like her own dog which we appreciated so much! We cant thank her enough - she is truly incredible!Now, it is on us to practice all the things he learned at home. We feel so much more motivated and hopeful for our future with Hopper. It has only been a short time since he has been home, and things have changed so much. He is calmer and is listening so much better. We can actually see a peaceful life together at home!Thank you K9!!

Were still trying to have Bear learn the commands at home between our work lives & our daughter but he definitely listens a lot more, and his temperament has calmed down quite a bit. Thankfully no accidents yet inside & he sleeps in his crate no problem now. So all in all I think it was successful in just laying the groundwork to be perfected over time, as well as helping to teach us how to properly reinforce & teach commands to him. Bear is an 8month old husky-Pom/Aussie and for him he’s very overexcited around people & I feel this helped open the doorway for him to hear us, but also for us to connect on a better level. I’m not looking to change who he is, just wanted him to be more obedient & able to be calmed down.

Sent my dog Milo (3 years old) there for Board and train right before giving birth. The process was super professional, they send pictures while the dog is with them to make the time apart easier. They tailor the training to what you want to work on. Our trainer was Criselda she is really nice and professional. Milo is so much calmer now, Criselda help me give him a good foundation to be a well behaved dog. Would definitely recommend.

Our experience with Janine and Nick was amazing. We have a reactive pittie who struggles with a variety of situations. Nick quickly was able to teach her how to respond to many of these. Janine and Nick are confident and knowledgeable trainers and this experience was a thousand times better than our last with a different trainer. They are friendly, responsive, and well worth the time and money. We now feel we have the tools we need to continue training our dog to give her the best life possible for her. I would also say it is cool that both Nick and Janine came to all sessions so while one is working with the dog the other explains what is happening and how to do it properly. By the end of our sessions Roxy was in love with them. Thank you Janine and Nick! 11/10.

After trying a few other trainers with little success, we decided to go with k9 mania. We chose the 5 week hybrid course. Our trainer was Criselda. She is a very knowledgeable, passionate trainer. Our dog, Henry, was skittish, reactive, and very difficult to control on a leash. With the guidance and patience from Criselda, Henry showed improvement each and every week. The best part about this program is that while he is learning, Criselda is giving us the tools and confidence to get the most out of our dog. If you are looking for a dog trainer, I would highly recommend using k9 mania.

From the first day that we met with our trainer Nicole, it was evident that her knowledge and expertise in dog training was just what our family needed! Nicoles patience not only helped train our goldendoodle puppy but she worked with our 3 kids during each lesson. It was important for all of us to participate in the training and Nicole helped guide us each step of the way! Prior to our 1st lesson with Nicole, it was difficult to take Gunner outside for a walk without getting pulled in every direction. Now that Gunner graduated, we are able to go on long walks with such ease and pleasure! I highly recommend K9 Mania and Nicole! 🐕‍🦺🐶

I dropped my dog Milo off a month ago. He was having trouble with his anxiety and obedience training. He spent 4 weeks with Kate and I am astonished by his improvement. He is less anxious and more obedient. His transformation is exactly what I was looking for and I cannot thank Kate and the K9 team enough.

When we first walked in with our Argentina Dogo Jax he had behavioral problems, and was not listening to anything we would tell him. We had gotten olivia as our trainer and she was fantastic. She had given Jax all love and patience, and she gave him the same love we give him. They worked with all his needs and our wants towards his training. She was fantastic.Overrall k9 mania is amazing and definitely is the place for your dog.

We had major issues with our dog in terms of pulling on the leash during every walk. This pulling caused multiple falls and continued over 2 year period. Nicole, instructor from K9 Mania, was able to train us and our dog. All the pulling that was happening outside during walks ended in just 2 lessons. We are now able to enjoy the walks with our 4 legged buddy. Nicole gave us a ton of other tips and practiced other useful techniques with us in getting the dog to become more obedient. Thanks to Nicole our family and our dog are much happier. I wish we had met Nicole much earlier.

It was so wonderful to work with Jaimie! He is very knowledgeable And passionate about his work. You can tell that he loves dogs and wants the best for them. Jaimie took the time to understand our dog Angel, her history, needs and and preferences to get the best results. He shared tons of information and articles so that we can take the reins on training our dog. He was flexible with scheduling and 100% professional. Our pup went from being aggressive and disobedient to a sweet girl. We feel more confident bringing her in public and on walks. Thank you Jaimie and the entire staff at K9 Mania!

I would definitely recommend K9 Mania Dog Training. Our trainer Nicole helped us take back our home. Which was being run by our 80lb German Shepherd puppy, Ollie! She was professional and easy to talk to about our concerns. Nicole found the right method that Ollie responded to and helped us reinforce that training. I found it very helpful to have the trainer come to our home and help train Ollie in his own environment. Nicole took the time to make sure not only my husband and I but our kids also, were comfortable with the training and more importantly cared that we were doing the best thing for our family ❤

If you want to have your dog trained in a save and loving environment with caring instructors, K 9 Mania is the right place for your fur baby. The staff is professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. They customize training for your specific needs. Their price is worth every penny. Please trust my review. K-9 Mania is a very reliable place to bring your dog for training. You will be very glad you did.

Cant say enough about the positive experience with K9 Mania training.I got my dog, Buddy as a 1yr old rescue. Sweet with people from day one but was super leash aggressive around dogs (not to mention squirrels and cats).For about a year+, I would use avoidance as a training tool when I walked him so decided to finally give in and get him professional guidance and Im so glad I did.Janine and Nick were both amazing. Not only did Buddy take to them both right away, but he quickly picked up on the concepts and leash training that Nick was showing him.Just as important were the tools they showed ME. Thats the best part about the training. Its not just the hands on aspect with the dog, its explaining the theory and concepts of what works and doesnt work. They taught me that Buddy picks up on my vibes and my actions. If those arent consistent and proper, your dog wont respond as he/she should.Lastly, I appreciated the dynamic of the sessions. Nick would take Buddy and work with him on the leash around other dogs, and in general, while Janine would explain and elaborate on the techniques used for Buddy while answering any questions I may have. Then, of course, I would take the reigns and Nick would critique how I handled Buddy and work on where I was lacking. (Only Buddy got a diploma tho, not me :).Overall, it was incredibly worthwhile to work with Janine and Nick and K9. Even beyond sessions, if I had a question during the week, Janine would always respond. I didnt just feel like another number on the client list.While Im still working with Buddy as we go on here, the positive difference in him in the outside world is extremely tangible. He used to not really respond to me at all. I was just someone holding him back, it felt like. Now, he acknowledges me a lot more, and the walks are more of a partnership than someone just holding on for dear life when a dog walks by.I have K9 Mania, Janine and Nick to thank for that!Def worth your time and peace of mind. Do it.

Our Pomsky Sofie completed a four weekboard and train program. Throughout her stay, we were regularly given updates including pictures and videos of Sofie, and it was clear Sofie was in great hands, especially those of her trainer Dominique. Sofie made visible improvements that progressed each week she was there. At our midway session with Dominique, Sofie’s leash walking and listening to commands was already so impressive. Sofie has been able to maintain her high level of obedience after she returned home, and K9 made it possible! We highly recommend K9 Mania, Dominique and all the staff to help with any training your dog may need!

I worked with Janine for 6 sessions and found the results to be incredible. I feel far more in control of my dog’s behavior now and I also feel like my dog has a lot more trust in me. I would definitely recommend K9 Mania to anyone that is considering dog training. I think the most important thing is that you stick with the training and work on the things you and your dog learn in session consistently. You will see results! Janine was an incredible trainer to work with and very much knew her stuff. I could tell within seconds that she was very experienced and would help me and our dogs!

We had a wonderful experience with Janine and Nick, training our dog Ripley. We started training Ripley, our mini Aussiedoodle at about 4 months old. At only 6 months old he is almost fully trained off leash! They were super helpful and accommodating with scheduling. They were always giving us things to work on and we followed through. Even not during sessions, we were able to text or call with questions and they were so responsive! We have such an amazingly trained dog that we can take anywhere with us! So thankful to Janine and Nick and all their hard work with Ripley! Would 100% recommend!

My experience with Janine and Nick was a 10 but I guess I have to settle for a 5. Working with them has brought a new level of bonding for Finn and I. I can confidently walk with him and enjoy him so much more with all of the control I have now. I feel confident bringing him everywhere with me. Janine and Nick went above expectations by showing me how to handle different situations with a very strong lab. These lessons for Finn and I were just what we needed and I am so glad Janine and Nick were our trainers. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Nicole was amazing, my wife Danielle and I rescued our pit bull about a year ago and for the most part he was a good dog but didn’t really listen to Danielle and pulled her on walks. Nicole worked with us in our home over 5 weeks and the difference was remarkable, not only does Beau listen and walk better he became the best version of himself. Strongly recommend using them for your pet needs.

K9 Mania training was a perfect match for my 14 month old Doberman Pinscher, Rocco! Janine and Nick worked so well with my dog. They were skilled and professional and knew exactly how to handle Rocco. He listened to them eagerly as they easily and gently corrected his behavior while walking on a leash. They really know how to handle dogs no matter how energetic or misbehaved they are. It was a PLEASURE watching them train my pup! Rocco loved when they came to work with them and they taught my husband and I how to easily handle and correct our 90 lb dog. We are so grateful! Thank you K9 Mania!!!

Nick & Janine are two of the most INCREDIBLE people we have ever met. They are so knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire 5 weeks, answering any and all questions. They treated our dog with such respect and dignity at all times, having such compassion for the animals they work with. They stressed the importance of actually practicing what they preach, & the commitment it is with your dog. If you do the work and practice what they show, your dog will respond so well. Our girl has had such improvement! 5 stars isn’t a high enough rating for them. Two wonderful humans with such a great knowledge and practice. An awesome experience!

Review №175

Our two dog trainers, Janine and Nick, were outstanding! Not only did they train our dog but they trained us on how to continue training our dog in the future. They explained the reasoning behind everything they do and they train the dog to pay attention to you and what you want your dog to do and not be distracted by all of the stimulus in the surrounding environment. They are both lovely people and our dog, Bessie, loved them also. She was not afraid of them because they made corrections in a nice way, not a way that would in any way hurt her. Our dog started off barking at every person, car, and dog that she would see on our walks and we could never go over to speak to a person because they wanted to stay away from us due to her bad behavior. Now, after only 6 lessons, she never barks at people, does not run after cars and she will now go up to other dogs and greet them nicely. She is a changed dog! I would recommend Janine and Nick from K9 Mania Dog Training with my highest commendations and we will recommend them to any of our friends or neighbors who want their dogs to behave properly.Stephen and Donna C.

I can’t believe it. i just took my dog for a walk on the crowded side of town full of people and cars and bikes and my dog Milo was literally being a model citizen and not a complete menace on the streets like he used to😂 Milo used to be very reactive and consistently barked and lunged at anything and everything that moved. during today’s walk, he walked by my side, listened to my commands while staying focused on me and most importantly, we enjoyed our walk together without being nervous or frustrated! K9 Mania is more than just training. they help YOU understand and work with your dog. and BIG THANK YOUUUU TO OUR TRAINER SOPHIA!!!!! she worked her magic with Milo and transformed him into a completely different dog. she’s truly remarkable explaining everything we needed to know and we’re so lucky to have gotten her as a trainer. thank you Sophia!

We could not be more pleased with our experience of training via Nick and Janine! We have a pitbull mix who has shown dog major aggression in the past.After training with Nick this behavior has completely changed to the point where at the last session he was licking another dog in the face. He listens better than ever and is now much easier to walk /control in the neighborhood where we often encounter other dogs.Our family and friends have also given us the feedback how calm and behaved Luke has become! They feel much more comfortable walking him given his recent adoption of new commands- we could not recommend Nick and Janine more and feel so fortunate to have been connected with them!

10/10 - would HIGHLY recommend. I have a pretty big golden retriever and had been through a couple trainers when I brought Bentley into k9 mania. I was concerned about his jumping on people and having control over him when he was around on our newborn baby. Sean (HIGHLY recommend) worked with Bentley over the course of 3 weeks and completely transformed his behavior. He no longer jumps on people, his behavior is completely structured around the commands he learned (heel, place, sit, down, recall), and he ever learned how to walk on leash next to the stroller with our baby in it!k9 mania and Sean were super easy to work with. They provided plenty of timely updates. They even send you videos on a weekly basis on how your dog is doing and show you the progress theyve made. They also provide a follow up session in case you need any additional help after bringing your dog home. All the staff loved my dog and made me feel comfortable to leave him there. Overall, I had an excellent experience with them and would highly recommend.

Highly recommend K9! Super professional and courteous and they know their stuff. Ashlee was amazing- patient and flexible, which were the two main things we were looking for in a trainer for our puppy. She gave us the necessary tools to practice and keep up with the training at home. They are available even outside of your training time for questions (texts, calls, etc.) so you’re really not doing this alone.

We are ecstatic with Ryders progress. For reference - Ryder is a10 month old, 90 lb German Shepherd puppy. We could not walk him and when he saw other people or dogs, his reaction would be severely adverse. Previous to training with K9 Mania, we were not sure we would ever be able to take Ryder into public situations. Our assigned trainer, Nicole, was incredible. Immediately, we could see a difference in Ryders demeanor. He is now alert, obedient, calm, and a much happier dog. Able to take walks, go to the park, and interact with others. Nicole is an exceptional trainer and we appreciate not only the work she did with us and Ryder, but also her follow-up and sincere care.

I had a great experience with Phillip as our trainer. He really established the basics with our young pup (sit, down/stay, come, place, leave it) helping us build a great foundation to work from. He was also instrumental in teaching our pup the proper way to walk on a leash - after a few sessions with Phillip it was night and day. In addition to the training sessions, he gave us homework to ensure the lessons learned that day were really embedded in our pup. Phillip is a super knowledgeable trainer - he answered a lot questions we had as first time dog owners and taught us as much as he was teaching our puppy. He was very flexible in terms of scheduling our training sessions and would work till our puppy was tired out. I would (and have) highly recommended Phillip for any pet owner - first time or experienced.

In just a few short weeks the transformation was astonishing. He was able to work around our schedules as well as dealing with my kids. Jake was very patient with us and all of our questions. He was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. We cannot wait to continue training our puppy in the future as she grows up. I would recommend K9 Mania to anybody who has a dog. Thank you again Jake.

We are so glad we chose K9 Mania Dog Training. Phillip was fantastic from the start. He was patient with our dog, very knowledgeable about the psychology behind dog behaviors and training, and really catered the program to what we needed and what our dog needed, rather than a preset program. Our dog listens to us much better, is less reactive. Our goal has always been for our dog to be a good family dog and one that could go to work with us, and now thanks to Phillip, we believe with continued work of what he taught us, our dog will be able to do those things. We highly recommend Phillip and K9 Mania if you are looking for a personalized dog training program!

I just finished my 6 week training session with Jamie, who by the way is an amazing dog trainer!!! He is so well knowledgeable and really gives you great ideas on how to train your fur babies. The literature he also shares with you is also very informative. Theo immediately took to Jamie; and by the way Theo who is very stubborn, and makes tasks difficult, by the second class Jamie had him doing commands and most importantly by end of training a more manageable dog.

Hiring K9 dog mania to help train my pup was the best decision I could have made. I rescued a 11 month old working breed with no formal prior training and I’m a new dog owner myself. I struggled with the idea of leaving him with a group where he would stay to be trained. Im glad I didn’t because I learned quickly that it isn’t necessary. Within 5 minutes of the first session, my dog was walking at the heel perfectly (he was an intense puller). The advice and support they give via text throughout the week was perfect. Spot on, helpful, actionable, effective. I have come to learn that I needed more training than my dog did. And to be an effective dog owner, leaving my dog somewhere without me personally learning the necessary skills would lead to disaster down the road.Very happy with the results, I highly recommend!

Our dog is such an important member of our family and we like to take him places with us. It was becoming nearly impossible because he would bark at anyone who spoke to us and during walks he would be pulling us in every direction. Since working with Janine and Nick, Leon now walks besides us and although excited when he sees people, he will wait until we tell him it’s okay to greet them. His barking has decreased significantly and we are looking forward to many more family outings. Janine and Nick took into account what was important to us as the owners when developing a training plan and were always available when we had questions during the week. We highly recommend them for training your dog!

We’ve had our Pitbull Mooch for 5 years. He’s a very loving dog but it was very difficult to get him to behave. He’s very hyperactive and pulls on the leash. Walks were no option to get out his energy. I finally decided to enroll him in a boarding school after hearing about them from a friend at work. It was very pricey but I want the best for Mooch. Chriselda took good care of mooch. He caught a cold and he was treated medically with no additional costs. I received regular updates on his health and training progress. When it was done, Mooch became much more calm and obedient to instruction. He plays fetch and can walk on the leash so much better. I’m very happy with his progress. One piece of advice, training has to continue in the home to maintain what was learned. ALL members of the household have to be aware and participate to guarantee success and prevent regression! The trainers at the facility get through the learning curve, it’s up to the owners to maintain the results.

We adopted Rocco in October last year. He was our second working terrier breed so we felt prepared for the level of exercise and attention he would need. However, we were not prepared for the aggression and resource guarding. In no time at all our handsome addition to the family had our whole house on edge, unsure what new trigger would cause him to snap or start a fight.Thats when we got in contact with Leana at K9 Mania.When she came for the consultation not only was she professional and unfazed by the level of chaos our home had succumbed to, she felt she could help. I would recommend Leana to anyone struggling with issues training their dog.She was very knowledgeable about the latest methods and tools in dog training.She was ready and open to shift her approach when necessary.She was flexible with scheduling, even seeing us twice a week sometimes!Ultimately, its clear that she is passionate about encouraging a happy healthy relationship between dog and owner. Weve gone months without a fight and several weeks with no snapping since starting training with Leana. She has helped us build our dogs confidence and our peace of mind.

I have gone through different dog trainers before, and I was disappointed with the results. When I come across K9 Manias Elliot, I was thinking of giving it another try. He was highly recommended by a friend of mine and I was also checking the reviews. The reviews gave me hope and I was not disappointed by the result this time. I am so happy that I gave it another shot and I have seen how he was training my precious Labrador. All I can say is, K9 Mania changed my precious fur babys life as well as mine. Thank you Elliot!

What a difference! How do I start. I enrolled my dog at a training facility that I went to for 3+ months with no noticeable results. I was frustrated that I decided to try something new. I happened to see this K9 mania ad and researched reviews and was pleased with their reviews. I just have to say I was in awe how well she did with just the first lesson. I couldn’t believe it. My puppy was reactive to everything, pulled when I walked her and she is 50lbs pulling me down the street. I had a few issues but realized my technique was a little wrong and was corrected and she was back to improving. I took her for a walk and she finally walked past a rabbit without reacting, I was in shock. So for those of you wasting money on months of training, I suggest you try K9 mania training you will not be disappointed. Thank you K9 for making my walks with my dog a pleasant one. Highly recommend.
