She is extremely high energy and struggled with leash/dog reactivity, making walks stressful and kept us from taking her basically anywhere public. We did the 2 Week Board and Train program. After training, walks are calm, controlled and actually enjoyable now. We can take her to Downtown Woodstock and other public spots without anxiety -- it's been a TOTAL game changer for our family. Everyone at OTCK9 is professional, communicative and made sure we understood how to maintain everything at home. We love that they offer group classes for life on Saturdays to continue reinforcing the training! We also take crazy Luna to Doggy Daycare and she loves it! Cannot say enough good things about the staff and OTCK9 - Highly recommend!!!

More recently, they've gone above and beyond to support me through a very complex and emotional situation with my dogs. They've made house visits, spent countless hours on the phone with me, and even accompanied me to the vet to help discuss medication options. Who does that? OTCK9 does. They are so much more than a training facility--you and your dogs become family. They are always there when you need them, and I truly mean always. Their passion for what they do shines through in the level of care and dedication they show. I cannot recommend them enough. They will love and care for your dog just as much as you do.

We took our puppy to Atlanta Dog Trainer for the group obedience beginner training classes…read more There were 5 weeks of training classes (4 with the dog, the first with just the handlers). The primary instruction was getting your dog's attention, the commands - sit, down, off, leave it, drop it and loose leash walking. Overall I was pleased with the overall instruction and experience. They did a good job of making sure the dogs didn't invade another dog's space. Homework was sent out each week to work on in sessions with the dog and this helped prepare for the next week's session. Would recommend.

We signed up for the two week board and train as a last effort with minimal expectation. All I can say is WOW!!! Tracy has been exceptional from start to finish and the follow up after he was home was icing on the cake! She followed up daily to give us a report with photos and videos and continued to check in for weeks! We have the sweetest dog and our family could not be happier with our decision to put our pup into doggie school here!! The grounds are sprawling and beautiful, the staff is friendly, and the value far exceeded my expectations. We paid $995 per week, so about 2K total. I looked at some other programs which were about 2,800 with kinda crappy looking properties and very pushy sales people. We are forever grateful to ADT and Tracy! Thank you for our "new" dog!

He came out a different dog! Walking on the leash is a joy, he auto sits when I stop walking, walks next to me, sits, lays down, and comes to hand signals.

Before we picked him up they reviewed the training with us so we can easily use it at home, provided a memory stick of the training so we can refresh ourselves with the training. Many thanks to Georgia K9. I would use them again for training.

(German Shepard, Cavalier, and Berniedoodle.). My dogs get excited when we pull up which always makes it a little easier to leave them. Grooming onsite is also a perk. My Berniedoodle went through the entire training program (2 sessions, including off leash) and is one of the most well mannered and obedient dogs I've ever had. My Cavalier is a lazy sack of potatoes! She just loves everyone, so we only did basic training and that's all she needed. It's great that you can do what you feel is best for you and your lifestyle without any pressure.

We loved the in home training. We wanted to be hands on every week with our boy Brock. The tools they gave us have helped tremendously. They also saw we needed some extra help because our boy is high energy and had some behavior issues so they gave that to us. Not only did we work in our home but also took trips to parks and Lowe's to work on behavior. We recently joined in our first pack walk, which is included upon graduation. We were so proud of our "Brock". Several months ago we wouldn't have been able to do this. We still train everyday to keep up his lessons. A very special thank you to Morgan who was our one on one trainer every week. She was so knowledgeable and fantastic, as were Alyssa, Olivia and Kaylee who have also helped. I highly recommend training with Alans K9 Academy if you want great results. We will be referring them to everyone. Brocks Family

I completed the Basic Course, Professional Course and Advanced Course. Without the world-class training that Joan and Sean provided me, I would not be where I am at today. Both on-line studying/examinations along with book reports and more importantly the hands on training in the class room undoubtedly played a key role in my successful dog training business today. Not only was the personal educational aspect of training beneficial but also the hands on training with my personal canine companion (requirement of course to have your own canine and pass certification(s)). Sophie (my Border Collie) has played an essential role as my demo dog for all of my group and private lessons. She has continued on to become a registered therapy dog. As for the training I received from Jo Thor's, I've gone on to become a therapy dog tester/observer, Canine Good Citizen tester for AKC. If you are looking for a state accredited vocational academy with a nationally known director, senior instructor and founder along with the best instructor (Sean - whom is also a graduate and owns his own dog training business) around?
