I highly recommend Balanced K9 Academy - they are masters at training both the dog and the owner. I could not be more pleased!

If you're looking for an amazing trainer that is passionate about dogs Rick at Impactful Canine…read moreTraining is that person. His love for dogs is obvious through his interactions and training techniques. Jasper and I have attended many training classes in the past so we had our basics down, as long as treats were present Jasper performed. Without treats we struggled. Rick has taught me how to phase out treats and make training more enjoyable. He has also worked with Jasper to help him get over his fear of being restrained so we can make our vet visits less stressful. Recently I was introduced to scent work and started scent work classes with Rick which Jasper truly enjoys. I cannot recommend Rick enough as a trainer. He has helped me tremendously.

I would definitely adopt from them again.

Just want to add additional comments on how great Amanda was with us…read more - Very good communication, she told us what she is working on and how our dog receives the training with videos - The training itself is amazing, still can not believe in just 3 weeks our dog is completely different, in a good way. - Owner training, I would say a good if not the main part of the dog ownership is in the owner hands, and Amanda explained very well how WE should read and understand our dog. It will change your perspective 180 degrees - And the last after the training itself she came to see how the dog is doing after we received him came back. Honestly I did not expect it, and was surprised in a good way, that she made time for us. Overall HIGHLY recommend, if I would need another training for other dog, 100% will come back to Amanda. Thank you again Amanda! You are the best!

I recently moved to the Huntsville area and felt overwhelmed looking for a trainer in the area who…read morei felt I could trust when it came to my new working line German Shepherd puppy. After reading reviews for pretty much every dog trainer in Huntsville, I reached out to Bite Ranch K9 and Alan got back to me asap. After we spoke at length on the phone, he invited me to come out to the Sunday dog sport club and if I liked what I saw, I was more than welcome to send my puppy into their 2 week Board and Train program. It's been a little over 2 weeks since our initial conversation and I went back today to pick up my puppy. Although you really can't expect a whole lot from a 13 week old puppy with the attention span of a fly, I was incredibly impressed with what Alan had accomplished with my puppy in such a short span of time. As a new handler of a dog destined to be a working k9 in some capacity, it's difficult to put your trust and money into a trainer you don't really know. I don't even know what I expected, to be honest...but I received more than I did think I would. I drove home today with a puppy who has far more focus, engagement, drive, and sass than she did 2 weeks ago. I feel like Alan set my puppy and I on the right path, and I so look forward to what she and I will accomplish now that a foundation has been set for us. Everyone I've met at Bite Ranch k9 has been so friendly, knowledgeable, welcoming, professional and so understanding. I highly recommend both Alan and Nick as dog trainers. Whether you have a dog you want to become the perfect family pet or you have a high drive beast of a canine you're looking to get into sports with, they're your trainers. Every dog has different needs when it comes to training and they truly understand that and will do everything they can to honor what your dog as an individual needs.

My friends and family have been appalled by the amount of money we paid to have our dog "trained" please don't fall for The promises of this business. I feel completely taken advantage of.

I have a baby coming in 3 weeks and I'm out $3,500 and have a dog that has not changed at all.
