My partner and I recently put our 5-month old dog Koda, through the 3-week basic obedience training. Prior to signing up for the class, David came to our house for a in house puppy training class. Upon meeting our dog and explaining some basic tips for training our new puppy, he suggested the basic obedience overnight training for Koda. After thinking it through we thought it would be a great idea given our busy schedules. David was very understanding and gave us a very generous offer when it came to pricing the basic obedience class for Koda. When signing up for the class, the paperwork was extremely thorough and he literally goes through each and every item stated in the contract so that you are not blindly signing a contract, and so that you feel comfortable with everything that will be done while your dog is in training. My partner and I greatly appreciated David's level of communication skills throughout the entire time of doing business with him. He was extremely responsive to any questions and concerns and always encourages you to reach out to him if anything arises. Not only does he send update videos and photos upon requests, emails were also sent prior to graduation in which were also thorough in explaining the process going forward as far as continuing to train your dog after basic obedience. He even offers extended certificates for your dog such as AKC Good Citizen Certificates (if your dog qualifies), which we were thrilled to get for Koda as well. On graduation day, it was awesome to see Koda exceed our expectations and respond to David's training so well. Since being home, we can definitely see the progress and difference that the basic obedience training made. She is listening so much better and through taking 30 mins out of our day to go over David's training commands and signal she is improving every day. Not only is she more obedient and well-behaved, her temperament also has changed for the better due to the training. We have noticed that she is much more calm and doesn't cry as much as she used to due to her separation anxiety issues. Overall, we thank David and his wife for the exceptional service they did in training our babygirl. We know that she is not the easiest dog to train because of her level of energy, but they did an amazing job. I would definitely recommend their services and could not have been a more satisfied customer. Thanks again Loyal K-9! read more

Loyal K-9 - Koda is so much more well-behaved following basic obedience training. - Pet Training Near Me

There is a reason why everyone takes their time to write their reviews for Dave-it's because he is that good! Why we needed Dave- Both my sister and I were given a 4 year old border collie a couple months ago from China that grew up her entire life in a kennel. Kaia has never had any training before, much less been out of the kennel or have an owner so everything was new to her. Needles to say, she had no confidence whatsoever, scared and was unsure about a lot of things, and a 20 minute walk would take up to 40 minutes. Kaia would also get real anxious and would think she was still in a kennel ... you could tell by the way she would pant real hard, circle round and round like there was an invisible fence around her even though she was out in the open. What happens- When we called up Dave he was very pleasant and patiently answered our million billion questions. He also offered us to come by his place to check it out if we wanted to which I thought was real nice of him. After our call, we scheduled for him to came by our place for an in home evaluation with our dog. He came by and spent some time with our dog, giving us and showing us tips, answered all our million billion questions AGAIN, and gave us the option of doing the two or three week course along with his fair price quote. We decided to sign up Kaia for three weeks of training. When you sign up for training, you drop your dog off at Dave's, pick your dog up at the end of either two/three weeks and Dave will go through all that was taught to your dog with you on pick up day. Dave will also come by your house for a follow up within the following two weeks of pick up day. This, in my opinion is to ensure that you(not your dog) are not messing up :) Pick up day- Kaia was a completely different dog when we went to pick her up. She knew all her commands that was taught by Dave, had a great boost in confidence, was so much more focused, and boy did I have a hard time learning what was taught. Kaia knew exactly what she was doing and probably would have rolled her eyes a hundred times at me if she could cause I kept messing up. Dave was always very patient with us, never complained once even though I myself was starting to get frustrated with myself! We had many good laughs and I personally had a good time learning all the fun stuff Dave taught Kaia. It wasn't just about giving some structure to our dog for me. Dave showed us that it was also about bonding with your dog without all that overbearing discipline/doting. Follow up- I had a great experience with the follow up just as much as pick up day. Dave drove all the way to our place which is a good 45 minutes away and didn't complain. He took his time going through everything with my sister and I, making sure we were doing everything right and never once did we feel rushed. He also gave us useful tips for training and was very encouraging. Overall, our experience with Dave was all very positive and he delivered everything on his end. Walks are now much more fun for both me and our dog. Kaia still circles round and round but it's now more of a quick happy circle and only does it when she is excited or happy! My advice is to listen to Dave because he has many years of experience and knows what he is doing. Everything will work great between you and your dog if you follow through. read more

Loyal K-9 - Kaia's pick up day! Thank you Dave for everything! - Pet Training Near Me

So I took my dog Moose to Loyal K -9 to have him trained because what I was doing and watching on youtube wasn't working. When I went back to pick him up I didn't think that was Moose, I had a brand new dog. I paid for the 3 week basic obedience class and David added some advance training for free. I didn't even ask him to do that, he did it on his own. I can say I got more than what i paid for. Moose is off leash and comes when calls and obeys my commands and he seems happy to do so. Happier dog, happier life and a happier me. Thanks Dave for all you did and you're amazing skill. I'll have to bring moose back for a visit. read more

David at Loyal K-9 is so good with dogs and people, he is has a lot of patience. All the things he has shown me and my K-9 are working GREAT. Highly recommend him to all. Thanks again David :) read more

David was so amazing. He was open and honest with us about our Australian / German Shepard. We spoke to him this evening about our dog's behavior. He gave us great tips and we were very happy with his suggestions. read more

David is patient and consistent with both dogs and humans. He get results and doesn't let you cheat. If you want actual dog and people training Loyal K9 is your best bet. Flexible schedule and he will meet you anywhere. Best prices for an individualized dog training program. He is helping to make our our 4 dog home a happy and peaceful one. I will be a long time client. read more

I adopted a pitbull mix about a month ago. I had her a week and immediately knew she needed training. She pulled terribly on a leash and barked at every dog and person we would walk by. I wanted the best for her and I didn't want people to fear my dog Ukki. I also feared she was dog aggressive. I did some online researched and found loyal k-9. All the reviews were convincing but what sold me even more was when it called David. He was so intuitive and really listened to my concerns. That being said we set up a in home assessment. David came and got to witness all of my problems an concerns with Ukki right away. We went for a walk and she was terrible and embarrassing (pulling me around, taking ME for a walk). David took the reigns on the way home and only had to correct her twice before she was heeling for him. I was pretty amazed because he did this all in front of a house with a snarling, mean guard pitbull distracting her. We talked about our concerns more back at the house and Dsvid explained the training. I was SOLD and he took her that day. She completed the 3 week training program with David and I got her back about 5 days ago. The training of me, the human went well. It was a lot and a little overwhelming but she listened very well to me and the commands. When I took her home I was warned she may test her limits and try to go back to her old ways and believe me she tried! Her training with me is going well. I still have some work to do on myself as being Alpha, but I'm getting there. She still occasional barks at other dogs but David is great with answering any questions if I call or text. I got her back five days ago and I think I have talked to David everyday with a new question, he isn't ever annoyed and is always so helpful. Thank you to loyal k-9 for training Ukki and myself. We would be a mess without you!! read more

Well...... not sure about that one star review but im a happy customer . I have a pound puppy, half pit who already tore up one couch. Dave had her for a 3 week course and it has been a huge improvement. She actually listens, she still need work but that will come with me listening to dave and everything he taught us and practicing with our pup. Im impressed and my very hard to impress boyfriend actually admitted hes happy with the training. Money well spent to save this dog, and not to soon with a 5 year old and one on the way. read more

David is an amazing trainer and an all around friendly and professional guy. We had a great experience having him train Roxy, our one year old pit mix. Roxy went for the 3 week boot camp training at David's place. She finished in less than 3 weeks, and knows all her basic commands both verbal and non-verbal! It was probably harder training me to use them correctly then training Roxy! Though David is very patient and came back for a two week at home follow up to help me fine tune any issues we still have. He also gave us advice for areas to practice on and pointers for more advanced training we could work on at home by ourselves. He also had great advice on dog care in general, such as nutrition, chewing, etc. We enjoy Roxy so much more now that she is well behaved and follows instructions. I would highly recommend Loyal K-9!! read more

If you are looking for dog training, Loyal K9 is an excellent choice and highly recommended. After an initial in home assessment, we were confident that sending our dog to Loyal K9 for the 21-day boot camp would be very beneficial. On drop-off day, we all suffered from separation anxiety. David was very responsive to all of our inquires of how Molly was adapting. He always provided great details of her progress, and made Molly comfortable during the adjustment period. (According to Molly, he even invited her in to sit on the couch, although that wasn't David's story) Molly completed the training in about 12 days. David provided great information about what to expect on graduation day. We spent 2 hours trying to learn Molly's new found knowledge. David was very patient with all our mistakes. He provided clear and concise instruction and did not rush us. David came a week later for his follow-up appointment and spent extra time with us as we worked on the 30 FT leash training a little more. Molly's progress continues to improve everyday as we work with her. Loyal K9 facility is immaculate and was designed with the dogs' best interest in mind. The shelters were well planned out, clean, and comfortable. There are weather stations throughout the grounds to ensure the dogs are not over heated, as well as, a misting system to maintain a comfortable temperature. Overall this was a terrific experience, you will not be disappointed! read more

If you are looking for a reliable and trustworthy dog trainer I would highly recommend Loyal K9. David trained our Cane Corso "PeeWee" and I very pleased. He was also very patient with my husband and I during our training lessons. Thank your David taking care of our dog and trained him to be the best dog he can be. read more

We took our dog to David at Loyal K9. Within the first couple of days, we could tell a big difference in our dogs behavior. The "off" command is a wonderful thing. We are thoroughly impressed with the level of training we received. David is courteous and efficient. I would recommend Loyal K9 to anyone who wants great training by someone who genuinely knows and cares about dogs. read more

We just got our two German Shepherds back from the three week training... and we are so amazed!! David did such an awesome job with Thor and Bella! They have learned commands in both English and German... and both came back to us so much more well behaved than before! David has been very patient with our dogs and have taken very good care of them while they were away from us. He was also very easy to communicate with and kept us up-to-date with how our dogs were doing while they were at bootcamp... even sent us funny pictures that let us know that our dogs were also having fun. David is also very knowledgeable about our dogs... answered all our questions and offered some great advice! He was also very patient with my husband and I when we were learning the commands when we reunited with our dogs. Overall, awesome experience! I'm so glad we invested with Loyal K-9 to train our two hard-headed German Shepherds. VERY SATISFIED!! And we are now proud parents of two well-trained, well-behaved German shepherds! THANK YOU, LOYAL K-9!!! read more

Loyal K-9 - Thor and Bella :) - Pet Training Near Me

I was recently having some trouble with my wonderfully disobedient dog Kona, and was growing extremely frustrated her. I really didn't know what to do. That is when I heard about Loyal K-9. David was awesome. I am so thankful that I entrusted Kona with him. The results are unbelievable. Not only am I happier, she is too! I have never had a trained dog before; I always just accepted the way they were. Wow was that a mistake. Having a trained dog is so much better, and David is the best at training them. Do yourself a favor and call David - both you and your dog will be thankful that you did. read more

I have 2 pitbull/mastiffs that are amazing family dogs but they did not like other dogs. After calling a few places and either getting outrageous quotes or being told that that was behavior they couldn't change or that they had that breed in them and that wouldn't be a behavior they would be able to fix....Dave was game for a challenge. He killed it! read more

Absolutely recommend David and Loyal K-9! My young Am. Staff Terrier was so well trained that I now thoroughly enjoy walking her and taking her places. David treats all the animals like they are his own. His place is exceptionally clean. He is wonderful! Love what he has done with Arielle. Thanks so much Dave! read more

My husband found Loyal K9 after searching Yelp. We had called another training company and they didn't seem to want to help us because I mentioned that our pit bull mix shelter rescue may be aggressive with other dogs. Dave came to visit us before we signed the contract and he told us up front that dog aggression wasn't his speciality and he couldn't promise anything. I appreciated his honesty. We signed that day for the three week training. Our lil girl came back so well behaved! He sent us videos while she was there and no signs of aggression with any of the other dogs! I couldn't believe it!! We even ended up getting her back a week early because she did so well. The hardest part other than her being away from her, is training ourselves! She does so much better on walks and listens when we give commands. Dave's dedication to the training is amazing. read more

I was at my breaking point with my neighbors complete disdain for my very loving dog. I called David almost in tears trying to find someone to show my dog was well behaved and not a monster just due to his larger size. (My neighbors are small dog lovers) David came to my home and evaluated him and gave me a great training session to help me better handle him in public. He put me at ease completely, his compassion towards both myself and my dog helped us through. I cannot recommend him enough. He was also honest and didn't try to coerce me into long drawn out training sessions that my dog simply didn't need and would not have responded to positively. (He is my senior citizen pup) I must say I appreciated his honesty the most, it speaks the world of a person who can take advantage financially of a situation and doesn't. read more

We just picked up our 4 year old German Shepherd. She had a lot of anxiety issues, shyness, and stubbornness. She was at the training for 3 weeks and I was thoroughly impressed by the demonstration I observed while out of Fiona's sight. David worked well with both of us when I started MY training, but my girl's stubbornness quickly returned, especially during one portion of the commands. I do not blame David or Loyal K-9 at all - we just have to work with her on a consistent basis (she's kind of a big diva and does what she wants lol). He gave me good tips to work her through this one specific command (down) and we will get through it just fine, I'm sure. I would highly recommend them to anyone - I can tell already that my girl's shyness and anxiety have gotten better. We just have to continue to push through her stubbornness :) read more

We brought our dogs here while we were out of the country for two weeks. Not only did we return to incredibly well behaved and obedient animals, but David was sure to keep in contact with us throughout their training with pictures, videos and written updates. He is also incredibly responsive to questions we are having post bootcamp, just don't tell him the dogs are back to sleeping in the bed with us (). We will definitely be using him to further their training in the future and we would HIGHLY recommend. read more

Dave is a friendly person and takes good care of our dog. Our stubborn dog learned quickly and he now listens to both my husband and I after he completed his boot camp. After my dog Buddy completed his boot camp Dave has been flexible in dog sitting and Dave is very dependable and i can always trust that my dog is taken good care of. Love that I found his business and hope others can give him the opportunity to train your dog. read more

We own a 10 month old Vizsla named Lemon. If you know the breed, then you know they are extremely energetic and have a hard time focusing. No matter how many dog training YouTube videos we watched and time spent with her, we could not get her to listen and focus. I just so happened to be talking to a coworker who had sent his dog to Loyal K-9. He had nothing but praise about David and his company and said I should give him a call. David is super easy to talk to and very knowledgeable. We ultimately signed Lemon up for the 3 week course and wow, what a difference! Even our friends and family members noticed immediately that she was way more relaxed and didn't jump up on people when first greeted. My wife and I feel like we have control over our dog now and it has increased our bond and relationship with her. Walking Lemon has become an enjoyment as opposed to a chore and we feel more confident taking her to public places. We would highly recommend Loyal K-9 to anyone who wants quality dog training that utilizes positive reinforcement. We felt at ease leaving Lemon at David's house/training facility. It is very clean and well kept. On the business side of things, David is honest and trustworthy. He fulfilled every task that he said he would and we truly feel that not a cent was wasted. Thank you David! read more

My review is long overdue but here it is. I dropped my super crazy Belgian Malinois with David for 3 weeks and I feel like I picked up a completely different dog. David was extremely knowledgable and accommodating and friendly. Very easy to get along with. But most importantly my boy is now well behaved and listens to authority. Definitely recommend! read more

David is the greatest and patient dog trainer we know. He saved us from taking our Belgium Malatoy to the animal shelter. Our dog was chewing everything and was out of control. But with David's training and additional tips, we kept our dog and he now is very calm and loving. Thank you David you saved is from a hard decision and kept our Family together read more

Dave, thank you so much for helping out little furry friend! My boyfriend and I just finished out 4 week in home training with Dave and it was fantastic. Dumpling, our french bulldog, is 5 months old and it was great having Dave come to our house because when we first started training her, she didn't have all her shots so she wasn't allowed around other dogs. Plus, it helped since the boyfriend and I would have had separation anxiety. However, I would have trusted Dave with her for the 2-week training in a heartbeat. Coming from training police K9, he makes it look so easy and gave us all the tools to make our pup better behaved. Dave showed up to our house every weekend promptly and ready to train Dumpling. She still needs practice but that is something the boyfriend and I need to work on with her. When we go to Hawaii in September, we will definitely be dropping her off for doggy boarding at his home. Plus, he provides brush up training while she's there. Thanks Dave and Dumpling will miss you! read more

Had a great experience with David Pellerin of Loyal K9. We took our puppy there who was totally out if control and driving us crazy. David kept her for three weeks and she was so much improved. Took a lot of stress out of our lives and changed our relationship with our dog Harper for the better. I heartily recommend Loyal K9 for human training as well as dog training. Thank you David! read more

Our Belgian Malinois puppy, Harley, had the nickname "Crackhead" until we sent her to David and Loyal K-9 for obedience training. I called it boot camp. She returned less than three weeks later listening, obeying, heeling, sitting and staying on command. She is far, far less hyperactive and much less clingy. Previously, she couldn't be left alone for a minute (truly). We knew from the minute we saw her that she'd become a fantastic dog, but now I believe it. Thank you!!! read more

My Husband and I were going on vacation and we were in need of someone to watch our little one Fritz. We found Loyal K9 and we are so happy we did. They were able to train fritz how not to pull while walking which we have been working on for over a year. They were also so kind to send us photos of him while we were on vacation. Our minds were at ease and we were so happy to know he was being well taken care of. When we came to pick Fritz up he was happy to see us but also sad to say goodbye to all of the friends he met at Loyal K-9. We would highly recommend Loyal K-9 to all in need of training and or boarding. read more

Dave helped us with our 3 dogs, 1 pit bull, 1 korean jindo and 1 boxer/bully mix. After 8 weeks of private training at our home there was such a considerable improvement in the way my wife and I could handle our dogs, and an amazing improvement in how our dogs acted. We constantly get compliments on how well behaved our dogs are. I would recommend Loyal K-9 to any one that want's to learn how to handle their dogs. read more

Just picked up my 8 month old german shepherd Polo a couple days ago from the 3-week basic obedience training and he literally came back waaay more obedient than before. He no longer jumps on you or pulls on his leash during walks and he used to have a habit of play biting A LOT and chewing on everything in the house but when we brought him back he rarely did that if not at all. I noticed that he doesn't have separation anxiety anymore, as David had pointed out during the consultation. Polo also actually listens when we tell him "No" now so A+. David is super knowledgable and honest about everything (he gave great advice during the consultation alo; you can definitely tell he knows what he's doing, plus he was super accommodating and patient when teaching me the training during pickup. What I thought was great at pickup though was that you're standing inside watching the demonstration (so your dog can't see you) and then David gives the ok and you come out and like surprise your dog..so cute. Anyway had a great experience, thank you David for training Polo so well! read more

I did the puppy classes at PetSmart which are completely worthless, so I was really discouraged. A friend recommended Loyal K-9. After just one in home lesson with David, I'm already seeing some great changes in my stubborn little dog. His approach is so different than the pet store methods, and so much more effective. I work full time, so I don't have the time needed to fully train her how I want. I will be enrolling her in the two week cadet course where he'll keep her on site and train her in all the basics - such a relief with my busy schedule! I would highly recommend Loyal K-9 to anyone who wants to get the most out of the relationship with their dog. read more

First off let me say that I don't do Yelp reviews. I refer to Yelp all of the time, but simply didn't believe in committing to writing my opinion for the world to see. BUT after having so many people ask me where my dog, Kade, was trained and referring him to just about anyone complaining of training issues, I thought it was time to write my first review. David did an awesome job with Kade. Kade is a very large and somewhat goofy dog that had serious "Alpha Dog" syndrome- he jumped, chewed everything up (including all my trees), and didn't listen when I tried to correct him. I looked around and found David to have a nice, clean, and safe space for the dogs he trained. He is fair priced and very qualified. Kade was in the 3 week boot camp class and my family and I were shocked at the turn around. No more jumping, leash trained, no chewing, listens when we say "No". Still a little goofy but that's just his personality. David was also very kind and went above and beyond to break his contract and extend his aftercare time line to me due to a death in my family which most places would not do. If you're looking for a good dog trainer, take a look at him. He has 5 stars for a reason. read more

When our family goes out of town and could not take our beloved Golden Retriever Rumple, there is only one most trusted dog trainer we go to for his boarding - Loyal K9! David trained Rumple twice, basic and advanced classes, which gives us absolute confidence in his abilities. His teaching methods really work and we know he will take great care of Rumple. David and Cathy are both caring towards their own German Shepherd Maverick so they understand your needs as fellow dog owners. Rumple enjoys his stay with them very much that we don't feel so guilty leaving him behind. He got a lot of exercise and fun with Maverick. Thank you, David and Cathy for always being reliable! read more

As humiliating as it is to say this...I am a "Certified Dog Trainer". I became one to enhance the lives of my first two dogs. Smart move...but got very rusty during the years of theirs lives. So, after them living out theirs lives in our home, we could never be dog free. Rescued a GSD mix, and then eventually rescued schnauzer mix. Realized just how rusty I was. And...I had gone soft. I had to call in an expert! David came to our home and gave us lessons there in our backyard and with his encouragement...our dogs are much better citizens...which is great. The last issue we had was the schnauzer girl was absolutely TERRIFIED of the doggy door. And she is stubborn. She wouldn't come through it...not for anything...not food, affection. We tried the tough love and she stayed outside for three days until I broke and let her in. David to the rescue....long story short...that girl PLOWS through that doggy door in and out all day long. You would never know she had an issue. Thanks David!! Oh...and most importantly...David told us if he saw us hurt our dogs out of frustration or anger, he would terminate our client contract, he isn't down with that at all!!! I LOVE THAT!! He totally gets you never need to hit them. You had to "cowgirl up" as he kept reminding me. And...I do love to support our local businesses and vets! Thanks! read more

I have a 6 year old American Pitbull that's great at home but a completely different dog outside of the house. He becomes anxious, excited, and has become aggressive towards other dogs. I wasn't sure if he would be too old to rehabilitate. But you can teach an old[er] dog new tricks! David came to the rescue. Immediately upon our first in-home consultation, he showed me how to stop my dog's excitement level from reaching a red zone and our first walk down the street went better than I had expected. I signed up for the 2 week book camp that included the 6ft leash training. When it came time to pick up the pup, I was floored at how well behaved my dog was. He was respectful and calm, even with the other dogs going off within and around the area. David is very professional and is truly an excellent trainer. I personally believe in his philosophy about dog training and all the tools he has taught me have become invaluable. I will have to continue to work with my dog, but I am so happy that David was able to steer us in the right direction towards building a stronger relationship with my dog and myself. Thank you David! read more

If you are looking for the best dog trainer look no further. David is the best of the best. We started with an in home evaluation, where David assessed our puppy and took us through what he would be teaching him. We decided to send our wild 5 month old chocolate lab on the 3 week training course with David. We trusted him immediately, and knew this is who we needed to get control with our puppy. While he was away training at Loyal k-9, we wanted to check in on our dog and he always responded in a timely manner. Even sent us pictures, which made us so happy! When it came time to pick up our dog, we could not believe how amazing our dog was on the leash!! & he just gets better by the day, as we continue to work with him at home! David made sure to work with us until we were very comfortable with all the comands he taught our dog. He even came to our house a few weeks after the training course to go over the commands at home and answer any questions we had. We look forward to sending our dog again for more advanced training. we can not thank David enough! read more

Loyal K-9 sure won me over. Please allow me to say that I was skeptical about sending my dog to the 3 week boot camp to someone I didn't know. She's a puppy and I knew that I would miss her and I also wondered if the results would be what we needed them to be since our dog is smart but just a little stubborn some times and we are limited on the time that we can put into training her so we needed help getting obedience planted into her head and then we could keep up the maintenance after that. Wow, did Loyal K-9 perform everything we needed and a whole lot more. The trainer, David Pellerin, is top notch. He knew I was having problems being separated from my puppy and he kept me updated regularly on her progress and even sent me pictures and occasionally video. He also posted some of the same items on his web page as well as on Facebook. That helped me immensely to start with. I could see through her progress (which was amazingly fast by the way) that she was happy and healthy and learning very well from a caring trainer. By the time we picked her up we were able to learn very quickly that she was doing so well in basic obedience that we went straight to test for the Canine Good Citizen test for AKC and she passed with flying colors. Now that we have had her back home, she is behaving so much better than she ever did before and the maintenance training is a real treat now. She seems to like it as much as my husband and I do. Thank you David Pellerin and Loyal K-9! You guys are awesome and I highly recommend you to everyone who, like me, needs help with training that our busy schedules just don't allow for us to do right now. Now that our girl knows her training we have time to go through daily review and have lots more time for fun and playing after that. Thanks again. Michelle, AKA Ember's mom read more

We took our dog, Tanner to see Dave because we wanted him to have a refresher on basic behavior and obedience. Tanner is our 4 year old stubborn dachshund and had been giving us trouble by not listening and exhibiting door crashing behaviors etc. tanner spent 2 weeks in training and when we brought him home it was refreshing. Tanner has since been a much better listener and he does exceptionally better in particular with heeling and he has more respect when it comes to waiting for permission to pass through a doorway instead of crashing. We have been very pleased with the results and with Dave's professionalism and skill as a trainer as well as his staff. Thank you! read more

I had a really great experience with Loyal K-9. Dave does a good job of explaining what all is involved with the training and he wasn't pushy about getting me to sign up. He gave me the option to think about it, but after seeing him in action during the consultation I felt very comfortable with him helping resolve the issues I was having with my dog, Maddox. I even asked to come by and see the facility at the end of our consultation, on extremely short notice and he was very accommodating. The kennels were clean - much better than where I had boarded my dog previously. Maddox was at Loyal K-9 for two weeks and when I got him back I was impressed with the outcome. Dave also did a follow-up consultation with me to make sure I was on the right track which I appreciated and he was available for questions when I wanted to make sure I was on the right path. I've also boarded with Loyal K-9 and they take good care of Maddox. I would recommend Loyal K-9 for training/boarding for sure. read more
