We began working with Nick when our puppy, Koa, was about six months old, and we were impressed…read morefrom the very first in-home consultation. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and professional dog trainer, Nick brings both expertise and clarity to the process. His approach gave us the confidence to move forward with one of his puppy training packages. The group sessions have been incredibly valuable--providing structure, socialization, and meaningful growth for Koa. We're especially grateful for the one-on-one guidance Nick has given us, helping us confidently reinforce commands and build strong obedience skills at home and on walks. We've seen tremendous improvement, particularly in managing Koa's over-the-top excitement when greeting people and other dogs. Content K9s also offers boarding and training to their clients, so having that option during our recent 2 1/2-week international trip gave us complete peace of mind. Koa was clearly well cared for, and we returned to a happy, well-adjusted pup. Nick and the Content K9s team deliver professional, effective, and thoughtful dog training. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for puppy training, obedience training, or behavioral support.

We started training last year with Lissette with our rescue mix. He wasn't accepting the new puppy…read moreand literally wanted to bite and fight. In just one session with Lissette, Cooper was playing and sleeping with the puppy! Fast forward to recently, he had barking and aggression towards people he didn't know.

He is like a new dog and we owe it to the expertise of Lissette and Bark Busters! Thank You!!!

Alex the owner took the time to explain to us in detail what the program consisted of. We were convinced that this is exactly what Clyde (our dog) needed. It was difficult for us knowing that he would be in the training Program for a month but Alex made sure to keep us well informed at least twice a week with an update and a picture of him. When Clyde returned home, we can tell how different he was from when he left us before the training. We were very pleased with the Clyde's results. Alex is very professional and passionate about what he does and we feel that anyone who acquires his services will be very happy as well. Thanks Alex for your services, we will be calling on you when we get our next dog! Sincerely, Delgado Family

AJ is amazing!!! I highly recommend!!!! AJ is such a…read morewonderful trainer. We found her when we brought a new Aussie puppy home, already having a three year old border collie. There were a few problem behaviors we were able to work on right away. Jumping, sitting, and overall listening. AJ is extremely great with our dogs. They are excited to see her every session, and happy to work hard for her. AJ is not only a great dog trainer but also a teacher to us humans. She helped us learn the tools we needed for our dogs to be successful. After 8 sessions our dogs are doing great with door manners, a long stay, coming when called and more. She has taught us fun games that allow the dogs to use their noses to find scents, while also tiring them out. I recommend AJ to anyone in need of help with dogs who already are great, but have a few quirks to workout. And I highly recommend AJ to anyone with new pups in the house. She has made a huge difference for us, and our dogs as well as everyone's confidence!

**UPDATE** Our training journey with Nala started on…read more6/29/18 and we signed up for the 6 session lesson plan. Today is actually our 7th lesson (and still ongoing). I must stress that AJ is just not about training but more importantly she believes in Nala's well being. AJ created a bond with Nala, yet Nala is aware she is in training. AJ listened to our needs, and investigated our surroundings/situation. AJ prioritizes Nala's delicate insecurities. There are not many Trainers (or businesses) that go above and beyond the need to "sincerely help" and yet is still a professional. ie: AJ has accompanied us on numerous Vet visits; suggested Doggie Daycare, plus accompanied us on Nala 1st visit and ensured Nala's transition into socializing with other dogs. In which was a success! Nala is now at leash training status and people interaction. Stay tuned for further updates... Don't ponder... we still HIGHLY RECOMMEND AJ for your pet training needs!!!!

We couldn't be happier with the results. Both our dogs are large breed. We contacted Nate a couple…read moreyears ago when our youngest, a french mastiff, american bulldog mix, approached adulthood and showed aggression towards other dogs. The dog is a total love bug but considering his size and strength, we couldn't risk any anti social behavior. After a few sessions in our home focusing on basic obedience and leash training, I began taking our dog to Nate's group classes. After a few of those, our dog was comfortably lying down surrounded by 14 strange dogs!! Incredible!!! We recently added a third rescue to the family. The introduction did not go well at all. It was a disaster. We called Nate again. He furthered the training on our first two with crate training and in a short time, he had all three walking together, calm and behaved. Here's the bottom line. Yes, Nate is a fantastic dog trainer but more importantly, he trained us to know how to understand and work with our dogs. It was very easy to let our dogs go untrained since they are such sweethearts with us. Now they are pets that we can take other places and not worry about them around people and other dogs. We know how to handle them. That takes so much stress away. We can walk them together, they are calm and happy. That makes everyone happy. I cannot over recommend Nate. He's a great guy and really knows what he is doing. If you have a dog, call him.

After a short 6 day long board-and-train followed by 6 months of weekly one-on-one sessions with Nate, I can confidently say our sweet girl is rid of her demons! lol. She went from a dog that I was scared to be under the same roof with to the sweetest girl that is off-leash trained, safe around children of all ages (under supervision of course), and eats just like any other dog I've ever had (with better manners actually). I am so grateful for his guidance. It took lots of time, dedication, and sacrifice but I wouldn't trade it for anything. I also feel all around more confident around dogs. Once you learn leash basics properly you can do anything!

5 Stars - Thank You, Stephy!…read more My boyfriend and I were shopping around for a good dog trainer for our pitbull puppy when we came across BarxParx and found Stephy--and we're so glad we did! Stephy is absolutely amazing at what she does. She's incredibly knowledgeable in her field and made the entire experience both fun and educational. Over the course of six weeks, we saw such a positive transformation in our puppy, Moose. The group class was small and intimate, which made it easy for both of us to be involved in the training process. What we really appreciated is that Stephy wasn't just training our puppy she was also teaching us about puppy behavior, communication, and how to be better dog parents. She was so patient with us (and Moose!) every step of the way. Moose genuinely looked forward to going to class every week, which says a lot. Thank you so much, Stephy, for everything. You've helped us lay the foundation for a well-behaved, happy pup, and we couldn't be more grateful!

Our beautiful girl is 1/2 husky, 1/4 german shepherd, 1/4 border collie, and it's absolutely worth the money to get her groomed than attempt to do it ourselves. They do an amazing job and are super fast. $90 is what I've paid both times and that price is VERY REASONABLE compared to other places I have shopped around. The ladies at the front have been nothing but kind and assured me that she would be in good hands. She is a little anxious, so they very generously gave some calming treats for free to try to see if that would help as other treats have been unsuccessful. If you haven't been to K-9 Country, you and your pet are missing out on a great experience!

After searching high and low for a place where I could bring my pups without feeling stressed or worried about their well-being, I finally found K9 Kountry. My dogs go there for daycare and absolutely love it. I never feel stressed leaving them, knowing they are in good hands and enjoying themselves. Although we haven't tried the overnight boarding yet, I can wholeheartedly recommend their daycare services. If you're hesitant, like I was initially, give them a try. You won't be disappointed!
