Sound Familiar?
Lunging, barking, pulling toward every dog, person, or squirrel. You've stopped walking certain routes. You dread leaving the house.
You spent thousands on "positive only" methods, YouTube tips, or trainers who ghosted after 3 sessions. Nothing stuck.
The aggression is escalating. Guests can't come over. You're scared of what happens next. a bite, a lawsuit, or worse.

"My dog bit someone. I was told to consider euthanasia. The K9 Academy team took the time to understand what was going on. 8 weeks later, my dog is safe, calm, and part of the family again."

Just got back from a walk. She saw two dogs and didn't react to either one. That's it. That's the email. Thank you.

Reactivity · Private Lessons. Session 4
Miles came to us from Mexico as the most anxious dog in his litter. Leash reactive to dogs AND humans, aggressive with strangers in our home. We followed your advice word for word. All of it. He met my mother-in-law at the front door last weekend. He sat. He sniffed her hand. He walked away and laid down on his bed.

Aggression · Board & Train
You know how bad Pip was with traffic noise, basically unwalkable for 8 months. Stuck with the e-collar protocol even when it felt weird and we weren't sure. Anesh kept telling us to trust it. He's off leash in our neighbourhood now. Beside us while cars go by.

Fear / Noise Sensitivity · Private Lessons
I am a 5 foot woman with a GSD/cane corso mix who used to lunge at everything. I stopped walking her. You told us you'd fix her leash walking on day 1 and I thought that was insane. It was not insane. I take her on public walks now. By myself. With confidence.

Reactivity. GSD/Cane Corso mix · Board & Train
Just wanted to let you know we have been able to successfully transition Chai to the e-collar on her own. She has been doing really well. The separation anxiety is night and day from where we started. We can actually leave the house now.

Separation Anxiety · Private Lessons
After a bite incident, I was told to consider euthanasia. The K9 Academy team took the time to understand what was going on. 8 weeks later, my dog is safe, calm, and part of the family again. I don't know what I would have done without them.

"Three trainers told us our GSD was a lost cause. K9 Academy took him on without hesitation. After 4 weeks of Board & Train, we have a completely different dog. Best decision we ever made."
