I recently moved to the Huntsville area and felt overwhelmed looking for a trainer in the area who i 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. read more
