He comes to our house for a one on one training in our environment for the first few sessions and takes you to the dog park so that your pup gets trained in different environments. Amazing how well behaved our dog is now. Highly recommend Steve.

So we enrolled in the "Puppy Kindergarten" class. Karen uses positive reinforcement and consistency in order to foster a mutual understanding and respect between you and your dog. You can check her website out to read about her methods, available classes, etc. The classes are well structured and organized. Karen is a extremely kind person who truly cares about you and your dog and goes above and beyond to to do whatever she can for you. Thanks to Karen's expertise we now have a very well behaved puppy who knows how to greet people, come when called, sit, down stay, leave it, and much more. Thank you Karen!

Rascal left us 7 weeks ago having well earned the name Super Naughty Rotten Rascal. We struggled with having done multiple trainings and in home behavioral consults, that just left us with an out of control dog, out of control home, chaos and an unfortunate incident with one of our cats. (Hank is alive and well after his own recovery). We were faced with a very hard decision. Many others were telling us to rehome our beloved pup, we were the problem (we acknowledge some of it was us). We were using gates, muzzles, crates, interactive toys, walks, doggy day camp among other things. NOTHING we tried worked. We were at the end of our ropes. We found an advertisment on Facebook for Stonehill Kennels, spoke with Chris and we were sold. After a few weeks of waiting Super Naughty Rotten Rascal was sent to Bootcamp. The first four weeks he did great and we were scheduled to see our baby boy however Super Naughty Rotten Rascal had one more trick up his sleeve. Boy did he test his trainer Cassidy. They worked through him trying to exert his dominance on her and the situation. We waited five weeks to see our baby and he was a new dog. Doing every command beautifully for Cassidy and us. (insert a very ugly mom cry moment). We are so proud of you buddy. Today he has returned as a super fun loving well behaved Rascal!!!! He even got praise in Lowes (some guy) "that's how behaved I want my dog to be". Insert another ugly mommy cry moment! My heart if full having all my fur babies at home. When others told us to rehome him, Sonehill Kennels and Cassidy came through delivering exactly what they said they would. We can't thank you enough. There are just not enough positive things we can say about you all. We are fur-ever grateful!!!!

After having 3 dog companions throughout our lives, we had no idea bringing in a new dog into our home would cause so much havoc. Ruby was sweet however, painfully mouthy, wild, and dominant. I was almost ready to give her back to the rescue group however, my friend sent out a text message to her neighborhood community requesting suggestions on dog training facilities. The one that repeatedly came up as the BEST was K9 One, so I called and spoke to Chris Byrne, the owner and he listened to my concerns and he "guaranteed" his team would be able to train not only Ruby but us as well! Landry Rogers our assigned Professional Trainer is phenomenal. At our first meeting he gave us insight on how dogs think, the importance of administering consistent consequences for bad behavior and rewarding good behavior. He would send us photos and send Ruby's training session videos which gave us comfort knowing how she was progressing. We can not thank him enough for the kindness, patience and professionalism he showed us throughout the 6 week training program. RESULTS: Ruby knows all her commands and is controllable. She is no longer mouthy or wild however will test us to see if we allow her to be dominant. We now have the tools necessary to give our girl the alpha leadership she deserves and respects. With Appreciation & Gratitude to the entire team at K9 One, Larry & Jeanette Krueger

For those who have been challenged with handling a reactive dog , you understand the mental toll it…read moretakes and how isolating and hopeless it can feel . You thought you did everything right by giving your dog so much love and socialization only to now be faced with questions and comments like " why didn't you just train your dog ?" , " you're not the alpha to your dog", " you shouldn't be a dog owner" on a regular basis. I have a 6 year old boxer ( the social , goofy clowns of the dog breeds) . I've worked with dogs in the past as a kennel attendant, and grown up with dogs my entire life and never thought I would be in this situation . I struggled to find a trainer whose techniques showed progress which lead to inconsistency, a lot of frustration and doubt . Eventually taking him places like the vet and groomer caused me such extreme anxiety. When I met Tom , my dog was unapproachable by strangers , including Tom initially. It took a month or so of meeting up , going on walks and practicing techniques at home but I was seeing improvement! Not long after Tom was able to take the leash from me and walk Gus, and we could walk near other people without Gus acting like a total maniac , lunging , barking and snapping. It was like he was a normal (ish) dog . Gus is 6 , so it will be a slow process to break him out of this behavior , but he has improved so much in the last 6 months .. I never thought I would get this far. I still have my work cut out for me but this training has also helped me increase my confidence as a dog owner and learn to trust my dog again. I'm not longer so nervous to take him out on walks because I feel like I'm in control.( Holding back an 80 pound boxer is not an easy task ) . I definitely recommend Tom if you are struggling with a similar situation. It probably has been the best thing I have ever done for Gus!

Highly recommend, they know their business and can handle highly aggressive dogs. Tom is ver…read moreinformative.
