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.

She wouldn't walk when I put the leash on her and would just freeze in place. I was so nervous & stressed out on how I would train her when she wouldn't even take one step. On Day 1, Nick was able to get her so much more confident and walking at a nice, steady pace. I've done both private & group lessons now and cannot recommend this company enough! They turned my shy little Chai into a proud, confident German Shepherd like she was always meant to be!

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!!!!

You are definitely my new store. I will be telling all my friends to come here.

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!

We took our boy Yogy for boarding over the holiday. He was not able to stay 24 hrs because he was…read morejust too stressed but this was not due to Barx Parx. They reached out to me within a couple of hrs after drop off and explained what was happening. They were willing to still work w/him and keep him overnight but I chose to have my sister pick him up instead. They were really caring and their number one priority was Yogy's well being. The fact that I can watch him through the cameras is a huge plus but I wouldn't have known how bad his stress level was if it wasn't for the team's attentiveness. I really appreciate the team for attempting to work with my baby. I would 100% recommend Barx Parx!

I had really high expectations for this place because a friend had recommended them and apparently…read morethey were voted one of the top daycares. But after the third visit, my dog came home injured and passed out for the entire night, which I don't think is very healthy. I got mixed responses on why he might have come home with a limp that lasted about 4 days in the end. It made me think that they weren't watching the dogs properly and there's very little down time for these dogs. Since I can't trust them to watch my dog and make sure that he doesn't get hurt, we've moved on to another place. By the way I've been to several other daycares in town and this never happened so having it happen on only day three of coming here is pretty concerning. Plus it should probably be a red flag that any place charges extra for you to watch what's happening on a webcam so you know what's happening at this place. That would have been very helpful for me to understand what happened to have to keep my dog at home for 5 days to recover.

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!
