Before I dropped my mini Aussie Samson at his first off leash training with Matt at Allegiant…read moreCanine he was a crazy little pup with A LOT of energy and a nipping problem. I tried to discipline him the best way I knew how but it still wasn't sticking. I didn't have the proper time or experience to reaalllly sit down and do the thing with him and that's what he needed. He had a few manners when he wasn't barking at me to play or jumping from couch to couch, or using my friends' backs as personal climbing posts and licking them to death (let's not even get into the Aussie drive to nip/herd people and things which was the real big problem) Samson was a GOOD baby BUT* My fur pal that was returned to me is now an obedient, more relaxed little man! It hasn't even been 24 hours and I am truly blown away! We still have more training to do together (me more than him) but I am so pleasantly surprised to see how much he has already changed. Thank you Allegiant Canine for not only shaping him into the dog he was always capable of being, but for loving him like he was your own. I know that when he is in Matt's care he's in dog heaven, having the time of his dog life playing with other pups and being out in the country AND getting the HUMAN love and attention he needs. Matt handles each dog in their own special way, spending quality time with each and every one of them I never worried about him-not even for a second. If you're unsure about training or need some questions answered Allegiant Canine will not only give you the info you need, but will happily give a free consultation to meet you and your pup. I highly recommend this man and what he does- he's a dog whisperer for sure ! We love you Matt! Thank you for helping Samson and I have a better life together. I'm looking forward to the years to come with my fluffy angel! Love, Maris & Sam

Grace has been a godsend for us and our dog. We adopted a rescue that has severe resource guarding…read moreissues and had not been socialized with people nor dogs. He's a unique dog, and for a while we weren't sure we would ever find someone who could effectively and safely handle him, but Grace was able to not only speak his language - but also safely integrate him into walks with other dogs and help muzzle train him. She quickly became his favorite person and was one of the only people he trusted. Grace went beyond the walks and basic training and would sometimes ask if she could take him overnight to get him used to being around different dogs (hers) and people. He always loves these sleepover and has learned to better read other dogs and communicate as a result. Our boy has come a long way, and we owe so much of that to Grace and Lucky Dog!

We had to find a kennel in a rush because of an unexpected situation. We called all the kennels we…read moreknew of but they were full, so we went looking at the "unknowns". This turned out to be the perfect place for our dog. Jeff and Grace keep great control over the animals, and keep the numbers way down. Our dog was unsure of herself for the first day or so, but quickly joined the pack because I believe she felt very safe at this place. Great big fenced areas to play in, and best of all communal sleeping on furniture! She felt right at home. Highly recommend this place. You can see her airborne flying with the pack in the second photo!

I cannot say enough about the K9 Experts!!! I have a 60 pound German Shepherd that is a very…read morefriendly, sweet dog but she started developing some behavioral issues. Specifically, pulling on walks to the point that my neck and shoulders hurt, and barking/lunging at dogs while walking. I'd done training with other people/organizations but was not consistent with it, and therefore her behavior regressed and actually got worse. I'd also read various dog training books, but nothing worked. I found GlobalK9 and the K9 Experts online and could tell right off that they had a ton of experience with German shepherds and Belgian malinois and figured they could help. I got a call from Matt Burnett and he was very interested in my goals for my dog and got me a consultation the following weekend. After two private classes, they got me plugged with the intermediate group class and I was so impressed with how much Nyx improved each week!! Not only did they teach my dog the commands, but they also taught me how to communicate with my dog and convey my expectations to her. She's a more happy and balanced dog now, and continually improves as the days and weeks go on! It's clear that The K9 Experts love dogs and love what they do! I tell every dog parent I meet about them and can't recommend them enough!!!

From the owner: You can train your new family companion anywhere. So, what makes us stand apart?…read more Customized Training -We have learned through years of training that everyone's needs, wants, finances and time are variables that will determine how we can best help you and your pet. We offer free consultations and evaluations at our facility where we learn more about your lifestyle to best benefit you. We will discuss different training programs and tailor fit a program for you. Functional Training Training is only functional when a dog can perform the behaviors in any environment, with any distraction and with speed and reliability. We at The K9 Experts give you the training and tools to be able to achieve this with your four legged friend. Communication Dogs do not speak the English language but understand words through creating behaviors by repetition and reinforcement. We are going to help you and your dog understand each other better through different forms of communication and by creating behaviors you would like your dog to be able to perform, all while building a better relationship between dog and owner. Balanced Training Every dog learns differently and is motivated by different rewards. We believe in balanced training, where dogs are shown success in performing behaviors. This stage is known as shaping, where we create the behaviors and get rid of unwanted manners such as barking, chewing, digging, counter surfing, etc. When the behaviors manifest, we then use tools, timing, and

We wanted just a short trim, just a touch up. We asked for a specific guard size, and described how he just needed his coat evened out. The gentlemen decided to tell us what we would prefer and his recommendation. Though we didn't ask for it. We politely thanked him for his input, then insisted we wanted to keep his coat longer. As well our golden was 3 1/2 weeks out of neutered surgery, his incision was far enough closed that our vet said we could take him to be groomed and bathed. However, we were keeping the soft cone on as it was keeping him from agitating the area. We asked it stay on, and the gentlemen then lectured us how he doesn't muzzle dogs and he thinks cones are malicious. you're a dog groomer that I'm paying, you're not my vet not licensed as a vet and I personally don't care how you choose to take care of your animals. It's not your place to lecture us on how we care for our animal! When we picked our pup up, he was shaven. Even had bald patches on his belly where the cut was terribly uneven. The worst part of it all. His whiskers were shaven down. (Golden retrievers whiskers should never be cut. They still haven't grown back!) My dog was scared, he had been kept in a crate in the back. To top it all off, I had to ask for the soft cone back. As they never had it on him while he was there. it was kept on the counter- unmarked. I had to describe it so the teenager at checkout could go find it and grab it for us. They lost 2 dog customers that visit. Our pup will never go back, as well my in-laws down the street have agreed they are not taking their cane corso/ Great Dane back. Ownership or management must have changed, it use to be such a nice place. Our dog is our family, it's my son. I don't need to be lectured on how to take care of him. That's between our vet and our family. If I choose a haircut, that doesn't mean chose your own instead. Lastly, if I tell you how best to care for my animal, the last thing you do is chose your own path. Irresponsible, careless, rude, unprofessional. You all can kiss my ass. If you love your animal as we do, don't take them there. My reviews are all honest, and I never leave bad feedback. This was truly terrible. I had to speak up.

Melissa has helped train all of my dogs and is unlike anyone else I've ever seen for dog training…read more Melissa is crazy talented and extremely knowledgeable. She has not only transformed bad behaviors in my dogs but also taught me how to better communicate and work as a team with my dogs. Dog training is a lot of training the owner as well and Melissa is extremely easy to work with, takes the time to make sure you understand everything she is teaching and uses a variety of methods to train your dog to be the best that they can be! I recommend Melissa to everyone. She even helped out of town family members tremendously over FaceTime training to improve leash/walking skills! We love Melissa and you will too!

Melissa is so down to earth and professional. I am a first time dog owner- kinda insane that I got such a stubborn and smart dog (beagles) but Melissa taught me SO much. For those that know how difficult the puppy stage is- I would have never survived it without her. She was available in between training sessions to help if Eleanor started a new bad habit or started a strange behavior. Anytime I had any questions or concerns- Melissa was always available with advice, links to products that saved my mental health. She is a phenomenal trainer, human being and sooo knowledgeable and experienced! Highly recommend!!!!!!

I bought a personal training package from Instinct and the trainer came to my home to train my dog and me. It was such a good decision. Both May and I really liked working with the trainer Lauren S. Her approach and tone were awesome. I knew from the first appointment with her that it was going to be great. I'd been trying to figure out how to get May to sit for weeks. Lauren got her sitting in a session. All in all I think we had 9 sessions with Lauren. In that time we learned a lot and have been applying it. My relationship with my dog is so much better because of Instinct. The thing I will caution people against is having unrealistic expectations of your dog and the trainer. If you go in with the desire to make your dog a unquestioningly obedient robot then you will be disappointed. Just focus on the over all quality and happiness of your dog's life

We were even sent an hour long questionnaire about our dog's history/health/behavior/etc. prior to training. Y'all...they care so much! We have a 1 year old rescue pup who's dog reactive, and we've been pretty much unable to take him on walks or near other dogs at all. Jenna helped us overcome all of this and we could not be more grateful. She coached us on how to slowly warm him up to lots of different scenarios- we even had a playdate with another dog today with no issues! His reactivity will be something we'll continue to work on for months, but I can't tell you how relieved we are to have gained some confidence with it. Jenna really helped put things into perspective and helped us understand how to read our dog and take things at his pace. You really can't rush progress like this, and I love that Instinct doesn't promise "quick, fast, easy results" because those are not effective or even possible. We would absolutely do this again if given the chance, booking with Instinct was a game changer.
