Lynn has the most valued and rare gifts and skills I could ever ask for to handle my dog behavior…read morequestions. I have needed her help a couple of times (since her insightful guidance when she helped to train my standard poodle through his separation anxiety!) and she has been as gracious and enthused in her support and guidance of all dogs that we have had, and as we entertain adopting again. Lynn especially eases any strain or guilt when it comes to what you will do and won't do, can do and can't do, and how important it is to be realistic about your lifestyle and what training is required to make your life peaceful and balanced! K9 Foundation demonstrates a humane approach to both animals and humans 100% of the time! Thank you, Lynn! You are my NorthStar for caring for our dogs... and consequently, our marriage!! ;) LOL because a bad dog life can compromise balance throughout, and Lynn and Kevin model both reasonable goals and realistic limits with excellence and understanding!

Took a level 1 Dog training class from Lynn after taking a generic dog training class from a chain…read morecompany a few weeks prior. You can not even compare the two classes. It was a better price and a major difference in outcomes. Lynn was absolutely amazing and very personable. She spent time using each dog in the class for training examples and never once made me feel bad or discouraged about having a wild child of a dog. There were pups/dogs of all ages in the class too. She was always helpful and offered her knowledge about training and different circumstances that arise at home. I am looking forward to the next class and am using her 1:1 in my home to help me and pup keep learning!!

Michelle has been a huge help to us with training our Great Dane puppy. When we first got our…read morepuppy, we were having problems with housebreaking. Michelle does home visits so she came to our house and was able to walk us through housebreaking in our home and made sure the environment was set up appropriately for our puppy. She helped us start bell training with our puppy. She did a follow up Skype session to ensure the housebreaking was going well and to offer additional suggestions since our puppy decided she didn't want to use the bell after all the training. (Of note, our puppy now uses the bell so she was just being stubborn before!). Additionally, we took our puppy to Michelle's Puppy Kindergarten class which has been great for us. This is our first dog and we had no idea how to train her. Michelle demonstrates the training and then walks around the room and works with each of the owners and their puppies to ensure that everyone understands. She is always available by email if you have questions. I would definitely recommend Michelle if you need a trainer for your dog!

In July, we adopted a 12-week-old puppy who had been caught in a trap. He was exceptionally…read morefearful and seemed out of control. WE NEEDED TRAINING! So, we signed up for 10 private lessons with Abby, and he worked miracles. Abby first met with us to understand our dog and our needs. Then she crafted a program suited for us. This puppy is now a joy, and not this wild child who was terrorizing our lives. Thank you, Abby!!!!

I just finished a series of 6 private session in my home for my two dogs Trip and Sophie. The main…read morefocus was on Trip. His anxiety, barking and jumping on people when they came over was making us miserable. Thanks to Abby's advice I was able to see what I was doing wrong and correct it. Her training tips were straightforward and based on praise and reward and not on shock and pain. My dogs are now walking loose lead with little correction and I feel certain with more practice that loose lead will be second nature. The more I work with my dogs using her advice, the more improvement I'll see. I look forward to working with Abby again soon to get my Boxer mix Sophie ready to be a Therapy Dog. Thanks again Abby! This is your calling!

She took our 4 month-old "spirited" Golden Retriever and was able to teach us how to bring him under control, change his behavior and help him mature. There was no punishments...only endless positive motivation with treats and high-pitched voices encouraging our pup to behave correctly, respond appropriately and stop being "annoying". Toni has a positive mannerism that teaches the owners how to motivate and encourage their dogs. The dogs respond well to her and subsequently to the owners. We were truly amazed at the remarkable changes in our Golden (and ourselves) after 4 lessons. Many claim to know how dogs think. Toni Lipscomb truly does understand dogs and knows how to "talk" to them where they respond in a very positive manner.

She got back to basics, tailored her approach to his breed and genetic instincts and layered in play with a balanced training approach with positive reinforcement and correction techniques.

Cheryl is a phenomenal resource and the depth and breadth of information and expertise that she…read moreprovides is second to none. She is masterful in her delivery of training but al so is able to leverage her network to provide the most holistic version of complete animal training and care.
