What our customers are saying…

I cannot recommend Kranky K9 Dog Training enough! I came to them for help with my rescue dog Pepper to help with reactivity and resource guarding. They gave us the tools to help Pepper succeed and get the most out of life. She has truly improved so much over our 8 week courses and they have set Pepper up for a happy and fulfilling life. Jules, Bo, and the rest of the staff are extremely knowledgeable around all dog breeds and behavior types. They have expert knowledge with helping reactive dogs, and most importantly, treat your dogs with love and respect!! We are so lucky to have found Kranky K9 and will definitely use them again in the future!

Kranky K9 is by far the best dog training facility. The cost is very reasonable for the amount of time they put into you and your dog. What you get out of the training is priceless. Long story short, my reactive, high prey driven husky is now able to be off leash and is my ‘velcro dog’. Bo is an amazing and intelligent dog trainer who actually cares and puts the time in and goes the extra mile for your dog’s needs. If your dog needs any type of training, I highly recommend it!

My baby Lucy had her last training session this morning! She has come such a long way in just 12 weeks. We have only had her just under a year, and the strives and accomplishment she has made is amazing! I cannot thank Bo and Kranky K9 Dog Training enough for helping Lucy build confidence and skills needed to be such a good girl!! Both training and daycare had made her such a good and well behaved dog!

We rescued an ACD mix (Bentley) and had everything working against us. We had no experience with this breed or high-drive dogs in general. But this one in particular had major aggression issues. My dad, who officially adopted our rescue, is older and mildly handicapped making it a little harder to be on his toes with fast paced exercises. Bo went to every length he could to explore all training options that would work for our unique situation. We couldn’t be happier with all we’ve learned and the progress made. Casey at the front was always a great help and very responsive. 10/10 would recommend!

I'm so happy to add another glowing review. Yesterday we picked up our dog from her first stay at Kranky K9 (a three week board-and-train program). She came home confident, relaxed, and playful. This has not been the case with any of her prior boarding experiences. It is very clear that the staff and trainers at Kranky K9 treated her as an individual with a unique personality, and that's exactly what we were hoping to find for her. We haven't completed the training component of the package yet, but so far it's going great. She's loving the circuit training we were given to practice with her, and all the instructions have been clear and informative. These are people who love dogs and are super experienced and skilled at working with them. Yay!

**ATTENTION**.... If you are searching for an incredible dog trainer, outstanding “human” trainer, and amazing business owner search NO MORE! Seriously, Kranky K9 is where you and your dog want and need to be! Due to a previous negative experience with a dog trainer, I had several questions, concerns, and was hesitant to invest this amount of money once again. Bo exhibited great patience and professionalism when addressing my concerns. Daisy and I recently graduated and had the pleasure to get to know Bre at our first social. I was astonished when they played the training videos and utterly speechless when they brought Daisy into the training room to show me everything she learned. Kranky K9 personally trains the owner once the dog has been trained and provides written instructions on how to continue training. She now is such a joy to work with and loves the attention and confidence she gains during our practice sessions. My friends are amazed at her progress! Bo and his entire team surpassed my expectations! Bo’s knowledge and experience enabled him to combine my expectations, the personality of my rescues, my financial ability, as well as, assess the level of training I needed, to best place them in one of his programs. Lexi, my two year old shepherd mix is patiently waiting for her turn to learn from Bo, Bre, and Joel, along with all the excellent staff! We absolutely love Kranky K9 and are so very blessed to have them in our lives. We look forward to the weekly structured socials and training sessions to reinforce training so we may continue to have well behaved, happy, and confident pups! THANK YOU Kranky K9, we are furever grateful!
