Love these K9 Turbo enrichment events! My senior gal gets to explore at her own pace. Thank you for the opportunity to support your rescue partners while having some fun in the corn maze. š¾š¾

My fearful dog has had 2 in home sessions with Kyle and is finally slowly coming out of her shell! His good advice has helped relieve my stress. Adopting a fearful rescue dog takes a lot of time and patience. Thank u

The only place we trust to board our dogs! Have used them a few times for boarding and have a boarding trip planned this summer as well. It's always hard leaving our fur babies but knowing they are in good hands makes it a little easier.

I have taken two classes with K9 Turbo and loved both! I took agility with my husky and we both had so much fun learning from KJ. I can't wait till there is another agility class for her to take. The facility is brand new, clean and so fun for every dog!

I started my first ever professional training class in 2018 with K9 Turbo that was basic manners with Rachel . Fast forward to 2022 and Iāve worked with 6 other trainers from the company and weāve grown so much together. They are family whoāve supported us through very specific behavior struggles to fun sports and tricks to helping us get confident at the vet.Theyāve helped us understand my dogs individual needs , read his body language and help him cope with his fears. Itās not just technique, itās life skills for me and my dog and itās been transformative.Some of the things I most appreciate about K9t is their commitment to accessible community education and outreach and their ability to really cater to the individualās needs. Their ability to be flexible and deep understanding of canine behavior allow them to adjust to every dogās unique needs. Iāve worked with other good trainers but felt like they took a 1 size fits all approach and when my boy couldnāt succeed , they didnāt know how to help . I see much less frustration and overstimulation now.I also love that they make sure their events, facility set up and class structure is supportive and accessible to reactive dogs because theyāre good dogs too who deserve to have fun, learn and grow their confidence.I would argue that k9 turbo is the best certified training company in the state.

We recently got a new puppy and we are already on our third series of training classes with her. We have had Emily and Sarah as our trainers (along with one night with KJ subbing in) and they have all been amazing! They are super helpful and knowledgeable and they celebrate our pupās successes right along with us! I recommend K9 Turbo Training to everyone that I adopt puppies to through my rescue because itās so worth it!!

We have been fortunate enough to work with several trainers from K9 Turbo Training, and couldnāt be happier! Our dogs have some reactivity, (among other issues), and they are living their absolute best lives because of working with these amazing trainers. They are professional, the top in their field, knowledgeable and friendly. We do not live locally, so we utilize the virtual training, which has been great for reactive dogs, and somewhat introverted owners. We will forever be grateful to K9 Turbo Training, and continue to utilize their services for years, and loving pets to come.

Took my dogs Ozzy and Piper to 2 personal training sessions with Kyle. Ozzy who I thought was very hyperactive and had some bad habits, Kyle taught us that he just needed to be stimulated mentally. Ozzy has been so much better since we have been practicing positive reinforcement and giving him mentally stimulating activites. He does not bark for attention anymore and has done phenomenal at the dog park. Kyle gave us a lot of good tips and tricks to training our dogs.

I just asked questions. The price is high but I have to find a trainer that doesn't use dangerous collars. Since they don't, they're at the top of my list. I have a German Shepherd and he has never played with another dog..

We took the puppy manners class with Sue recently. We trained with Sue at Petco with our first dog. We would follow Sue wherever she goes! She is so patient with both dogs and owners and goes that extra mile to help every dog. She goes above and beyond and is the BEST!!!!

We absolutely love K9 Turbo Training, especially āBoarding at the Farmā! Our dog, Bugs has such a good time there, plenty of toys, snuggles, and cuddles on the couch.Their facilities are very special because they outfit the building like a home with couches, pillows, even classical music for the dogs to listen to.Not to mention that itās a 17 acre fenced farm where the dogs have opportunity to get outside in an enclosed space to enjoy fresh air off leash.More than the accommodations, we LOVE the trainer, Francisco! Heās so great with our dog and works with him on commands and little training techniques our dog needs. Itās obvious that he really cares about our dog and I never worry when we board him there.10/10 stars! I highly recommend them!

Tons of classes, in person and remote , that will for your training needs. They are a positive reinforcement trainer. Have taken group reactivity classes and individual training. I have also rented out their indoor enrichment space for myself and my pup. It's a great training resource

AMAZING! Frankly the best trainers we've ever had, particularly Abby Knue. Our dog is reactive - it's been a long journey, and after a couple of previous trainers that did mediocre jobs, we were feeling very discouraged. Then we found K9 Turbo. Not only did they have a reactive specific program, but they are force free and take the time to UNDERSTAND your dog and how to work with them on their triggers. I was blown away by how they were able to set up their training center around triggering situations for my dog (e.g. a fake vet office, a small apartment space, etc.) in a safe and controlled way so that my dog was always set up for success. This was EXACTLY what we needed. They helped me understand my dog better, but also gave me the opportunity to communicate with him better: we have a much much better relationship because of K9 Turbo and our dog has gotten SO much better at reacting to stressful situations. WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND K9 TURBO!

I went to K9 Turbo after hearing so many good things about them and struggling to fix some things with our nervous pup, Eleven. We have trained with Laura throughout two 6 week class sessions. The first, Teenage Manners, helped us get our pup back on track to what we were looking for as far as obedience. She listened well and enjoyed being in class. I noticed a confidence increase in Eleven. But just to solidify some of her newfound independence and courage, we took her to Confident Canines. Eleven just graduated today and, personally, I'm much more confident myself going home and adapting the things I've learned in these two classes and applying them in a force free way to teaching Eleven the things we would like her to do. Laura has been amazing. She is patient and nurturing, she will never push your pup beyond it's limit, and she will go out of the way to help you figure out what works best for your dog. I look forward to returning to a 3rd class with Laura to allow Eleven to have some fun in Game On!

My husband and I found K9 turbo through the recommendation of our veterinarian. We signed up for in home training for our 2 year old German Shepherd who was struggling with anxiety and fear of strangers. Laura was a dream to work with. She really took her time, made sure we were all comfortable at all times, explained things so well to us from a scientific standpoint and a down to earth way. Harti has come such a long way with his training and we absolutely adore Laura and all her hard work and dedication. We ended our training in home on such a positive note that we couldnāt stay away for long! We are now signed up for group classes and will continue with Harti in classes once a year at least. I would highly recommend k9 turbo to anyone.

Love this place! After my wife did extensive searching and researching we found them! Our Trainor KJ is great, listened to everything we had to say, watched how we interacted with our doggo and how well my wife and I are with her, how well she listens and good we are with her! I'm so thankful for KJ and the training we have been doing! Wouldn't go anywhere else!

I recommend to anyone with any dog needs/assistance. Helped my senior dog learn new tricks to help assist in making his last few years more enjoyable, helped manage anxiety as he aged, and provided top notch resources whenever other services were needed

We have loved our experiencing working with K9 Turbo Training. We've been working with Jesse to help with our dog Scooter's separation anxiety and it has been going great. The virtual format is convenient and we are still able to get live feedback even if we aren't in the same room. We are already seeing great progress and I love that our "homework" is always tailored to Scooter's progress and individual needs and not a set program. When we tried training him ourselves, we never felt like we were making progress but now, we do!

We have been working Abby to help out relatively new rescue dog, Piggy and it has been such an incredible experience to be able to understand ways to bond with our dog to help set her up for success. Abby has taught us techniques to help Piggy understand that people can actually be nice, and her mat training techniques also help our otherwise nervous dog calm down a little. Thank you Abby and K9TT for your help - you are awesome!

K9 Turbo is amazing, we have done a puppy manners class, private training, and the puppy social drop ins, every trainer we've met has been extremely helpful and patient with our head strong puppy. I cannot recommend this training center enough, since we started there we have seen dramatic changes in our pups behavior and we have learned to become better at teaching our pup new things.

Our 2 year old GSD/Husky loves her puppy trainer Sue Carls! Recently, we attended a Loose Leash workshop with Sue, and a Four on the Floor workshop with Emily Osborne. Each was 1 hour long. The information was tremendously helpful. We love K9 Turbo Training and will definitely return for more enrichment training.

My puppy and I are just starting out with K9 turbo, but so far, our experience is great! Very responsive, our online video session was wonderful, and he starts online virtual manners next week. I am so glad to still have training options and hope to be able to do in person classes next year! But, I very much appreciate K9 turbo keeping everyone safe.

I cannot recommend K9TT enough. The trainers are excellent and genuinely care about each dog they teach. They are able to adapt to individual skill levels and empower dog owners. I especially love how non-judgmental, understanding and compassionate they are. And that's just the trainers! The staff behind the scenes are wonderful too-- so responsive to emails and always friendly. We love K9TT and will continue to support and utilize them whenever we can.

Weāve brought our puppy Gimli to K9 Turbo for two different 6week long classes and also competed an online workshop. All of the trainers weāve worked with have been so professional, informative and wonderful! Gimli loves going to class and adores the instructors. K9 Turbo also has great customer service and care as we had some issues with scheduling on our part for one of the classes. They were very receptive and quick to help us find a solution for scheduling, going above and beyond when something unexpected came up. Weāve told so many other pet owners about our positive experience with K9 turbo and are regularly complimented on how well behaved Gimli is despite only being 8 months old. Highly recommend them for all of your dog training needs if youāre looking for positive reinforcement and cooperative care training!

Zoey and her crew of trainers are amazing! Watching them do pack walks is incredible, especially knowing that just days before some of those dogs were reactive!! Would give them 10 stars if I could! Highly recommend!

We have taken many group classes with K9 Turbo Training since getting our puppy two years ago. All of the trainers have been extremely knowledgeable and have helped us work through some of our pups not so desirable quirks. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to build a stronger bond with their dog. Positive reinforcement training is the way to go!

My rescue lab mix began showing escalating reactivity and aggression towards strangers, and needless to say I was terrified that I might have Cujo on my hands. I reached out and scheduled video consults with a few different dog training services, and K9 Turbo Training was 1,000 times better than any of the others. The trainer I talked to (Rachel M.) was spectacular. She was extremely knowledgeable, kind, and a very good teacher. In the first 90 minute consult I had with her she was able to explain what was triggering my dog, how to address it, and give me a personalized plan to work on. It's only been 3 days and I'm already making some noticeable progress with my dog. I will absolutely be sticking with K9 Turbo Training, thank you so much for your help!

I canāt say enough good about K9 Turbo Training. We had an issue with our girls getting along. Without Kaitlyn and K9 I donāt know where we would be today. If we reached out there was a response. The trainer was fantastic. Someone was always available to help. Even as time goes on the team is always there to support. You will not go wrong choosing the trainers and staff at K9. Best decision we ever made. If there were more stars to be given I would absolutely do so.
