These guys are just the best. We did the board and train with our 6 year old dog who had been getting nippy and struggling with all of the original obedience training that we did with him as a puppy.

These guys are just the best. We did the board and train with our 6 year old dog who had been getting nippy and struggling with all of the original obedience training that we did with him as a puppy. He came back to us a new boy - he's 10/10 with recall. He's learned to be calm in his place. It's made life better with out dog. As a part of the board and train program, we get a few lessons of our on on maintaining the training and being healthy dog owners, which is obv so important. As a note, we also did a separate boarding, with no training. Our dog lived in the house with the other dogs and was treated like part of the family. We got daily updates and he was obviously loving life.

A Very Good K9 sets the standard for dog training. The trainers give real time, focus, and care to both you and your dog. You never feel rushed. Every question gets a clear answer. Every session feels intentional. They pay close attention to your dog’s behavior, personality, and needs. Training plans feel customized, not scripted. You see progress quickly because they explain the why behind every technique and show you how to reinforce it at home. What stands out most is generosity with time and attention. They stay engaged before, during, and after sessions. They check in. They follow up. They want long term success, not quick fixes. If you want trainers who respect your dog, support you as an owner, and deliver real results, this is the place. I would recommend A Very Good K9 to anyone serious about building a well trained, confident dog.

Austin and Haley are incredible. I had the chance to see firsthand how they care for the dogs in their adventure board and train program while they were in Alberta. I was so impressed, the amount of effort, attention, and compassion they put into every dog in their care truly shows. They took the dogs on so many training outings and adventures all over, giving each one an amazing experience. They are extremely knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely passionate about what they do. A Very Good K9 is absolutely top tier and I recommend them to anyone looking for quality training.

Harley had a long stay with Haley and Austin! We have a 1 year old corso that was super crazy and was stubborn around unfamiliar faces. Haley and Austin took Harley in for 4 weeks and worked on a bunch of commands that helped her with off leash training, worked on her nervousness around people, and even took her out to stores and restaurants! We couldn’t have chose better trainers for our girl!! Definitely recommend!!
