Questions & answers
From Google
What people have asked about this business.
Do you do guard dog and attack training. And what are your fees
No we do not. The genetics of the dog along with the time and finances it requires to have a stable working dog is not conducive for the general public and becomes too much of a liability.

We love AlertK9! We’ve been going here since 2022/2023. We did a consultation with Ryan and discussed our plans for our boy Loki. We took all his advice and it’s been smooth sailing since! We’ve done puppy training, e-collar training, daycare and boarding. We religiously board Loki here, we honestly don’t trust anyone else but them. Loki is always excited to come here and he comes home happy but exhausted from all the fun. Highly recommend, I promise they’re worth every single penny!!

They did a great job with my two golden retrievers. I can actually walk them now. My dogs love the occasional day boarding which has been really convenient at times, too.

The crew there is amazing. They are always willing to help and answer any questions yiu may have(and I have millions of them) They don't discriminate against breeds. I've seen small dogs to large dogs all playing together. They keep a calm and quiet environment which is helpful if you have anxious dogs. My dog is a velcro dog and this is the only place she will let me leave her, she runs right in without hesitation. She knows her daycare days. They treat every dog like their own and know all their names and quirks. I can go on and on about how great they are. I highly recommend them.

I cannot say enough great things about Alert K-9. I’ve been bringing my boy Wrigley there since February 2026 and the transformation has been incredible.
Wrigley is a Basenji pit mix about 3 or 4 years old. He came to me as a foster with a ton of energy and some personality challenges. During one of our first meetings he literally jumped up on the owners desk and no one saw it coming. Honestly I was not sure if he could get the help he needed to be able to adopt him.
I drop him off once a week for training, work with him at home and his progress has been fantastic. Fast forward to today, June 2026, and I can confidently walk him, knowing I have control. More importantly, he can actually be around my families dogs. I know this would not have been possible without the help we have received from the folks at Alert K-9.
The team is not only skilled and knowledgeable, but also genuinely great people. Everyone there is a pleasure to work with, and you can see they truly care about the dogs!!
If you are looking for a place you can trust with your dog, and get real results, I highly recommend Alert K-9. They have made a huge difference with Wrigley and I am very happy to say that I will be moving forward with adopting him.
