Chris Park k9 Dog Training

I couldn't have expected any better of an experience working with Chris and his crew. At drop off when I was already starting to miss my girl, Sasha, Chris spent the extra time to talk to me and ease my worries :) The communication and the photos that were sent to me throughout training were awesome. The videos especially were something that I looked forward to. I got to see Sasha playing with others dogs, training or working with London or Chris. No matter which.... always a good time. Great people, great philosophy, great facility, great results, great choice! Hands down!! It's such a good feeling when you go back to see your trainer and your dog gets so excited that she can't wait to get out of the car. Training with Chris and crew was definitely the right decision.

I was extremely hesitant to start dog training because I do not agree with e-collar training. As first-time dog parents who had just adopted a 4.5-year-old Goldendoodle, we truly did not know what to expect. My biggest fear was that training would change who our dog was or make him fearful, and that was something I was not willing to compromise on. Before committing, I spent 30 to 40 minutes on the phone with Chris. He was patient, transparent, and thorough in answering all of my questions. While I appreciated his approach, I will admit that I was still unsure. My husband felt strongly about moving forward, and when we met Chris in person, he again took the time to walk us through the process in detail and address my concerns. Throughout the training, Chris regularly shared videos of our dog’s progress along with thoughtful commentary, which helped ease my anxiety and build trust in the process. London, who worked directly with our dog, was absolutely fantastic and clearly cared deeply about both the dogs and the outcomes. When we picked our dog up after training, the results were remarkable. He was truly a better version of himself. Not only did we notice the positive changes, but friends and family did as well. He was not fearful, shut down, or different in personality. He was confident, happy, and still very much himself. Most importantly, our bond improved and we genuinely enjoy each other more now. After our dog graduated, Chris continued to support us by meeting once a week for three weeks to walk us through the training and ensure we felt confident continuing at home. By the end of the process, I told Chris how apprehensive I had been at the start and how genuinely glad I was that we trusted him and his team. I would 100 percent recommend Chris and his team. Even if you are skeptical or nervous like I was, they are professional, transparent, and truly care about the dogs and their families.

I did a lot of research before deciding on what would be the perfect fit for my female American Akita; I have to say, working with Chris and London was the best fit for Luna and I. As Luna started growing up, she started testing her "abilities" more and more. I was having a very hard time with controlling her barking, basic commands (she would do as she wanted in the classic Akita way), and her reactiveness. Now, she was/is not aggressive in the slightest but she would try to pull me to whatever she wanted to go see. She would sometimes listen for a treat but that was not sustainable. I wanted more for Luna and I. After having the initial meeting with Chris, I knew sending Luna to him for boarding and training would be our best option. It was really hard to send my girl away for two-ish weeks but London and Chris would send me updates, pictures, and videos of my girl to assure me everything was going very well. In the process of our follow up visits/training, I tore my ACL and ended up having knee surgery which put a pause on everything for around 6-7 months. I had to have help from others who did not know Luna's training. Throughout this time, I could tell Luna started to test my boundaries more again as I could not keep up with the level of training we had until I could start walking again. Luckily, Chris was very patient and understood the circumstances and was very willing to continue our training. After just the first follow up meeting after all of this time, Chris refreshed not only Luna's memory on what to do but also mine. She has now graduated his program!! Chris' willingness and responsiveness to help us again through this time is forever appreciated!

Chris and London are outstanding! Their dedication to understanding and training not only these dogs but their owners is amazing. Our 200lb Saint Bernard, Moose went through the board and train program and we have seen such great improvement in his behavior and obedience. Moose would get nervous and protective of his family around new people, but thanks to Chris and his team we can have people over our house again. Moose has been such a good boy! Forever thankful to have found Chris and London
