We used Lauren and Sarah for a 4 week board and train for our reactive beagle. He came back a much better dog. He’s so much more relaxed and listens the first time you tell him do something. Walking him now is a breeze and she provided us the tools and knowledge to continue our success going forward. We look forward to being able to provide a more fulfilling life for him. He’s already been on a few adventures in the first week hes been home that we never would have been able to do prior. He was in great care there and will be excited to go back for future boarding with them!

Country Life K9 was absolutely amazing with our 4 year old, stubborn Bulldog! Their training has been a game changer and is money well spent. Our dog was very nervous, took some time to warm up, and has medical issues that needed some extra TLC and patience. I knew he was in good hands with Lauren and Sarah!

I took my Belgian Malinois to Lauren and Sarah for their 4wk behavior modification program and i could not be more impressed both with the results and these two ladies! They are both very knowledgeable and communicated in such a way that i understood what I was doing wrong and how to continue helping him make better choices. My boy and I both got training! He is doing amazing! Still not a fan of the cats but no longer trying to eat them lol. I highly recommend Country Life K9 to anyone and everyone!!

I highly recommend Lauren. We’ve done a few video chats together and I truly have so much respect for her always wanting to learn and bounce ideas back and forth. She deeply cares for the dogs and their owners, is highly skilled at what she does and wants to see you succeed! I’d send my own dogs there in a heartbeat!

Look no further, you have found your dog trainer! You will not regret working with Lauren and Sarah. Our 4-year old small munsterlander, Meeka, just completed the 4-week behavior modification course to address her high anxiety and leash reactivity. Meeka is a hunting dog with a high prey drive. She thrives with off-leash commands when bird hunting with my husband, but leash walking has always been a struggle. During walks she would stalk small animals and was extremely leash reactive towards other dogs, bicycles, scooters, and even golf carts. It was difficult to find a trainer that understood our needs from both the hunting and everyday dog training perspective…until we met with Lauren and Sarah. They understood the balance we were looking for. Sarah had experienced similar challenges to what we were facing with her own hunting dog, a wiredhaired pointer. It helped immensely to have a trainer who understood the needs of a hunting dog. Highlights of working with Country Life K9 Training: -Detailed pre-training prep. We felt prepared and at ease with dropping Meeka off at Lauren’s home on the first day. -Videos and photos of training throughout the week. We loved seeing Meeka and the other pups progress! - Lauren is one of the best communicators and teachers I’ve ever met. She is clearly a professional, skilled trainer due to years of experience working with animals, but also knows how to break down each command in a way that’s easy to understand for owners. The results have been nothing short of transformational for our family. Meeka’s anxiety level has dropped dramatically. She still has her prey drive and has not lost her hunting training, but everyday walks are much more enjoyable for all of us! This training was so worth the investment. We are grateful to Lauren and Sarah for the time, effort, and attention they put into working with Meeka!
