CRK9 Idaho

Kevin and Allie are absolutely amazing! From the very beginning, they were knowledgeable, professional, and so personable. I came to them with my big family dog, wanting her to be both a well-mannered companion and a reliable guard dog. They understood exactly what I needed and tailored the training perfectly. My dog still has her fun, loving personality, but now she’s obedient, confident, and attentive. She listens to commands instantly, behaves beautifully around my family, and I have total peace of mind knowing she’s also protective when it matters. What I love most is how much Kevin and Allie genuinely care about both the dogs and their owners. They take the time to explain everything, answer every question, and make sure you understand how to continue the training at home. And yes—they guarantee their results, and they 100% deliver on that promise. If you’re looking for trainers who truly know their craft and care about your dog like their own, Kevin and Allie are the ones to call. I couldn’t recommend them more!

I am beyond grateful for Kevin and Allie! We had our hands full with my 6.5yr old Border Collie Auzzi, he has an incredible amount of drive and energy that we just didn’t know how to manage. After completing the Board and Train program, we now have the tools and understanding to handle him confidently. Kevin and Allie provided everything we needed to set us up for success. They took the time to explain not just what they were doing, but why. We loved receiving weekly videos showing his progress, and they were always quick to answer any questions we had along the way. They made sure Auzzi and our family were comfortable and confident before bringing him home. We are 100% satisfied with our experience with CRK9. Their knowledge, patience, and passion for what they do truly show. I couldn’t recommend them enough to anyone looking for a training program their dogs!

We can’t thank Kevin and Allie enough for everything they’ve done for us. Before training, we were feeling overwhelmed and unsure how to handle our older dogs’ energy and behavior. Now, just a few weeks later, things feel completely different we finally understand how to communicate with them and set clear boundaries. Kevin and Allie truly care about what they do. They didn’t just train our dogs, they trained us to be better handlers and gave us the confidence to continue building on what we learned. We’re so grateful for the time, effort, and knowledge they poured into helping our family!

We met Kevin and Allie while taking our GSD, Kimber to D&B for some socializing and training. We had already gone through another local training both private and group classes. She was still very reactive around people, lunging and barking at everyone she saw. So happy that Kevin and Allie were there that day! We signed up for one on one sessions and what a difference! Kevin customized the training to the specific behaviors we were experiencing and future goals of what we wanted/needed out of Kimber. The previous training was fine for the basics, but CR K9 is the best in training for you and your dogs needs. We don't get to work with Kimber as much each day as we would prefer, but with the tools we now have and time, we know we will achieve our goals in the end. Knowing that Kevin and Allie are there for future questions also shows how much they care about their training and customers results. Thank you so much for all that you do! We are very grateful to have found you. - John, Julie and Kimber Fretwell
