Dean's List K9 Training LLC

Emily with Dean's List has been an absolute life saver. Our girl Ember had a very rough start to life and became unbearable in a lot of ways. Emily has helped not only Ember's confidence grow but me and my husband's as her owners as well. Ember went from an unfocused, too energetic puppy to a focused, more calm, and well listened pup. We will forever be thankful for Emily and all she has done for us to help shape Ember into the dog we always hoped for.

Alena, with DL K9 was a life saver! Our frenchie mix was a terror before training. Jumped on everyone when greeting, aggressive toward other dogs on walks, leash puller, very unregulated nervous system around every dog. But not anymore! Alena worked with us to get Drako in tip top, very good boy, shape! He can now go on walks and never pulls! We can pass dogs without having melt downs and having to physically restrain him. He sits and goes into down position and stays until we release him out of position. She helped us crate train him and now that is his safe, calm space at home! Not only did we meet with Alena each week, but DL K9 also hosted outings where Drako was able to be exposed to other dogs in training. This was a great way to help him experience outdoor distractions safely and with Alena right there working with us through any issues. He is a different dog in the very best way! My only regret- we went two years without calling Alena! I am so impressed we have signed up our very disobedient chihuahua to start training next month! I can’t wait to have two perfectly behaved dogs! Thanks, Alena and the DL K9 crew!

This is me and my boy Obi-Wan with his puppy prep 101 training certificate, we have been blessed to be part of the Deans List family!!! Obi was a crazy dog until we learned all the right things with Alena his trainer. I am forever grateful for Alena and all the things she’s taught not only me as an owner but Obi as well! Savannah was always great to talk to about payment plans, and was very informative on everything!! I will 100% be returning for extended training.

We had an incredible experience with Dean’s List Dog Training, especially working with Mackenzie and our new puppy, Daphne, our mini Aussie shepherd. As new dog parents, our only prior experience was with older, large breed dogs, so raising and understanding a high-energy puppy was completely new territory for us. Mackenzie was truly a blessing. She helped us understand not just what Daphne needs, but how she thinks and why she behaves the way she does. That insight made all the difference. Mackenzie is incredibly personable, patient, and knowledgeable. She communicates clearly, answers every question thoughtfully, and makes you feel confident and supported throughout the process. You can tell she genuinely cares about both the dogs and their owners. We feel so much more prepared and connected with our puppy because of her guidance. I highly recommend Mackenzie and Dean’s List Dog Training to anyone looking for an exceptional trainer!
