FirstBarkJosh is the absolute best!! I had an aggressive pup that bit three people and I thought I was going to have to rehome her. Josh was able to turn her into a completely different dog. He truly is the dog whisperer. He takes his time and is super patient. I couldn't recommend him more!!

About Fearless K9 LLC
Fearless K9 specializes in high-drive, genetically intense, and behavioral outlier dogs, the “12%” most trainers struggle with. We go beyond obedience and quick fixes by addressing leadership, structure, and the canine cultural framework that drives behavior. Our PET² (Perception, Expectation, Tolerance) and CCT² (Constant Communication Training) systems teach dogs to default to human leadership instead of instinct, even under pressure. Trusted by owners, rescues, and professionals as the last-stop solution when other training has failed, we provide clarity and structure that others miss, turning chaos into confidence. When instinct and leadership collide, dogs follow the one who has earned their trust.

Josh and Regina treat my Gracie like family ! ;) Ive learned and continue to learn such valuable priceless insight in training my girl! Thank you !!!!!
Josh is amazing with our shepard. He is patient and will tell you what to do to make you and your dog better. He works as hard as you do to make your dog the best they can be. Thanks Josh for all of your hard work with us and chaos.
We had an incredible experience at Fearless K9 with our puppy, Baby! We did the Puppy Primer, and it was truly eye-opening not just for Baby, but for us as owners. Josh was so thorough, patient, and knowledgeable, making sure we had all the tools and guidance to set Baby up for success. We highly recommend Fearless K9 to anyone looking for expert training and a supportive learning environment!

Highly recommend, would give 10 stars if we could. Josh is wonderful. After just 2 sessions we saw vast improvement in our 3 dogs, 2 German shepherds and a St. Bernard. Although we’re both experienced life long dog owners, Josh was able to quickly point out things we weren’t able to identify ourselves and explain it in simple ways so we could understand what was occurring, easily identify it as it happens and take the steps necessary to encourage behavior we wanted to see Ave prevent behaviors we didn’t. While he specializes in helping aggressive dogs, he’s amazing with all of them and definitely worth seeing. He’s experienced with corrective devices but does not push them. One of ours dogs was struggling and we saw huge improvement quickly without any devices. A friend recommended him to us and we can’t say enough. 100% recommend for any breed and personality of dog.
