This review is way overdue. I run a private kennel of Cane Corsos dogs. We have been bringing our dogs to Keith's K9 training for several years now, and he has always been amazing. I found Keith 9 training through Instagram and after reviewing his page, I liked what I saw and have been bringing my dogs ever since. Keith has been absolutely incredible with all of our dogs. Each dog has their own personality and Keith knows exactly how to read each one and works well building trust in each one. Since bringing my dogs here, my Cane Corsos are able to listen,stay on commands, a close engaged heel in shops and on busy streets, and neutrality towards people, even when they get so close. Keith is constantly giving me feedback on training and provides advice and coaching. With his help, we have the support and proper guidance to develop all of our dogs to their fullest potential. Cane Corsos in general people often are judged "scary" or "dangerous" for their size, so I really wanted my dogs to have very good obedience training to be able to bring them everywhere and people can see that they are very good dogs. Since coming to Keith, I have done exactly that. I have taken my dogs everywhere and I am constantly getting compliments about how great my dogs listen on command and are not even triggered or bothered by not one stranger. My kids often also join me during training, so our dogs can listen to them as well on command. My 12 year old daughter can now easily handle our Cane Corsos on command. I cannot recommend Keith's K9 training enough! You will be amazed and most importantly satisfied with his services. Five stars are not enough for Keith's professionalism, dedication, support, and commitment to results.

We finished private training with Keith for our little extremely energetic pup (Goldendoodle) and I am so happy with the results. Every session was a learning for ourselves along with our pup and the root cause of why a certain behavior and how to correct it with appropriate tools such as prong collars and e collars. After 5 sessions I can confidently say that my pup has learned to listen to me and he knows that he will be rewarded for his good behavior. These include basic obedience such as sit, down, heel, come, stay, place. Every one of these commands included a demonstration and getting into the head of my pup as to what he is thinking in every situation in real world and how to tackle those effectively. We are very happy with our training and I recommend Keith ‘s personal training if you are having troubles with basic obedience

Keith has been amazing with my dog Winston! We were having behavioral issues with him and Keith was able to figure out what triggering him and how to get him to not react to those triggers. He has also been amazing with teaching us how to use the e-collar with Winston. Keith is very good at explaining his process and why we do certain things. I am so glad I found him to help train my dog. He is very reasonably priced as well. I can't wait to do a few more private lessons with him and some group lessons as well!

Keith is a fabulous trainer. He is patient and kind with the dogs and their owners. Our dogs have a great foundation. I can’t say enough good things about Keith and all of his recommendations. I would give him 10 stars if I could!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Keith from Keith's K9 Training, and I can confidently say that his services have made an extraordinary difference in the behavior and obedience of our 1 year old German Shepherd. Keith's flexibility with scheduling and his exceptional training skills have transformed our dog's behavior and allowed us to enjoy a more harmonious and structured relationship. From the very beginning, Keith impressed us with his professionalism and dedication to understanding our specific needs and goals. He took the time to listen to our concerns and tailored a training program that would address them effectively. Keith's extensive knowledge and experience in dog training were evident throughout our sessions. One of the most remarkable transformations Keith facilitated was in our dog's ability to walk alongside us in public places. Prior to the training, our German Shepherd would often become overly excited or easily distracted by the surroundings, making it challenging to take her on outings. However, thanks to Keith's expertise, our furry companion now walks calmly beside us, even in the face of distractions. This newfound skill has given us the freedom to bring her along anywhere we go, which has enhanced our bond and made her an integral part of our daily activities. What sets Keith apart is his ability to provide the necessary tools to guide our dog towards becoming the best version of herself. He not only trains the dog but also empowers the owner with the knowledge and techniques needed to reinforce the training at home. Keith's patience, clear communication, and positive reinforcement methods create an environment where both the dog and owner feel comfortable and motivated to succeed. I cannot emphasize enough how invaluable Keith's training has been for us. Our GSD's improved behavior is a testament to his expertise and dedication to his craft. Keith's passion for helping dogs and their owners shines through in every session, and he genuinely cares about the well-being and progress of each dog he trains. I would recommend him to anyone facing the same challenges I did! If you're seeking a professional dog trainer who can bring structure, obedience, and harmony into your relationship with your furry friend, I wholeheartedly recommend Keith's K9 Training. With his flexible scheduling, excellent training techniques, and the tools he provides, you'll be amazed at the positive transformation your dog can achieve. Thanks to Keith, we now have the dog of our dreams, and we couldn't be happier.
