Hours for drop in training puppies

You can call and work out a time. I drop my dog off before they open at 9. They are pretty good about being flexible.

Question on Google
How old has to be the dog yo be training..?

That's probably about right. Give them a call. Depending on the size of dog and any problematic behavior, if applicable, they may ask u to come in for a free assessment before scheduling a dog in a class w other dogs.

Community answer · Karen Johnson · 2019-09-21

I think 3 to 6 months

Community answer · Cari · 2019-09-21

K9 Guardians is family owned and is absolutely amazing! It is clear how much they love animals. Everyone we have met has been fantastic with both of our dogs. Not only did they train our dogs with integrity, but they also explained the reasoning behind each of the commands and took time to work with us. We never felt rushed. We would recommend K9 Guardians to anyone! Thank you Joe, Gary, Ed and Nikki we are so grateful to you all and Ebby and Melady love you.

Please read. This is the first post I have EVER made about a company. We boarded our 2 dogs for a week, and when we picked them up our one kept vomiting, and could not go to the bathroom as his bladder and stomach were empty. He also threw up 8 times in his first 9 hours back with us, most coming after he couldn't go to the bathroom so he was already running on empty. He ended up with a respiratory and urinary tract infection. When we called to ask they said he was fine and on him getting sick, "it happens." We ended up spending just about the same to treat our dog as it cost to board them both for the week. Also, when we picked them up we were given some food back, and we only packed enough for their 2 meals a day, so they did not get fed 2 of their meals each. Please do not board your dog here.

Our dog 3P0 didn’t know ANY commands and had 0 body awareness on runs and walks. K-9 Guardians were able to make a complete 180 on who we thought 3P0 could be as an energetic puppy. Will definitely recommend to other dog owners!!!
