Do you train service dogs for people that have dementia?

Hi Clifford! We'd love to talk to you more about how we do service training. Because it is not something we do often, please give us a call at 843-901-9499. We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Question on Google
How much y'all charge my dog is 6,7 month old

First, we would have you come in for an evaluation and meet with one of our trainers. The trainer will decide on the time and cost of the training once he has evaluated your dog.

Great Pyrenees mom here, everyone told me that I’d be wasting my time and money to even attempt training. I started to believe it after calling several trainers and being told that his breed is stubborn and not trainable. When I got the call back from Joey at K9 I was expecting to hear the same thing but he had a completely different outlook and attitude. He gave us hope and comfort immediately. I have so much gratitude and appreciation for this team and their dedication to teaching pets confidence and structure. Joey was very transparent and answered every question/addressed every concern we had. His communication was 100%. I loved our weekly report cards, it was hard being away from Stitch for so long but the report card validated that it was for the best and he was learning so much. The videos and pictures of Ali working with Stitch and giving him love really solidified that we choose the right place and he was in the best hands imaginable. Before k9 training our dog was putting us through what we called his “terrible twos” but without the guidance from K9 this would have gone on way beyond him being 2. Not only did they teach our dog how to be confident and respectful but they taught us the importance of stability and how to truly coexist with him. The difference in stitch is so huge that everyone is saying he went to boot camp. Our concerns ranged from not being able to walk him, reacting to strangers, constantly guarding our home and just not being able to control him which can be dangerous when dealing with a dog as big as you are. Stitch now walks beside us with ease, no pulling or even stopping to look at strangers and their dogs. He looks at us for commands constantly whereas before he would do whatever he wanted and ignore us. He sits when strangers and other dogs pass. His reactions to loud noises outside, knocks on the door or people passing by have subsided. We’ve practiced walking off leash ourselves and he did amazing but Stitch is a reflection of Ali’s passion, this would not be our new reality without her. I am blessed to have found K9, we now have a lifetime of peace and support. When we grow our pup family, they will go right to Joey and Ali.

Can't say enough positive things about K9 Control! We are a repeat client. Brought our golden 13 years ago and the transformation was magical! We sadly lost him after 15yr7mo and now we brought our newest addition (a mixed rescue that was a departure from the Goldens we have had with a WAY different temperament) and Ali (sorry if I spelled it wrong!) was A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!! Our Milo was a cute little puppy however after a year he was close to eviction (ok that wouldn't happen but you know what I mean if you are dealing with difficulty). 4 weeks of training and he is still the sweet loving dog we love but all of a sudden he is so much more calm. Our son's friends came over today and he didn't lose his mind at the door howling and barking. He didn't jump on anyone. He is calm and he lays down near my feet to chill. Now I ma sure today was a long day from his last day of training and getting a bath but even with long busy weekend days and a bath he has never been this calm nor has he ever been this responsive. They are worth EVERY penny you spend. Its a lot of work and they keep them for 4 weeks. If you have had dogs for a while and had to board them you know that cost on its own. But they train them and train them right! The best part is the staff are the nicest and most animal loving people. They are so patient. Thank you so much!!!

Greatly improved our dog’s obedience without sacrificing his goofball nature.

I just got my Catahoula Leopard Dog back from a one month board and train at K9 Control Training. All of my efforts to get him to recall, not breakaway to chase other dogs, walk with me without pulling, etc... had failed. I was reluctant about losing my boy for a month, but elected to enroll him mostly for his own safety. Today? Different dog! He's obedient, reacts to commands immediately, is a pleasure to take on walks and can now play freely in the common areas of my neighborhood without me worrying about him running off. He even returns the frisbee to me instead of dropping it after fetching and wandering off. I couldn't be happier. The weekly updates from K9 showed impressive progress from week to week. They are absolute pros at this. Don't even think about it. A month goes by faster than you think and is a small investment to achieve a better future for you and your dog. Thank you to everyone at K9 Control Training!
