K9 Kenny

We worked with Kenny for a package of training sessions with our heeler mix, Kai. We saw a great improvement in our pup's manners and obedience from following Kenny's guidance and instructions. The lessons went at a steady pace that kept our pup engaged but not too overwhelmed. They were simple, but effective with the right practice at home. Our main issue that we came to Kenny for was leash pulling and reactivity with other dogs. His loose-leash walking training helped us get a handle on this and he's much better for us now on walks and with other dogs. Kenny provides detailed instructions following each lesson that are good resources to go back to. He is also a great resource on all things dog training and gave us helpful advice on any questions we had. He is also very responsive to questions over email, and accomodating with any rescheduling needs. His space is set up great for training purposes and has even dedicated his backyard to dog training. We have done group training classes before, but found a lot more value in working directly with a trainer. Kai also loved seeing and working with Kenny and got excited everytime he knew where we were going. Very pleased with our training, and would recommend Kenny to anyone looking for a trainer!

We had the best experience with Kenny! He helped us train our 10 month old puppy, Franklin, learn basic obedience. He tailored the sessions to what we wanted to focus on and throughly explained every detail of the command. If one way didn’t work for us, Kenny would always have a different solution. Before one of the sessions it had rained outside causing Franklin’s paws to be a bit slippery on his floor due to walking on the wet grass before the training started. The next session, Kenny had completely redone the floor and added nonslip flooring down everywhere. We were so impressed that he went above and beyond to accommodate his clients. His house is really tailored to the dog’s needs. He also has excellent communication skills and we really loved his follow up emails detailing the prior training. It is evident Kenny truly cares about dogs and loves what he does. We are very pleased with Franklin’s training and fast improvement. Highly recommend Kenny!

We really enjoyed working with Kenny to train our 1.5-year-old dog, Haku. We quickly realized when starting to work with Kenny that ultimately, the goal of our training was to improve how we communicate with Haku, and each training session brought us closer to that. Kenny clearly knows what he’s doing. He is great about being reliable in answering our questions at any point in the week and sends detailed notes following each session. Walks with Haku are much easier, and we love doing training sessions with Haku now. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kenny to our friends or anyone in Austin looking for a dog trainer.
