About Legion K9 LLC

Hi, my name is Kris, and I am a professional dog trainer with a passion for unlocking the true desire each dog has for pleasing their owner. As an active duty soldier, I saw first hand how far a well trained dog will go to demonstrate their loyalty. Your dog wants that relationship with you too and with the right training goals and methods, you and your dog can know a disciplined and fulfilling bond. My training philosophy is based on a balanced approach that combines positive reinforcement techniques with fair and humane corrections. I offer a variety of training services, including basic obedience, behavior modification, advanced training, and off-leash control. I have experience training dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments.

We had such a great experience with Legion K9. Susanna was very knowledgeable and consistent in her work with our golden retriever, Leo. We saw a difference in our dog from the very first week and it just continued. We can now easily take him in public with good manners and have guests over while he stays quietly on his place. The drop-off option was very convenient for me as a busy mom. It was also helpful getting texts and videos of what Susanna was working on throughout the day so I could be prepared for my homework with Leo. Would highly recommend Legion K9!

I can’t say enough good things about Kris and especially Susanna! My 2-year-old German Shepherd has made incredible progress thanks to their training. Susanna is truly one of a kind, her knowledge of dogs is unmatched, her patience seems endless, and her heart is pure gold. She connects with each dog on such a genuine level, and it’s clear she loves what she does. She doesn’t just train your dog; she teaches you how to understand and communicate better with your dog, which makes all the difference. The small class size means every dog and owner get plenty of one-on-one attention, and Susanna gives her full energy and care to each session. My dog is now calmer, more confident, and so much more enjoyable to be in public with. Susanna has completely changed my experience as dog a owner, I’m beyond grateful for her passion, dedication, and kindness. I’d recommend her to anyone who truly wants the best for their dog! Joe D.

Nicole is truly the best! From day one, she connected with our pup Sylvie and made training fun and rewarding. We’ve seen such an incredible transformation — Sylvie’s confidence and manners have improved so much. She would get so excited every time she saw her! Nicole’s passion and skill really shine through. 10/10 recommend her to anyone looking for a dog trainer who really cares! 🐕💖

We have two loving golden retrievers ages 4 and 6. As sweet as they are at home with family and friends, they were very reactive on a leash. We would have to avoid people and dogs on walks which made our walks stressful. I honestly thought they were too old to be trained until we found Legion K9. We were nervous to drop them off and leave them on the first day of training. We were pleasantly surprised how excited they were to be dropped off on day two and every day after that. They formed a great bond with their trainers, especially Nicole, during those training days. I am happy to say they are completely leash trained now and no longer react to people. Legion K9 gave us the tools to address their reactivity when we encounter other dogs and every walk they get better and better. I highly recommend this program.

Legion K9 was amazing! I took my 6 month old extremely active / unruly Ridgeback. By the end of training I was amazed at what a different dog he was, calmer,obedient. Not only did he learn but they took the time to train me ! Thank you so much Kris and Nicole.
