MLK9 Dog Training

Andy, Sam and the rest of the MLK9 team did an amazing job. Before we went to MLK9 our pup couldn’t be in public, too much energy and wanted to meet everyone. We wanted to be able to take her to grab drinks or dinner and have her with us. Now after the 4 week program Mable is incredible, so calm and focused in public and isn’t distracted by who or what’s around her. The MLK9 team was incredibly communicative when our dog was in training. We were out of town but Andy kept us informed through messages and weekly update videos. If you are in East Tennessee or the surrounding area and are looking for training your dog you need to reach out to Andy.

We couldn’t be happier with how Andy and all his trainers took care of our dog! They were all professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about the dogs. They took the time to explain the training process, answered all questions, and gave us the tools to continue training at home. So, if you’re looking for someone who truly understands dogs and is committed to helping both pets and owners succeed, I highly recommend them! We’re so grateful for the positive impact they’ve had on our family.

I can’t say enough great things about Andy and the entire MLK9 team. Oakley completed their three-week board-and-train program for obedience and service dog training, and the experience exceeded my expectations. Leaving your dog with someone for three weeks is never easy, but the MLK9 team made me feel confident from the start. They genuinely care about the dogs they work with and treat them like family while still maintaining the structure and consistency needed for successful training. Oakley came home with a much stronger obedience foundation, better focus, and the skills we need to continue working toward her service dog goals. Just as importantly, they took the time to educate me so I understood how to maintain and build on everything she learned. The communication, professionalism, and dedication from Andy and his team were outstanding throughout the entire process. It’s clear they have a true passion for helping both dogs and their owners succeed. If you’re considering obedience training, behavior modification, or service dog training, I highly recommend MLK9. Thank you, Andy and the entire team, for taking such great care of Oakley and giving us the tools to keep growing together.

We have two mini schnauzers one is six years old and one is 14 months old. Andy transformed their behavior and made our life so much better and there is so much difference in their behavior! They are easier to handle and they know the commands we just have to make ourselves be consistent. Andy did a great job training us too, which is the secret to keeping them disciplined. I highly recommend MLK9 Dog Training! Andy and his associates are incredible to work with, very patient with us and loving with the dogs. I highly recommend them.
