I sent my dog here for the 3 week on/off leash training program and I could have not picked a better place for my dog to go! I was a little hesitant to drop my dog off to some random person but when I dropped him off Alivia reassured me and made sure I knew he would be treated like family! Alivia did amazing at keeping me updated the 3 weeks my dog was there and posted on her Instagram daily so i could see his progress. I did not expect my dog to come back a solider but he surely is more well-behaved than I could have imagined and I am truly grateful. When it was time for the go home Alivia was very thorough with showing me the commands my dog learned and how to use the e-collar and prong collar. My dog went from barking at everyone he saw and pulling on the leash to now being able to take him out to eat at restaurants on the patio! Thank you to Alivia and everyone at the Next-Door K9 Sandford facility!! Mr.Meeses truly misses ya'll :)

Don’t send a puppy. We sent our 4 month old puppy for a 3 week stay for training. When the trainer came to our home we expressed two main concerns: leash etiquette and socialization with other dogs (to curb her unbridled excitement when she meets other dogs). When she came back, she sits a little bit better, lays down a little bit better, has zero leash etiquette, and was “unable to be socialized with other dogs because all of the other dogs were ‘dog aggressive.’” It was essentially explained to us that, “she’s still a puppy” and training was on us. It was also suggested that we send her back for another course so she could have, “off leash training.” We feel like we are little better than square one with our puppy. We were also promised daily updates via text, “except on weekends.” We got maybe 6 texts across 3 weeks updating us on training and several of those texts were received after we prompted the interaction. The trainer has been available to us for questions, but the answer has basically been, “you’re making errors in continuing to train your dog.” We were told any “negative reinforcement” used would be “withholding of treats to correct the behavior” but as it turns out they use a prong collar—which our puppy is scared to death of now. She barely lets us put it on her. All in all it was not a positive experience whatsoever. I would not send our puppy again or any puppy for that matter.

Maggie had a great experience from all I can tell! She learned some self-control. She knows Place, release, free, sit, heel, come, and just learned some impulse control. At 14 mons and an active lab, I recommend NextDoor K-9 to all dog lovers who need more discipline with their four-legged friend!!

We sent Ozzy our blue heeler for the 4 week reactivity board and train program. Our expectations were exceeded. After a year of not being able to walk Ozzy, or take him around other dogs we were at our wits end. David was phenomenal. Communication was consistent and helpful. It is obvious that David genuinely cared for our dog and is passionate about his work. Not only were we delivered a dog that walks like a pro on a leash, we were delivered a dog that had an absolute blast. If you are looking for a solution for your dog you found the right place. Worth every penny.

We could not be happier with the service provided by Zack and the Next-Door K9 Solutions team for our sweet boy, Max! We originally contacted Zack because Max was in desperate need of the training we were unable to provide on our own due to time limitations and lack of knowledge. Zack is a miracle worker!! His techniques are thorough and he truly cared for and loved our baby just as we would at home. Everything was seamless from start to finish!! The consultation, pickup, weekly check-ins, drop off, and the training session for US at drop off. Max is trained now and happier than ever!!! The results of Max’s time with Zack brought tears to our eyes and we will forever be grateful!! We have small children and now, because of Next-Door K9 Solutions, they will be able to experience the joy and excitement of having a dog without being fearful. Thank you Zack!!
