STAT K9 Training

We did board and train with Tina and I can’t say enough positive things about the experience! Tina is the most agreeable person I have ever met. I knew right away my PWD would be in good hands and on the road to success. Since we were away Tina checked in and sent progress reports and videos every day. I could tell from the videos my girl was happy, stimulated and focused on learning. It was the first time ever boarding a dog and I would never hesitate to trust Tina with my baby in the future! Thanks Tina!!!

I am so pleased with the training, support, and service I received from Tina at STAT K9 Training. Tina gave our family many resources and daily updates to keep us connected to the training she was doing with our five month old puppy. Our pup came home a different dog! We were able to eat a family meal peacefully at our table without bad puppy behavior among many other significant improvements in obedience. I highly recommend connecting with Tina about your dog.

our sheepadoodle Bella did the 2 week board and train with Tina Benson in November of 2024 and the results were nothing less than miraculous (seriously, not an exaggeration). Bella prior to training had 0 recall, was impulsive and extremely stubborn. She would regularly get herself into trouble (she’s eaten 2 field mice) and overall was just beyond a handful. We were referred to Tina through a random encounter with another sheepadoodle parent whom raved about Tina’s expertise and results. While we were hesitant on ecollar training and the use of a prong collar, Tina was able to prove that the methods are not scarring or intrusive (for example: the day of drop off Tina had to step out for a moment and come back into the house and Bella was extremely happy to see her, as opposed to running away). Tina was thorough in training us on how to be good parents to Bella, and in training Bella to be non reactive and more calm. It has been nearly a month since we’ve had Bella home and she is a very well trained and obedient puppy. We have got so many compliments about bella’s behavior during her walks since her training & couldn’t be happier. We would recommend Tina to anyone looking for a solid trainer with great results.

Amazing Trainer!!! 🏆 We couldn’t be happier with the results after working with Tina at STAT K9! She helped train Emmy, our 1 year old Maltipoo, and the transformation has been incredible. Not only is our dog much better behaved, but we also learned so many valuable techniques to continue reinforcing good habits at home. Tina was patient, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about her work. She took the time to understand our specific concerns—whether it was leash pulling, barking, or learning commands—and tailored the training sessions to meet our needs. Our Emmy responded so well to the positive reinforcement methods, and now walks are more enjoyable, guests are welcomed without chaos, and basic commands are second nature. We genuinely feel like we’ve built a stronger bond with Emmy, thanks to Tina. If you’re looking for a trainer who is effective, compassionate, and truly invested in helping you and your dog succeed, we highly recommend Tina and STAT K9.
