What people have asked about this business.

Do you board aggressive dogs? He is an Australian Shepard and just gets nervous & scared.

We have an aggressive dog, they boarded him and he did great.

We do and our rate for boarding is $30 per night. We have private kennels and we can let him/her out alone. Thanks, Chris

Question on Google
do you use e collors

Hi Jennifer, yes we use e-collars, leash training, treat training, and verbal praise to teach the dogs boundaries and commands. My program is also based on the dogs having fun during training, while remaining focussed. Thanks for your question.

Someone mentioned a name like Good earth dog training but I can’t seem to find anything listed like that. A gal does individual training, does anyone have any suggestions? thanks

Chris and crew at UK9 are my go to.

I'm unfamiliar, BUT I can tell you that Chris and Universityk9 does great. I did a 2week board and train first my blue heeler puppy who after moving was showing signs of aggression towards and older sickly dog, and was terrible at walking on and off leash. After working with Chris, it was almost like night and day. I highly recommend Universityk9.

We’ve asked for the video. The stories keep changing. She was a Dutch/mix and 36 pounds, and not even a year old.

We’ve asked for the video. The stories keep changing. She was a Dutch/mix and 36 pounds, and not even a year old. Please show me a dog with zero agility training who can scale a concrete wall. 12ft you say? Sure. Show us the video that we’ve been asking for of her scaling the wall with someone inches away. The stories don’t add up. Beautiful dog? From what I recall you said you couldn’t stand her anyway. This was after you refused responsibility, and threatened me.

My in-laws took their puppy here and had wonderful results in puppy training! So when we got our puppy we brought him here as well! Amazing results! Amazing customer service! We trust our dog is in good hands here and it’s been proven multiple times! Highly recommended.

I brought my 2 Dobermans in for Chris for a two week board and train. I had taken them somewhere else beforehand with no real luck. We couldn’t even walk the younger one. Once you put a leash on him, it was like opening the chute at a rodeo, and he was determined to not let you make the 8 seconds. He was a bad jumper, nipper, and excitement urinator. Picking them up, even in all the excitement, there were no issues with any of those quirks. The dogs seemed comfortable with Chris, even like they were ok coming with me or staying there. I can tell he laid a good foundation, and should be a lot easier for me to continue the training now.

We love UniversityK9! The owner, Chris, is an excellent dog trainer and very helpful, compassionate and friendly. We have sent two of our Huskeys there and it makes a world of difference in their behavior and manors. We have also boarded our dogs for several days and Chris will do brush up training on manors that need fine tuning. Chris is available after training for consults on the phone. We really appreciate his service and knowledge. I would highly recommend UniversityK9.

Excellent place, I highly recommend to all looking for K9 training and affordable boarding. Chris and his team did a complete 180 on our 1 year old German shepherd. Cannot speak more highly of his training, communication and professionalism!
