Warner K9

Scott worked wonders with my dog. When she was adopted as a puppy, I had no idea what her breed mix was, or what or her personality would become. After a month I realized she was a German Shepherd mixed with...a Malinois. Not an easy breed. I enrolled her in puppy classes, private training, and socialized her with other dogs. As she grew bigger, she became more and more difficult to manage. Despite having worked with two competent trainers as a pup, she was still jumping on people, pulling on leash, highly reactive to dogs, and unable to settle. She was actually kicked out of a group dog walking pack! Friends suggested I find another home for her, which I did not want to do. After completing Scott's board and train program, she had transformed into a loyal, loving dog, who follows commands and is able to settle. I'm no longer afraid she'll jump on my frail parents, or worried that she's going to pull me over. She's a wonderful companion now, just a pleasure to be around. Scott is incredibly knowledgeable, a careful listener, a master at his craft, and just a really cool guy. Highly recommend!

Excellent trainer, even better person! We signed on with Scott for his "doggie boot camp" 3-4 week training while we were out of town traveling. Our Max got sick and stopped eating. Scott went way above and beyond getting Max to the Vet, advocating for him on our behalf, and really caring for him. A very stressful situation (2,000 miles away from our sick dog) was far more tolerable because of Scott. It was obvious during all our conversations that he truly cared about Max and wanted to see him well. We took a break to make sure he was fully healthy and sent him back for round two of training and Max is a new dog. He is exceptionally well trained but more importantly, he is more confident and happy. We have used other trainers and Scott's method is both more simple and more effective. I could not recommend Warner K9 more highly.

Our pup Lucy just got back from a month long bootcamp and we are thrilled with the results. We received a dog that has a wonderful training foundation set (crate/cot ”place”/loose leash/basic commands) and a dog that is thrilled to train. Scott taught Lucy an obedience language, then taught us how to properly engage her. Scott is an extremely knowledgeable trainer and willing to give a ton of advice about how to handle certain types of behavior. He also gave us great advice on how to introduce our puppy to a new born. I cannot recommend Scott’s(Warner K9) training services enough!

We dropped our Belgian Mal, Frankie (3 y/o male) off with Scott/Warner K-9 for a month-long board and train over the holidays while we were honeymooning. My husband & I picked Frankie up today and, holy wow, Scott did an amazing job. Frankie needed some help with settling down indoors, recall, placing and leash/public manners. Frankie, while still his derpy+loving self, is like a completely different dog. Warner K-9 did a stellar job with Frankie! Scott provided us with concise and simple instructions to continue to reinforce Frankie’s training; and ultimately, a pathway to building a stronger relationship with our doggo through clearer communication and expectations. We would recommend Warner K-9 without hesitation and will absolutely train with them in the future.
