Services
K9 University offers a variety of private and group training services. Private dog training sessions are ideal for dog owners whose: work schedules do not fit group class times, who prefer one-on-one instruction at a training facility or in the privacy of their own home, who want to work on specific in-home dog manners and behaviors, who have a dog that is fearful or aggressive, who may not be comfortable in a group setting and/or who want undivided, focused attention from a dog trainer for an extended period. Meanwhile, group training offers dog owners an array of class types with added socialization.
