"Looking for someone who has passion for dog training and knows their field? Look no further! Ken was excellent with my Chinese Crested, who can be challenging! I like that he actually has you doing the training with him and your dog, versus the method of dropping your dog off somewhere for weeks at a time.
Ken is knowledgeable, patient, flexible, hands on and always there if you have a question. I hate our training had to end at 5 weeks!"
Stephanie, with Templton
"I cannot recommend Ken enough as a dog trainer! His extensive knowledge of dog behaviors is truly impressive, and he has an uncanny ability to understand and address each dog’s unique needs. Ken is incredibly responsive to questions, always providing detailed and thoughtful answers. His flexibility with scheduling makes it easy to fit training sessions into even the busiest of schedules. What sets Ken apart is his personalized approach—he tailors each lesson to suit both the dog and the trainer, ensuring that everyone involved is comfortable and progressing at the right pace. If you’re looking for a top-notch dog trainer who will exceed your expectations, Ken is the one to call!"
