Hands down, the best and most respectable trainer I know!! His love for our dog while he had him in training (and beyond) is truly heartwarming! You won’t be disappointed!

Working with Mr. Walker from start to finish was very easy. From the original phone consultation to the receiving my baby girl back home after her training, he made the entire process comfortable and easy to understand. Mr. Walker is a very honest, and trustworthy professional who really has passion for what he does. I was skeptical about sending my pup to anyone for training, and for anyone it was very nerve wrecking but he took very good care of her, and her training was worth every penny. Mr. Walker eased the nerves by keeping me updated on her training and I received multiple sets of photos and videos during her stay. Solstice my German Shepherd definitely needed some work. She was very reactive to everyone, and her general obedience was just not there. However after three weeks I received an entire new dog. Still the playful and happy pup, but her obedience and demeanor really took a turn for the better. It’s very easy to walk her now, and I’m more relaxed taking her places. She listens so well, and it has created a stronger bond between us, which is Walkers main goal. I couldn’t be more happy. He also took two hours out of his time when dropping her off to teach me the ins and outs.

Chad did an outstanding job with Ozzie, our until now out-of-control Pomeranian mix. While we are working with him daily, and he still has his moments, he has responded incredibly well to the training. Before, whenever Ozzie met another dog, encountered folks on golf carts or someone visited the house, he would bark and get aggressive to the point where we would have to get him away as there was no calming him down. Today, on walks he acts beautifully when meeting other dogs and ignores the golf carts. When folks come o the door, he barks appropriately (lets us know he is on the job, then after told to do so he quiets down). He has come with us to a local art festival and behaved perfectly when folks came up to pet him and he met other dogs. We cannot recommend Walker K-9 enough!

We had a wonderful experience working with Walker K-9 Training. There is so many good things to say, but above all, we felt 100% confident that our dog would be safe and well cared for during his training. He came home the same happy, healthy dog with great manners! The results truly are amazing. We would highly recommend Walker K-9 Training to anyone!
