Almost a year ago I adopted a mixed-breed puppy, Rina, from a shelter who came with a few health issues, which prevented Rina from having any exposure to the outside world as well as very limited ability to train. Rina continued to deal with many anxieties, over excitement and plenty of obedience training was necessary in order for her to succeed and live the life I had pictured for her. Many different training venues later (including a previous trainer who claimed she was "untrainable"), I found myself stuck between either having to give up Rina or find a true pathway to her being trained as well as me learning how to properly handle a dog of her magnitude. I found Klutch K9 was extremely kind, empathetic and informative during our phone consolation and given how responsive, caring and genuine they were, I was more than happy to move forward with their services. When Chris picked Rina up from my house, she was all over the place, darting around the front yard and jumping all over him. She was absolutely unable to settle and Chris took the time to explain the e-collar as well as the training approach they would take. From there, I received weekly updates with striking improvements from Rina. She is still the same goofy dog I love, just way more obedient, engaging and overall steady. Overall, I'd say that Klutch K9's services were 100% worth it and I truly feel as though they have changed mine and Rina's life for the better.

I just completed my first session. I learned a great deal about the reasons for my dogs reactive behaviors. Within just the first session, I could already see an improvement in his responsiveness to commands. Also, I love that they did not try to upsell me. They told me exactly what they recommended for future work without pushing any packages or product on me.
