Why select US K9?
In today's society dogs are considered family so therefore it is essential to be selective when choosing a credible trainer and dog academy. Over the past 30 years, USK9 has trained thousands of dogs and students and has the most knowledgeable staff in the country. Nothing takes the place of experts who have the capabilities of training each dog individually.
Most trainers use one system for all dogs and fail at correctly reading their make-up and different drives. USK9's CEO and master trainer, Roger Abshire is able to discern each dog's core and establish the unique type of training to be administered to that particular dog. The principles of conditioning are uniform but different methods are used for each dog to ensure desired results are achieved at an optimal level. Don't settle for a training school that does not have the years of experience or education to be deemed a professional. Request one of our many training curriculums so that you can make the best decision for you and your dog. All courses are available on-site at our USK9 location or in the comfort of your own home.
