Ezra is a sweet loving puppy but missed the training and obedience that we very much desired. Our trainer Landon did a remarkable job working with Ezra and had such a positive impact on him.
Our 6 month old boxer puppy, Mabel, has a lot of energy, but even though we were working with her daily, she needed more specialized training. After Mabel returned home, she went on her first outing with us and was a completely different dog and handled being out much better than before she went to Skyline K9.
My best-friends dog Nala is an incredible dog except for the fact that she pulled on the leash, didn’t get along with other dogs, and wasn’t focused outside of the house. Nala is now Amazing on the leash, she knows heel, and can even be off leash. Nala can now tolerate other dogs, and doesn’t try and attack them at first sight.
As Bubba grew he became aggressive around mealtime towards the two older dogs. We either had to take him back to the shelter knowing he would be put down or get professional training. Bubba’s transformation was amazing.
We enrolled our two dogs—Kaia (3‑year‑old pit with aggression and leash issues) and Shadow (3‑month‑old GSD/GSP mix)—and the progress has been unbelievable. Kaia now walks calmly, the dogs get along, and we feel equipped to keep building on their training.
We sent our golden retriever Knox for a 3-week board and train program, and the results have been incredible. We can truly see the difference in his obedience, especially with issues like resource guarding, jumping, and pulling on walks. Knox came back happier, more focused, and much easier to manage.
She has always been sweet, but very used to getting her way (leash pulling, not listening, generally running the show) after years with my parents. Two weeks of board and train later, she’s calm, attentive to the handler, listens on walks. Like finishing school, for your dog!
Did the three week off leash training for my dog Stella. For starters, I loved how they picked up Stella from our home in Woodbridge to take her to their facilities in Shenandoah. We got daily videos, pictures and written report cards with updates, and instant responses whenever we had a question.
