Testimonials
We could not be more happy with Chris, his team, and training program! Our 3yo Golden, Sox, constantly pulled, was leash aggressive, and barked at anything with a pulse. After 2.5 weeks with Chris and his team, he was a different dog but the same quirky personality! We especially loved the follow up appointments after Sox came home, ensuring we are trained, just like Sox. We also loved getting updates while Sox was with them, showing us what he was learning so we could prepare for him coming back.
While we have officially graduated, Chris reminds us that we can always text or call with questions, a testament to his commitment to ensure you and your dog succeed! We cannot recommend Chris, London, and the entire team enough and highly recommend them for dog training!
– Client
Chris and London were amazing dog trainers to work with. After training most our dogs on our own we had our first “problem puppy” that that needed professional help and I’m grateful we found Chris Park K9 training. Chris and London helped resolve the obedience and dominance issues we were having with our puppy and the socialization they provided with other dogs helped Romeo learn how to respect other dogs and interact appropriately. We are still working with Chris to handle fear aggression since it is not something Romeo can overcome overnight and is situational but they have given us tools and guidance to help better handle these stressful situations for our puppy. We loved the daily pictures and videos while Romeo was boarding to reassure us our big baby was doing just fine.
We have already boarded our dog with Chris while we were away and knowing how well he was cared for in training we were completely at ease knowing he would be in great hands again and the only place we will send him to in the future.
– Client
I cannot express how grateful we are to have found Chris Park K9 dog training in Salem, NH! Chris is a phenomenal dog trainer, and we consider ourselves blessed to have access to his expertise. He has successfully trained both of our dogs: Blaze, our toy Aussie, and Xena, our 8-month-old Rottweiler. Despite their vastly different temperaments, Chris demonstrated exceptional skills with all breeds.
Xena returned home not as a different dog, but as the best version of herself–truly amazing! We faced some tension between Blaze and Xena after her arrival, but Chris stepped in and worked tirelessly to resolve their issues. His dedication and passion for helping dogs and their owners shine through in every interaction.
Thank you, Chris and London, for being the best trainers around! We can’t recommend Chris Park K9 enough!
