Testimonials
“Left my 6 month old Malinois (with attitude) to a weekend of doggy boot camp with Rozalynn & Echo Ridge K9 this weekend. He and I both love and appreciate all the progress that was made while in her hands! Thank you and you did a tremendous job with him!”
– Randy Graham
“We boarded our Dutch Shepard at Echo Ridge K9 for 3 days and she had the best time! I had no worries whatsoever dropping her off and had fully confidence that she would be well cared for. I absolutely recommend Roz and Echo Ridge K9 for boarding and training. We are already planning to drop her there in July and September!”
– Heather Stearns
“When I reached out to Echo Ridge K9 I was desperate for help in training my older rescue dog, Huck. I’m so happy our paths crossed! Rozalynn gave us the knowledge and skills to continue to be the best pair we can be. I’m so excited to have found a trainer who is truly dedicated and cares! I highly recommend Echo Ridge and look forward to continuing training. A million thank you’s!”
