Testimonials

Highly recommend Hazard K9 for our golden pup training. Brendan started right off with Sam as a pup and has progressed him into airport travel familiarity and proper leash training. Sam also loves to be around him and his family! He is only 5.5 months old and is doing great! Thanks so much Brendan!

100% Would Recommend!! We found the Hazard k9 puppy board and train program & received a prompt, informative response to my inquiry into the program. We liked the idea of a 2 session B+T rather than one long one, & it was amazing. Our pup, Nova (4 mo at session 1, 6 at session 2) received such amazing & consistent knowledge & care during both her first, and especially her second session. Brendan kept us informed along the way, and worked with each of us (6 in our home) to show us what she needs and how to keep her training going. We felt like she was trained with our family dynamics in mind. Nova is so happy and we have built a mutual trust with the tools and skills he has provided. She’s 8mos now and can walk, explore, and play off leash. Neutrality has also been well rooted as she continues to be exposed to more of life outside of our home. Brendan is awesome and a great example to our family of consistency makes all the difference in a dog’s obedience. We feel supported knowing he is available to reach out to with questions. We are beyond grateful for Brendan’s training and service.

Brendan! What a trainer! We were first time dog parents and were confused in so many things. All free info on Google confused us even further. Trying to get our new Aussidoodle pup, Sky, to find a way into the family was becoming a task in itself. In comes Brendan, and his training helped the pup and us in equal portions.. we got consistency in handling our pup.. and our pup became a part of our family. Sky’s over excitement, extra arousal, high energy was all brought in control in a loving way that helped us and Sky. Thanks so much Brendan! And not to miss mentioning that his boarding facility is a no brainer for us. Sky is in safe, loving hands when we go out of town for a trip (when we cannot take him with us).. and we enjoy our vacation peacefully knowing Sky is well taken care of. Would highly recommend HazardK9 for training and boarding needs for your furry family member!
