Private lessons are one-on-one sessions tailored to the dog’s unique needs and conducted in the home or environment where issues occur. Board and train is an intensive 2–3 week program where dogs receive daily structured training in a professional facility, with owners receiving detailed updates and transition support. Group classes provide socialization and practical skill-building in a group setting, focusing on leash manners, recall, and polite greetings for dogs of all levels.
Testimonials
“I have had the pleasure to work with K9 Shenanigans to support two foster dogs with a variety of needs, and I truly believe their knowledge and dedication to support these rescue dogs is the reason these dogs have safely been placed with their perfect forever families. One foster participated in the board and train program to address reactivity and his ability to safely relax. After three weeks, our foster came back radiating confidence that we had never seen in him. The team at K9 Shenanigans took the extra time and effort to ensure that we and the potential adoptive family felt comfortable to build on his new confidence and new skills with leash walking and meeting new people. Shaun has gone above and beyond to make himself available to the new adoptive family to support his transition to a new home. He is thriving and it’s all thanks to K9 Shenanigans.”
– Foster Care Provider
“When we took in a new foster that seemed to suffer from separation and crate anxiety, we immediately called the team at K9 Shenanigans and got right to work. I have learned so much from our work with K9 Shenanigans, and this has allowed me to confidently continue fostering rescue dogs in need. Shaun has demonstrated great patience and taken the time to help me understand the why behind a dogs behavior before implementing realistic strategies and routines.”
– Foster Care Provider
“We have sent 4 different rescue dogs that have ranged from abused and aggressive to neglected and terrified of people. Each of them came out of their two week board and trains a new dog! None of these dogs were cookie cutter dogs and cookie cutter solutions were not going to work – thankful for a dog trainer who doesn’t believe in one size fits all dog training and works with the dog in order to come up with the best training solution. 5 stars!!”

About the Trainer
K9 Shenanigans is a dog training business founded by Shaun Dull, a head trainer with over a decade of hands-on experience, and his partner Sara. They offer individualized training programs designed to strengthen the bond between dogs and their owners through knowledge, understanding, and proven techniques. Services include private lessons, board and train programs, and group classes, all tailored to each dog’s breed, age, temperament, and specific behavioral needs. Their approach emphasizes real-life success, trust, and structure over one-size-fits-all methods. The team also includes Diamond and Sly, their own trained dogs who serve as behavioral models during sessions. They work with dogs ranging from puppies to adults, addressing issues like reactivity, leash pulling, separation anxiety, and aggression, while empowering owners with practical tools for long-term success.
Sara manages operations and client care, ensuring a warm, supportive experience, while Shaun leads all training with a balanced, psychology-informed method. Their facility-based and in-home training options provide flexibility, and they offer ongoing support to ensure progress continues after training ends.
