Testimonials
I actually went to meet a rescue dog Sherri was training. Her property is beautiful, and she has very extensive knowledge of dog training. I have never done competitive dog training sports, but I have spent some time around one and Sherri is accomplished in it. She also understands that most families are looking for certain basic behaviors like, come, sit, and don’t pull the leash. Those are the ones she had taught the rescue dog she showed me.

The best place for your dogs to be when you are out of town or need some boarding and training. Highly recommend Kinship and the family atmosphere they provide.
– Name
I had my 10 month-old puppy complete a month long board & train program with Sherrie. He came home with many new skills and we could not be more pleased with our decision to use Kinship K9. The training method included lots of affection and rewards but Sherrie was also firm in her training. It was clear that she had genuine concern regarding the success, well-being & outcome for our dog. We appreciated the follow up lessons after his stay that were included in the price. I was afraid he might come home with problematic barking from being around the dogs that she boards, but that did not happen. If you need training for your furbaby or boarding, I can highly recommend Kinship K9.
