Testimonials
“The transformation in incredible, thanks to Randall. He is an excellent trainer! He truly understands animals, their behaviors, and how to train them; there are none better than him. She was in excellent condition when we picked her up!! We rate him 10++++. Lily had 6 weeks of Obedience and Field Training. Prior to training she pulled/jerked on leash and ignored commands; in the field she pointed everything. She now is obedient and fun at home and in public places, and she only points quail!! He was persistent and consistent with her training, and she finally got it!! He taught us how to continue her training at home. Through his training, she became obedient, confident, and eager to please. He changed her life and ours as we now get to enjoy this wonderful dog doing activities that once were not possible. We absolutely would go through this journey again with Randall. Thanks, Randall!!!!”

“Liberty Canine changed everything for me & my good boy. He’s a great house dog & very obedient after spending a couple week with Randall, which is great for me as I am a first time dog owner. His obedience along with the classes I have been provided have improved our relationship & helped me understand how to communicate with my dog. I was afraid that my dog would never be a bird hunter, as he was not interested in birds & was gun shy. Liberty Canine changed that all & now he’s a bird hunting machine that holds steady until flush & doesn’t care about gun fire at all. I am very thankful of the training, now we can be buddies in the woods & at home”

“This guy is a master at his craft. Randall understands dogs on a level beyond comprehension and is incredibly disciplined. Our Belgian Malinois has done extensive obedience training with him and is an absolute rockstar. I can’t recommend him enough”

About the Trainer
LIBERTY CANINE – LLC is a SOF Veteran Owned and Operated company dedicated to providing quality training to pets, hunting dogs, and their owners. Their goal is to help build better bonds and companionship between dogs and handlers, believing in “Freedom through obedience.”
The company keeps things small, taking in a limited number of dogs at a time to ensure each dog receives appropriate one-on-one time with the trainer. They focus on training the dog in front of them, dedicating necessary time without rushing or taking shortcuts. They aim for dog owners to have the ability to let their dogs live life to the fullest, achieving a lifetime of enjoyment and memories through a functional foundation of obedience for safety.
They offer professional dog training services including board and train programs, lessons, and general boarding. They are currently accepting board and trains for Georgia and surrounding states.
