Quality Canines by Kim is a professional dog training business owned and operated by Kim Ryan-Mueller, a certified dog behaviorist and trainer. She provides in-home, one-on-one training for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, focusing on positive reinforcement methods that avoid hitting, yelling, or hanging. Every member of the family, including children as young as 2.5 years old, is taught how to communicate with and train their dog using consistent commands and hand signals. Training includes obedience, behavior modification, and field trips to real-world environments like parks and busy streets to build confidence. Kim offers lifetime support with free follow-up visits for any issues that arise after training. She also hosts exclusive dog parties for trained dogs to maintain socialization. Her approach emphasizes building trust, confidence, and a strong bond between dogs and their owners through patience, praise, and motivation.

Kim specializes in addressing behavioral problems such as leash pulling, jumping, biting, barking, potty training, separation anxiety, and fearfulness. She customizes training for unique needs, including teaching dogs to retrieve objects like a can of pop or sit automatically at streets. All training packages come with a guarantee, and she is available 24/7 for client questions. Group classes are not offered, as she believes individualized attention yields better results.
