RP K9 Academy is a professional dog training business based in Raleigh, North Carolina, offering personalized training programs for dogs of all ages and temperaments. Led by certified trainer and canine behavior expert B’Angelo White, the academy specializes in board and train programs, private lessons, group classes, service dog training, and protection dog training. Their approach combines real-world obedience training, holistic care, and lifetime trainer support to ensure lasting results. They focus on reshaping the dog-owner relationship through structure, mental enrichment, and nutrition, with custom plans tailored to each dog’s needs. They also offer hand-selected training supplies and organic, human-grade meal plans designed to support behavior and health. Their services are designed for families seeking calm, confident, and well-mannered dogs, whether dealing with reactivity, separation anxiety, or advanced protection needs.

They provide lifetime support to all clients, ensuring ongoing guidance even after training ends. Training occurs in real-life environments, not just controlled settings, to build reliable off-leash behavior. Their flagship program, the Restructured Blueprint, is a 4-week immersive board and train that includes take-home videos, equipment, and follow-up sessions. They also offer limited enrollment service dog training and two levels of protection training: Level 1 Threat Display and Executive Protection Dog Program.

RP K9 Academy emphasizes humane, balanced training methods using tools like prong collars, e-collars (ET-300), and long lines, all introduced safely and appropriately. They serve dog owners in Raleigh, Durham, Garner, Cary, Zebulon, Clayton, and Morrisville, and offer flexible payment plans to make high-quality training accessible.
