Testimonials
Rich is the man! Nessa is a high energy bernedoodle that came bouncing off the walls as a puppy. She is now approaching 1 year old and showing incredible skills of obedience. First time dog owner, and I can say with confidence, I have full trust in Rich and his training. You can tell he really wants to teach to not only the animal, but also the person too. Training should always be calm, cool, and collected. Thanks Rich!

You will not be disappointed. Rich is a phenomenal dog obedience trainer with plenty of YouTube videos and years of success to validate. We are very pleased with his training methods. We enjoy that our dog listens on command, can be off-leash, and has behaviors commonly complimented in public. Thank you Sin City K9!

Sin City K-9 Training has been just awesome for our sweet poodle, Bear! He learned all of the basics quickly, and that is all because of the owner, Rich. Rich is very flexible with his schedule, which made it very easy for us to keep Bear on track!
We also liked that his sessions weren’t limited to a certain amount. He really wants your dog to be successful no matter how many lessons it takes!

About the Trainer
Sin City K-9 is a family-owned dog training business based in Henderson and Las Vegas, NV, offering personalized training solutions for dogs of all ages, breeds, and behavioral needs. Founded over 20 years ago by owner and head trainer Richard Damico, the business provides both in-home one-on-one training and immersive boarding with training programs at their private half-acre facility. Richard’s expertise is grounded in championship-level dog sports, including Mondio Level 3 and top placements in PSA 3, ensuring training methods are proven, adaptable, and effective in real-world scenarios. The business emphasizes a custom-tailored approach, listening to each owner’s goals and providing a free, no-pressure evaluation to start. Training focuses on foundational obedience, manners, leash walking, recall, and behavior modification for issues like reactivity, barking, jumping, and separation anxiety. Clients receive lifetime support after program completion, ensuring long-term success. Boarding with training includes 24/7 immersion, structured play, and a family-like environment, while in-home sessions offer flexibility and training in the dog’s natural environment.
In addition to training, Sin City K-9 offers boarding services with integrated training, making it a comprehensive solution for busy or overwhelmed dog owners. All training is conducted personally by Richard Damico, who prioritizes clear communication and teaching owners how to maintain progress at home.
