Testimonials

My dog, Jolene, has made huge improvements since doing the board and train. Before I sent her she was crying loudly in her crate and being destructive such as eating doors and carpet. When I picked her up I could already tell the difference! She can now loose leash walk, is mostly quiet in her crate even when I leave, and has done an amazing job staying on her “place”. She has got a lot of her personality back since her training, before she was so constantly anxious that she was loosing her goofiness. I am also so glad to have a place to board her when I go out of town that is going to keep her accountable and allow her to not loose all the progress she has made. So thankful for Southland K9 and all the work they have put in!

the team at Southernland K9 went above and beyond helping with my very special Jindo. She came in with some unique challenges, and they met her with so much patience, structure, and genuine care.

She’s come so far — more confident, calmer, and happier — while still being her wonderful, independent self. I’m forever grateful for everything they did for her (and for me!). They truly care about the dogs they work with, and it shows in every detail. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for real, lasting progress with their pup.

Southland K9 and Christina Williams did a fantastic job with my dog Riley, an American Bully. He completed the 5-week board and train and came back knowing sit, down, place, and heel. The difference is night and day. Training was the best investment I made. I also board Riley at Southland K9 whenever I go on vacation–great care and peace of mind!
