Testimonials
Waller K-9 has done an incredible job with our dog, Mabel! She came home from Camp Pup with big improvements in her manners, confidence, and house training. Dylan’s guidance has made a world of difference–not just for Mabel, but for me as her owner. Without his support, I would’ve felt lost trying to help her become the well-mannered, obedient, loving dog I’ve always hoped for.
– Client
I couldn’t recommend Waller K-9 more highly. Dylan is truly exceptional at what he does.
– Client
We had our dog, Latte, trained by Waller K-9, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From the moment we met Dylan and his wife, we knew Latte was in good hands. The team is professional, experienced, and genuinely passionate about what they do.

About the Trainer
Waller K-9 Training is a professional dog training business located on Fowl River Road in Theodore, Alabama, offering a fusion of dog training services and premium pet boarding. Founded in January 2020, the 80-acre campus provides a structured, immersive environment for dogs to learn obedience, socialization, and behavior modification. Led by trainer Dylan, the program emphasizes socially responsible and obedient behavior through tailored training paths including Camp Pup for puppies, Leash Leadership, the B.O.S.S. program for off-leash reliability, and the intensive Ambassador program for advanced working dog skills. The facility also offers boarding, doggy daycare, and transportation services, ensuring dogs receive consistent care and training whether staying overnight or visiting daily. Owners are encouraged to participate in training sessions to reinforce skills at home, creating a bonded, long-term partnership between pet and family.
The training approach blends positive reinforcement with e-collar conditioning for advanced obedience, particularly in the B.O.S.S. and Ambassador programs. Dogs are exposed to real-world distractions including traffic, other animals, storms, and vacuum cleaners to build confidence and focus. The campus features insulated kennels, training cots, social yards, and off-leash exploration areas, making it ideal for dogs needing structure, exercise, and behavioral rehabilitation.
Waller K-9 serves Gulf Coast communities with a focus on transforming dogs with issues like leash pulling, reactivity, resource guarding, separation anxiety, and poor recall. Their programs are designed for puppies through adult dogs, with specialized tracks for family companions, working dogs, and behavior correction. The business also sells trained German Shepherds and offers a membership-based StayCare program for weekly socialization and boarding.
Dylan, the owner and trainer, holds a Bachelor’s in Information Systems Management and a Master’s in Business Administration from Florida Atlantic University, and has a background in collegiate soccer and private piloting, bringing discipline and structure to his training philosophy.
