Real Success Stories From All Around K9 Clients
Teddy: From Overwhelming to Easy to Live With
When Shelby Skelton brought Teddy to us, she was not looking for a dog that could sit on cue. She needed a dog that could fit into her life, stay calm around her senior dog at home, and be manageable on outings around San Antonio. After a three week board and train, Teddy came home a different dog with a clear roadmap for keeping him that way. Read Teddy’s full story.
Billie: A Puppy Who Learned to Love Her Walks Again
Alexandra Siu’s puppy Billie used to freeze the moment the leash came out, and walks had become a source of dread for both of them. By the time Billie finished her two week board and train with our trainer Clay, that dynamic had completely flipped. Read Billie’s full story.
Kolohe: Structure for a Bright, High Energy Dog
Kolohe was not broken, she was simply untrained, and the gap between her energy and her listening skills was making daily life harder than it needed to be. Nipping, jumping on visitors, and ignoring most cues gave way to real structure through a board and train, and the picture changed completely for her owner. Read Kolohe’s full story.
Cash: From Reactive to Focused in Four Weeks
Kampbell brought her Australian Shepherd, Cash, to us because his reactivity and inconsistent listening had made public outings stressful. Four weeks of structured reactive dog training later, Cash was focused and manageable and Kampbell had her dog back. Read Cash’s full story.
Primo: Confidence and Balance for a Powerful Breed
Mallory Nelson enrolled her Boerboel, Primo, in a two week board and train hoping for meaningful change for her dog and for herself as an owner. Primo returned home more confident, obedient, and balanced, and Mallory left with the tools to keep his progress going. Read Primo’s full story.
Opal: From Fearful and Reactive to Calm and Confident
Opal came from a difficult background shaped by a traumatic encounter with another dog, which left her fearful and reactive in public. After a three week board and train, Stephen Portillo saw the transformation he had spent years hoping for, with Opal calm, curious, and confident again. Read Opal’s full story.
How Our Board and Train Program Turns These Results Around
To learn more about structure, pricing, and enrollment, see our board and train program in San Antonio and how we build each program for dogs and families across San Antonio and the West side.
Every one of these dogs is different, but the through line is the same. We build a structured plan around the dog in front of us, teach clear communication the owner can maintain at home, and prove out the new behavior in real world San Antonio settings before the dog goes home. That is why the results hold up after the program ends.
