About Us
“I started Puget Sound K9 Academy because I believe every dog deserves a chance to live their best life, and every owner deserves to enjoy a harmonious relationship with their companion.Are you tired of generic dog training that feels like a chore? We are committed to fostering strong, respectful relationships between dogs and their owners. We don’t just train dogs; we build unbreakable bonds. Our methods focus on reading your dog’s unique personality and teaching you how to communicate in a way they instinctively grasp. Imagine a dog who chooses to listen, not because they fear punishment, but because they understand and trust you implicitly.We understand that everybody has a different lifestyle, and we tailor our training to equip both you and your dog with the specific skills needed to thrive. That is why our approach focuses on positive reinforcement and clear communication that builds confidence.This isn’t just a business for me; it’s a passion to empower both ends of the leash and create happier homes, one wagging tail at a time.

The trainers are very knowledgeable and my Sadie girl has learned so much. It's great to see her progress with every session.

I found the training techniques used here to be highly effective and humane. The facility is clean and the 1-on-1 attention really helps with more difficult behavioral issues.
