I had the privilege of attending the Larry Krohn workshop at Joint Forces K9 this past March, and the experience was absolutely incredible. Not only is Larry an exceptional trainer, but the event itself was hosted flawlessly by Rob and his team...

I had the opportunity to attend a dog training seminar at Joint Forces K9 Group with Nate Schoemer, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. Joint Forces K9 Group was the perfect host—professional, well-organized, and welcoming...

Awesome group to work with. Very patient & professional. They are also willing to teach your dog a language other than what they do there, as long as you print out commands! Thanks to Abigail Wilmuth & the rest of the JF K9 team!

Terrific experience with Joint Forces K9 Group. We have 2 special pooches undergoing 2 week residential training now and are looking forward to the positive changes their training and our maintenance of the training will have in our home.

Moxy and I were treated as if we were the only ones there. Dylan took extra time to evaluate and suggest and I never felt more at home with everyone I had interacted with. Highly recommend.

Very kind, patient, and knowledgeable. In just an hour introduction session, our extremely velcro husky-german shepherd was trying her best, and made small but happy progress. There was another family being helped with their tiny doodle, and I watched that dog as well and there was steady progress there too. The trainers really do boost their confidence enough to trust the owner

Loved our experience! Our dog CoCo spent 4 weeks with her trainer, Trey. We are super satisfied with the care she got while training. We loved that we could watch her progress during her stay. We appreciated their willingness to work with us and give us "training" as well. Thank you Trey and all the staff involved with Coco.

Very knowledgeable in how to teach you how to teach your dog. Can't wait to see what's next

Friendly and helpful staff!! Took our Luna in for the board and train program on the same day that we called! Excited to see her progress at the 2 week mark!!

We handed Dylan quite the challenge: an unruly, bottle-raised rescue pup with a big personality, boundless energy, and a brain that’s always one step ahead of everyone else in the room (but with zero confidence, yelping at the end of her leash). With a mix of stubbornness, smarts, and serious drive (thanks to her unique breed blend), June needed someone with the right balance of structure, intuition, and heart. Enter Dylan. From the start, it was clear he simply gets dogs. He met June exactly where she was, saw through her sass and smarts, and brought out the best in her. While we’re still convinced not even Cesar Millan himself could fully conquer her potty training — Dylan cracked her code turning chaos into something teachable, and gave us back a dog who’s starting to learn how to channel all that energy in the right direction. And best of all? She loved him. We’re glad she’s in such capable hands and genuinely looking forward to what he’ll help her accomplish after her upcoming session next month.
