Testimonials
Rick has helped us tremendously with our dogs. We we were able to take the training and advice he gave us for one dog and apply it with our other dog as well. Rick is patient and takes his time to figure out the needs of each family he trains with. His sessions are goal focused and he has helped us with the tools we need to have well behaved and enjoyable pups in our house. Our family highly recommends Rick’s Professional K9 training!
Celeste Stradling
