Adam was able to help us with two dogs from our rescue in eastern Washington. Both dogs had different behavior needs and Adam was able to tailor the training to each dog, rather than using a blanket approach. I really appreciated his candor and honesty when giving us updates. I also really felt the "hand off" session was informative for me to understand the dogs' perspective. I can't thank Adam enough for helping out two rescue dogs, who are seeking a forever home. Both dogs have now demonstrated they have better resiliency and a foundation to build on. A true addition to their "resume" for adoption. More...

My wife and I took our chocolate lab to Katz K9 for his 3 week training and he came back home a new dog! Katz K9 did a very good job training Sheldon and thoroughly explained what all goes into/went into his training and how we can continue to improve and reinforce his training at home. 10/10 recommend Katz K9 for any dog training you might want!!

I originally called Katz K9 to get some help with on leash training our 1.5 year old lab. We had an initial consultation with Adam to discuss the different types of training and how he trains. After that we decided the three week boarding would be the best option for us and our dog. Adam was able to provide us a slot within a couple weeks. Adam did a great job keeping us up to date on how the training was going and how our dog was doing. He sent videos and pictures which made the time away much easier. When we picked our dog up, Adam showed us the training and did some training with us so we can continue to reinforce. Our lab went from dragging us on walks to walking beside Adam and us. Even his behavior around the house has improved. It has been amazing to see the improvement in just three weeks. We are so happy we went with Katz K9 and would recommend to anyone! We are so lucky to have such a great trainer in Yelm! More...

Adam is very good with all of the dogs he works with! He has that great ability to be firm yet gentle so they listen without having to feel nervous. And the dogs love him for it! If your dog needs any behavior work or anything, Adam is your guy! I’d personally recommend the board and train program so your fur baby gets the max time with him! More...
