Hey, Bark, why do you promote business for people who've had multiple animals die under their care under suspicious circumstances, including two within the same the same month, and actively lies about their date of death and sabotages any chance of a conclusive necropsy? Does this mean Bark stands with animal abusers? More...

SEVERAL dogs have died in this man's possession. Do not leave your dog with this man.

It should be known that this man is a liar and operates a business that claims to train and board dogs, but instead he’s irresponsible which unfortunately has led to the death of at least 3 families fur babies. The latest story has brought about the attention of many, as Alan left a Bernadoodle named Brooklyn in his van during a training session. Rather than immediately rushing to the vet and contacting the family, Alan led the family to believe for days that the dog was doing great. DO NOT USE THIS MAN FOR ANYTHING. He does not deserve to touch another dog again. More...

Dog murderer. Selfish f*** just in it to make money. Doesn’t care about the dogs or the owners. This is animal Cruelty. Who does this kind of stuff? He should rot in hell and never take care of another animal or human in his life. He should be jailed. I hope he’s left in a car or kennel in Texas heat and see how he feels. And when he’s sweating and dizzy and vomiting from heatstroke, he’ll
Be ignored and then die and be left there for hours to finally be taken to a morgue. His personal dogs should also be removed from
His home

Terrible experience in 2017 when we took our pup to him. She did the boarding training (puppy version) and came home with severe matting on her front legs. She was medium hair and the underside of her front legs were matted beyond fixing. This means she spent unknown amounts of time sitting in a kennel unable.to do anything lay there. She learned very little and we even attended the follow up classes but she learned so little during the boarding that the class was difficult and pointless. More...

Alan Brown needs to be held accountable and not allowed ever to be around anyone’s dog. He killed a lovely and healthy 3 years baby dog in less than 48hrs under his care. Let’s bring justice to Brooklyn.

Our dear friends lost their beloved Brooklyn due to Alan’s neglect:

My dog died with K-9 Direction and Alan Brown

I don’t normally use Facebook but I need justice for my dog and I will relentlessly pursue this until this guy is out of business and can never do this to anyone again.

Prior to leaving for our three week honeymoon overseas, we boarded our Bernadoodle (Brooklyn) with Alan Brown at K9 Direction on Friday June 23rd at 1pm.

On Sunday June 26th, Alan Brown took Brooklyn to Creekside Pet Care Center DOA.

On July 2nd, after multiple failed attempts to get in touch with Alan for general updates on Brooklyn, we decided to have our friends go to his home and retrieve him. It was only then that Alan Brown finally answered the phone and informed us that Brooklyn had DIED on Wednesday, June 28th and provided an inconsistent account of what occurred. Prior to this discussion Alan had been very difficult to get in touch with and would only communicate through text messages that gave us the impression that everything was fine.

After a group of our friends showed up at his house and we collectively grilled him for answers, here are the key details of the incident :

1. Heat Negligence: Our dog was left unattended inside a van during his training session (for over an hour) in the scorching Texas heat, which ultimately led to his untimely death. This level of negligence and disregard for an animal's life is unacceptable. The vet at CPCC received a distress call from Alan on Sunday evening, June 25th at 5:17pm. (We dropped Brooklyn off on June 23rd)

2. Deceptive Communication: When we reached out to the trainer for updates on our dog's well-being, Alan provided misleading information and failed to disclose the severity of the situation. This deliberate misrepresentation caused us unnecessary anguish and prevented us from taking immediate action. He failed to use the emergency contact we provided him and as a result we are unable to get an autopsy done. The vet we spoke with also mentioned that Alan insisted on cremating Brooklyn but thankfully he was unable to because they checked Brooklyn’s chip and realized he was not the right dog owner.

3. Lack of Transparency: Despite our repeated requests for a detailed account of what transpired and an honest explanation of the events leading to our dog's passing, Alan Brown consistently evaded the truth and provided conflicting statements. Alan’s lack of transparency raises serious concerns about his professionalism and the care provided to other animals in his custody. We feel his intention was to continue to mislead us until the vet was forced to cremate Brooklyn. He told the vet at CPCC that he attempted to contact my wife and our emergency contact multiple times and was unsuccessful. This is a complete lie.

We are devastated by the loss of our beloved companion and the circumstances surrounding his passing. Our painful decision to cut short our honeymoon and return to Dallas to lay our dog to rest is a testament to the love and bond we shared.

Alan Brown is a white supremacist dog killer

4 July 2023

This guy should serve jail time for his abuse to animals. Multiple dogs have died due to his negligence. He should never be able to be near an animal ever again!

3 July 2023

The person who runs this business, Alan Brown, is an awful human being. A dog died in his care due to him leaving IN A CAR FOR OVER AN HOUR toward the end of June. Many other suspicious activity from this man in the reviews on google. JUSTICE FOR BROOKLYN More...

3 July 2023

DO NOT USE!! A young, healthy dog passed away in Alan’s care due to negligence and abuse. He then provided false updates to the owners regarding the dog’s well-being, when the dog had already been dead for days. He also tried to have the dog cremated prior to contacting the owners and notifying them of their loss. This is not the first time a dog has died in his care due to his negligence. I hope no other pup has to suffer the abuse of Alan Brown, and my heart goes out to the families who have lost their babies because of this careless man. More...

3 July 2023

I had been considering boarding my pup with this business for obedience training, but now I am deeply saddened and disgusted by the actions of this business owner. His negligence resulted in the death of a friend's dog, and his unethical, unprofessional behavior has caused an unimaginable amount of pain for their family. He flat out lied to them, and later avoided their questions while also attempting to have their dog cremated without their consent. He caused their fur baby to suffer a horrible death and ruined their honeymoon abroad. I truly hope this business is shut down, and that Alan can be held accountable for his actions. More...

Do not trust this company with your fur babies. Alan Brown negligently left a healthy 3yr old dog in his van and he died in his care. He then lied to the owners and tried to have their dog cremated before they returned from their honeymoon to cover it up. Disgusting and extremely unprofessional More...

Alan’s negligence caused the death of my friends 3 year old dog. He left Brooklyn in a hot car in the middle of summer and continued to lie to my friend while she was out of town. His disregard for the needs and care of animals is a disgrace. More...

🚩🚩🚩NEGLAGENT!! Alan left my friend’s dog unattended in a vehicle in SUMMER IN TEXAS for over an hour. This led to the tragic loss of their beloved dog while they were away on their honeymoon! Their dog passed working 48 hours of being in this man’s care and they were not notified for DAYS! Instead he skirted communication and lied! DO NOT trust him or this company with your pet!!!

Alan Brown is a negligent trainer who has killed multiple dogs. He left a dog in the heat during 100 degree temperatures resulting in his untimely death. There was no transparency from his end as he lied throughout the week to the owner's about the dog's progress in training, when in fact, the dog had been deceased for a week. The dog passed within 48 hours of his care and the owner's were not notified until a week later.

The owner's asked daily for updates and Alan was always too busy to send a photo or a video of the baby. He would promise an update and it would never come. It turns out the dog had passed and Alan continued to lie and tell the owner's he was doing great.

DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS. This is not the first time dogs have died in his care due to heat exhaustion/dehydration. He refuses to show where the dogs are boarded, which is likely outside. Do not entrust your loved ones in his care.

He is not professional; he is negligent and does not appear to have basic knowledge regarding the care of dogs.

Beware of Alan Brown and his immoral and cowardly actions.

ZERO STARS! SHUT THIS PLACE DOWN!! This man is negligent, at the very least, and a deceitful LIAR about what he is doing with the precious lives in his “care! ” He killed my friend’s dog through negligence within 48 hours of taking that poor little soul in. He then NEVER TOLD HER, and straight up LIED to her about what was going on with her precious baby. He made it such that an autopsy cannot be performed and tried to have her dog cremated behind her back! THIS BUSINESS NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN ASAP! Save your pets, NEVER COME HERE!! #justice4Brooklyn More...

MY DOG DIED WITH ALAN BROWN!

I boarded my beautiful German Shepherd dog Booster with Alan last summer, and he died on Aug. 2 at Alan's house. Alan admitted to leaving him outside too long during the afternoon. Then he put him in the kennel inside his home most of the evening during a storm. Alan said that he noticed Booster was panting heavily and pacing most of the evening. He said that he didn't think he ever cooled off. When I asked how much water he had to drink, Alan replied, "I don't know. I don't monitor that."

He left him outside too long when the heat index was 106 degrees. He noticed distress signals from Booster, but failed to act. When he found him dead in his kennel at 7 am, he left him there all day to rot, and then took him to Creekside Vet Clinic and put him in the freezer around 4 pm without ever talking to me or a vet.

He was boarding the dogs inside his home within the city of Arlington illegally. He had a total of 6 dogs plus 4 of his own at the time Booster died.

My family is still devastated from this loss. We loved Booster like another child and not a day goes by that we don't miss him. He was a healthy year and a half old dog when we left him, and now all we have left is a paw print.

I recommend keeping your dogs far away from Alan Brown and K-9 Direction!

I highly recommend Alan Brown's dog training classes. It made such a difference in our dog's life and ours. We adopted our dog as an adult and he was untrained in all aspects. After attending Alan's unlimited training classes, our dog is a new dog. He is obedient, he no longer chews or digs, he listens, he is very enjoyable to walk and he is a joy to have around. Our friends and family noticed the significant changes in our dog as well. Thank you Alan for sharing your expertise! It is invaluable!! More...
