Too expensive for the price for 5 “sessions.” I emailed to ask about training to keep your dog from running off if you are in your front yard. We have to keep him leashes always. She said the dog should always be in a secured area.” More...

So the moment I completed the online form and spoke with Shelby over the phone It was PLEASANT! The day that we had the interview with Angie to board and train our Sparkle it was AMAZING! Angie was able to show and example in the interview as well as explain why she did what she did and the reaction from Sparkle was priceless. We boarded our puppy for 14 days. Angie also notified us of the military discount which was another THUMBS up! Once we left that same day we were contacted by email by Angie and was notified that our trainer would be Toni. A day or so later we were then notified that Abby would be our trainer due to something came up for Toni. The contact between email and phone was GREAT! I picked up my Sparkle today and Abby was EXCITED and explained everything she has done with my puppy. Abby also explained to me that protection training would be something we should look into for our puppy later down the road and also mentioned Angel the CEO of company agreed as well. I also had the pleasure of meeting Angel for a brief moment and he even mentioned to keep her busy suggested protection training as well. I also received documents which was Awesome because after reading over it and instructing Sparkle what to do it WAS LIKE MAGIC!!! With that being said my money was well spent and we plan on coming back for FUTURE training classes no matter the cost due to the Sparkle loved it and we loved what she has become in 14 days! More...

Just took my 2year old pit through the basic training with Mallorie. She was great! Made directions very easy to understand and I am so impressed with the improvement of my girl. Mallorie always opened up at the end for any questions and always had strategic answers, even for the most stubborn dogs :) we will be going through the rest of the trainings there, as well! More...

We just graduated from the advanced obedience with trainer Mallori Willis-Rauch and I want everyone to know that we had a great experience. Mallori teaches with skill and humor and every dog in the room likes her. I truly learned so much and will be back for more! More...

We hired K9 University for a private session with our pup, Bella, who has a tendency to jump. We can't recommend them highly enough! Within the first 10 minutes, I could start to see the the effects of some rather simple techniques. Abby, our trainer, thoroughly explained the reasoning behind what she was teaching and the psychology of why it works. We also went through several scenarios in which she tends to jump to get practice with each.Overall, the money was very well spent, and we're very grateful for all of Abby's help! More...

I highly recommend K9 University. My pup Nyx and I have attended and graduated 3 different classes. The trainers we’ve had were great and have helped me with Nyx and with my weaknesses as a handler. They get to know your pups and read them well. Nyx has also attended the board and train program the difference in her before and after we’re amazing. She loves to go to K9 University and gets so excited when we pull into the drive. More...

K9U Obedience Class was just what I needed to get started learning what to do on my end of the leash. Of course, my little Schnauzer learned her part too! The instructor (Abby Holloway) was fabulous! She was encouraging but would correct where I needed to improve. When an illness caused us to miss a class, she took time before class to go over what we missed. The Abby was always willing to answer questions and demonstrate when I was unclear how to proceed. I want to add... K9U has a very nice facility to hold classes either indoors or out. Also, Emily in the front office is tremendously helpful as well. We already signed up for our next class. More...

LISTEN UP. Staff is great. Trainer TONI is OUTSTANDING. No complaints whatsoever about K9U. BUT BE ADVISED: Paying lots of money in taking your dog to a Trainer for THEM to train your dog 100% is a Folly. YOU take what they taught your dog and then YOU build on that training - for-ev-er. Like training a toddler - its a non-stop process as your dog gets older. You get the printed How-To materials, spray bottle and 'gotcha' poke-in-the-neck collar. You're shown how to continue what was started in the 3 week-long daily sessions (yes, I paid for 3 weeks). Sadly, my initial concern in my dog's behavior was not fixed, and she was kicked out of a doggie daycare the first visit back. Ugh. I'm disappointed, obviously, and a lot more broke than before the training. THE POSITIVE SIDE is I walk with my dog at my side, I do not worry about her tripping me when we walk daily. She does Sit and Down and Come, Heel, Leave it, Off beautifully. AND yes, I am following through on her training. This situation is my bad for not investigating more before taking the leap - somehow, I thought K9U could do magic and 'Voila! My dog is now trained'. In hindsight, that's silly - but perhaps the reader thought the same thing. Now YOU know. Do I recommend K9U? ABSOLUTELY. Just realize what is expected on YOUR training your dog after THEIR training.

K9 university has taught us how to better understand and communicate with our pup.

I’ve been training with Mallori at K9U for a year. My experience has been amazing. On our first day my puppy literally pooped in my car on the way there. Now he’s working off lead, performing commands, rocking the service dog life. Props to Mallori for not giving up on us. More...

I could not believe how much our Harley had grown during our time in basic obedience. Our instructor Abby was hands down AMAZING! ! I couldn't have asked for a better trainer for our first time. She made sure to not only focus on the class as a whole but the families individually. We were having challenges with Harley's energy level in class, and because she took the time to give us an individual suggestion, Harley's capacity to focus increased so much! We really appreciated the approach K9 has to offer and can't wait to be back for the intermediate session More...

Abby taught our Basic Obedience class the past 6 weeks and it such a great experience! My shih tzu is often weary of other people and dogs, but she seemed to have fun and really listen throughout the class. I had no idea how informative and helpful this would be in regard to helping me understand the proper way to communicate with my dog and learning what action to take to correct her behavior. Our class was primarily larger dogs, but I would recommend K9 University classes for dogs of all sizes. We hope to take another class in the future! More...

Recently took my new puppy through a years worth of training with them and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the trainers and their expertise, patience and understanding of all situations. Also I love a business where you can show up and talk with the owners and realize they are actually a part of the day to day business and take an interest in each and every dog that is trained in there facility. Hands down would recommend them to all my friends and family and will take all my future dogs to them. Thank you K-9 University!!!!! More...

I have 2 dogs currently enrolled in Mallori’s class. Our Max finished one course tonight. I am so happy I found these amazing people, and the incredible Mallori to help us through some really difficult moments with a big, aggressive dog. She’s also been wonderful with our energetic 10 month old pup! I have high prey, high drive dogs that could be dangerous without the proper training. Not only does Mallori and the team train our dogs, they and she train us- so we are better and responsible dog owners! So blessed they are in our lives! Whether you have a stubborn dachshund, or a Dutch Shepherd/Belgium Malinois, they work with you for the benefit of YOU and your dog! Highly recommend!! More...

We just completed basic obedience with Kim as our instructor. I was amazed at how this process worked. Our English Mastiff, Sydney, was a crazy mess to say the least! ! She was a wild child that no one wanted to be around, nor would we let her! She would jump all over people climb on the furniture with them and basically embarrass us to no end. So we took her to class wondering if she could be trained. Only to find out, we needed to be trained! She has shocked both myself and my husband. We always knew she was a sweet awesome girl but just needed the education ourselves to bring it out of her!! Kim was so kind and patient week after week. Thank you Kim and K9University!! More...

We have had fantastic experiences at K9University. I love that my dog has the social experience of a group setting, but the trainers really tailor the guidance for each dog based on their personality & their responses.
It’s very personalized.
The fees are very reasonable for the caliber of training & personal attention. Cassie was always available for 15 minute one on one “check ins” for additional support. We had access to some of their training areas on our own time & the trainers check in regularly by email to offer additional support.
Cassie was really great with us. She never judged or condemned me for being a crazy over protective dog Mom, but provided guidance that helped me to better communicate expectations to my dog.
I’ve always shared a strong bond with my dog and she was fairly well behaved. Using the skills we learned, however, I noticed we have a stronger bond & her confidence is much stronger, which has lessened her anxiety. She seems less hyper & while still a bit of a Velcro dog, she no longer cries or barks every single time I leave a room. We are both looking forward to continuing classes at K9U. I wish I’d made time to take her to class sooner.

We started with a year old catahoula that had so much energy. He jumped on everyone, refused to come when called, pulled constantly on the leash, and was very stubborn.
He was running off constantly. He also became very aggressive towards other dogs making the dog park no longer an option to let out his energy. He was very hard to manage and I was very close to giving up & trying to find him a new home.
First we boarded him for 10 days and let them train him & we could tell a major difference (they recommend longer which is why he wasn’t completely trained after this). So we decided to do the obedience classes, they were more affordable for us, and I really can’t praise them enough for how great it was. Mallori was awesome and taught me and my husband so much. And we’ve only completed the basic obedience class, can not wait to move forward and watch our pup progress!! It’s amazing the difference it makes once you are taught how to effectively teach your dog. I’m SO happy we found them!! If you’re on the fence about bringing your dog here, do it. You won’t regret it!!

What do you love most about your job?
Dogs are incredibly smart creatures, and we find it highly stimulating working with them every day. The fact that they react so positive to our methods is energizing.
What inspired you to start your own business?
There was a need in Oklahoma for solid no nonsense dog training. We find that our positive methods are still the best solution, as they are effective and protected by the US Patent office.
Why should our clients choose you?
We succeed because we don't have a "one-size shoe" approach. Others use only a single approach, where our Patented method allows us to use any approach the dog positively responds to.
