Almost Heaven K9 (Becca) is an amazing wonderful lady to in trust your dogs too!! She goes above and beyond with training and not only that but she truly cares for each and every pet. You have to be willing to also put in the work and follow her teaching/rules once you get home. But it is so worth it to have a calm relaxing world to live your dog with! Stop letting them control you and take back control!! It is so much better when you live this life!! Being able to eat food on the couch without it being a fight. Being able to take a calm relaxing walk, without you being the one getting walked. Having a dog who respects you not runs over you is amazing!! Now I’ve realized how wrong it is to live like that! It isn’t you being mean it’s you taking back the control and showing them how to live a happy healthy balanced life!! Becca is an amazing fierce strong leader and a great person to work with!!! She always is ready to help and responds to any questions I have! She is more of a friend than a trainer. She does an outstanding job and I can’t thank her and her family enough for taking in Kylo and getting him into shape!!! Now it’s our turns to keep up the good work and practice to make it a healthy balanced life!! Thank you so much Becca - Almost Heaven K9!!!! More...

Becca puts out amazing content and is amazing what she does. Any dog would be lucky to be trained by her. She gives 110 percent with every dog.

When I first got my boy Lincoln I was so excited to have a little buddy to take on all my adventures. I soon realized that I had no way to communicate with him and every outing was disastrous. So many times our trips ended with me in tears and him terrorizing people, dogs, or anything in his view. I found Becca and her business Almost Heaven K9 Training. She chatted with me and empathized with me over all my troubles. She welcomed Lincoln and I into her almost heaven family and changed our lives. I was so hesitant at first due to it being an investment and leaving my buddy with a stranger but I can definitely say it was totally worth it. Every penny. She took care of Lincoln flawlessly and prepared me for our new lives ahead. I left feeling totally confident that I was able to have a peaceful and wonderful life with Lincoln. He learned everything and more that she promised. I can finally take my boy with me places and enjoy life with him by my side. I cannot tell anyone enough how much you should do this program. It will change your life with your sidekick for the better!! So glad I made the choice to do it, I wish I would have found Becca sooner! More...

When we brought Emma home 11 months ago we knew she would be a great part of our family. Then the tiny cute puppy turned into a 70 pound wild one. Emma has always been so sweet but she took charge of our house or was in her crate and couldn’t be around guests. She would only jump and lick people but no one wanted that from a dog the size of a pony. More...

We adopted Har almost 6 months ago from a local shelter. He came with wonderful manners and we felt so lucky we found each other :) Due to his good nature, he spent the first 4 months having freedom around the house and while we were away at work. Until one day... He destroyed 8 boxes of kid puzzles and drawing supplies. Out of nowhere! The next day was just as bad! I was at a loss and sent Becca a message. What changed with him and what do I do!? Becca advised that he spend his alone time during the day in his kennel. I hated the idea of him being confined for over 8 hours during the day but trusted her advice. Har had developed anxiety and needed to keep calm while we were away. Har has thrived since we have been using the kennel during the day...almost 2 months now. He has an overall happier demeanor and has been so much more enjoyable to be around. It has taken our family time to bond with Har. As wonderful as he is, he came with a past...he had to learn that we were only here to love him. He kept love at a distance. Because if that, so did we. The love is happening and has come on so much faster since he has learned to stay relaxed and trust us. Becca is so helpful. We are so glad to have her help us be the best we can for Har! More...

Thank you, Becca! I heard about your program and immediately got our pup on your obedience training waitlist. Our young dog came back home a proper lady, not jumping on us, not barking in the middle of the night and showing obedience on command. The program really works! Game changer! ❤️ More...

Zeke went to AHK9 training program in September. We are happy with the results and we continue to build on them everyday. We love the place command because it allows us the freedom to do chores, cook dinner, or enjoy time together as a couple without Zeke constantly begging for attention or getting into trouble . The place command has also helped Zeke to calm his mind tremendously! He is such a happy, active puppy but he now understands place is time to relax. Becca taught us the importance of practicing this command and it’s been a game changer. We are also very happy with how well Zeke will follow the commands down and heel after going to Becca’s board and train program. Taking Zeke for a walk is so pleasant now. More...

My dog Sam is a 10 pound/1yro rescue mix terrier. When he arrived at my house in September, he had zero boundaries or training; his litter was a surrender to a rescue group. After a few weeks, my stress level was maxing out bc of his marking in the house, going #2 in the house, excessive barking, crazy on a leash and not listening. I was recommended to contact Almost Heaven and Sam entered training at ground zero. After two weeks of Becca’s very hard work, Sam is a true joy to have home. He rests in “place” while I do my thing around the house without him roaming, barking at the window, peeing and chewing. He can walk very controlled on his leash and with small corrections and continued work on our part as owners, he is and will continue to be a well behaved and focused dog. I recommend Almost Heaven absolutely. It’s truly amazing - Becca is a dog whisperer. More...

Before sending our 2 dogs to AHK9, I felt overwhelmed with them every. single. day. and I never felt I was truly in control or the leader of my dogs in any situation. My dogs are 75 and 100+ lbs, so it was unacceptable for them to be out of control! I was always afraid they were going to hurt someone when they jumped up to say hi, they were always tearing up my furniture, and one of my dogs had some aggression related to food and following commands and I was afraid HE was going to hurt ME! Sending our dogs to Becca was the best decision we have ever made. She taught us a way to communicate with them so that they can understand what we expect of them in any situation. She taught them to have a calm demeanor at baseline, and taught us how to continue honing those skills in the future. Her training provides a way for us to tell our dogs that we are the leader, we make all decisions, and they should trust us and feel safe with us. She has transformed our dogs and therefore our home and our lives and we are so thankful. I recommend AHK9 100% to anyone with a dog. Maybe anyone with any kind of pet! I think she could train my cat! lol. As owners, we dont realize how much we sacrifice for our pets and how much inappropriate behavior we allow because "dogs bark" or "dogs jump" or "that's what dogs do". It doesnt have to be that way! You can have a well-behaved dog who looks to you for guidance in all settings. This training will provide that. We are so thankful to have found AHK9 and Becca. More...

I’ve been wanting to write a review for Becca’s Almost heaven canine training for several weeks but I found it hard to put into words how much her training has changed Brady. And honestly our whole life. It was getting to the point were we didn’t know what to do besides giving him a new home. The thought of that broke my heart because he is such a sweet, loving dog who likes to please but had his “issues.” He would pace around and couldn’t relax at home in the evenings when I was there thus sending me up to my room so he wouldn’t make everyone crazy. The kids couldn’t eat around him for fear he would grab their food. We would hear him in the kitchen and think “what’s he got now.” He loved getting food off the counter and eating tissues out of the trash. And that doesn’t even count the pulling while walking or barking when people or cars went by. He is truly a new well behaved dog. Now he’s not perfect by any means but I can walk him with no pulling, let him be outside without him barking at everyone, hang out in the living room in the evenings and the kids are able to eat in peace. I can’t say enough good things about her training. And she is still there to answer any questions we have. Her program works!! More...

Before I knew Becca trained dogs, and met her dog Max and was so impressed with his manners and how well he listened to Becca. I knew that’s what we needed for our 1 year only retriever mix, Kyle. We had a few in home lessons in the fall, which helped us communicate better with Kyle, and teach him how we wanted him to behave around the house and toward others. Last month, he had a 1 week board and train with Becca while we were on vacation. He has been wonderful! Becca is so great with all the dogs, and so helpful in teaching the owners how to continue the training process at home. I cannot recommend her enough! More...

When I took Goldie for her training she was very clingy, anxious, and could not sit still. After taking her for her training she is able to relax and just enjoy her life. We NEVER would have been able to take her anywhere with us, but now she goes everywhere. I can’t thank Becca enough for everything that she has done.

Winnie, our 7-month old Pembroke Welsh Corgi, greatly benefited from her week with Becca. Before training, Winnie would whine in her crate and refuse to walk in and ALWAYS rush out! Now she NEVER even attempts without being told to do so. Winnie would greet our friends, family, and strangers by jumping up on them and running directly to them. Now she remains calm and only approaches others when directly told to and when she does greet them there is NO jumping Winnie is now respectful and craves our leadership! Our sweet girl’s personality has always been so fun and loving, but now it’s heightened and that’s thanks to Almost Heaven K9 training! Becca keeps you updated every step of the way and was super supportive with my questions/ concerns! I very much recommend this for any dog at any age!!! More...

I am simply amazed at what she does with each dog. As she is walking the dogs, they are completely under control at all times. It is truly unreal. If you haven’t watched her videos, you are missing out. Such transformations with each dog. I have a 15 week old Sheltie, and I can’t wait to see what she can do with Maisy!!

My family picked up our 11 month old sheepadoodle tonight from “boot camp”. She had an intense few days with Becca and it shows! Clover had always been an anxious dog who paced around trying to see/find our kids. She panted constantly and never settled down unless she was in her crate. Tonight after our going home lesson she came home and was put in place on her new cot. It was a miracle! She laid down and hung out just watching us make a snack and clean the kitchen. This had never happened. It’s only been a few hours since her training but I’m already a happier mom. I can’t wait to see how our lifestyle changes for the better after introducing Clover to Becca and her communication tools. More...

Koa is also so calm at home now. Dogs are a lot of work, and training one is not easy. Seeking out the help of a professional who does this for a living was the best decision we have made.

I don’t even know where to begin. I was at a COMPLETE loss with my dog. Crying and anxiety ridden every single day. I couldn’t enjoy my dog, because the constant chaos she brought to my household was too much. She’s not my first dog. I’ve had many. I’ve always been able to train my dogs...especially potty training. Not Honey. She broke me. Thankfully a friend of mine referred me to Almost Heaven K9 Training. She had placed her pup with Becca and had amazing results. Becca and her methods SAVED me!!!! Honey is now calm, relaxed and much happier. I feel like for the first time since I got her in November....I can enjoy her. I look forward to having Honey with me, wherever I go. Without fear of Honey getting hurt or getting away from me. Becca has given me the tools to enjoy Honey and have her be apart of my life 100%. Because really....isn’t that why we get our precious pups? To love them and have them be fully integrated into our lives. Thank you Becca, from the bottom of my heart. We love you. More...

I was starting to have major puppy regret with my 6 month old lab. He had become an added stress in an already hectic household of 6! Until I found Becca! She taught him manners, how to follow commands, walk calmly, lay calmly and so much more. More importantly she also taught us humans how to be dog parents. Our lab Remi is completely changed and I have fallen in love all over again. He respects us, listens to us and is so much happier and calmer. Walks are an absolute pleasure. He is everything I imagined he would be when I first made the decision to bring him home! Becca wants her dogs and parents to have an amazing experience and never worry. She sends updates (videos, pictures, messages)on their progress so no dog parent ever has to wonder how their fur baby is doing!! Can’t recommend Becca at Almost Heaven K9 training enough! More...

We were excited to bring home our poodle but it became very stressful and annoying as he will jump on the children and every time we wanted to play with him it only lasted a couple minutes because he will jump and bite and go all crazy. We love going on walks and Choco only got to go with us once because he will pull so hard on his leash and it was not enjoyable to take him. Becca is great at working with dogs. Choco showed so much change after only a couple days of the training. We brought him home and finally feels like we can enjoy more our dog. No more jumping on the kids and people, no more biting, and yes more walks and freedom for Choco as he gets to spend more time with our family now because of his good behavior. This training is worth the money! My children just love Choco more now that they can walk him, and play with him. Our house is more peaceful now, and less stressful. More...

Sending our two Weimaraners to train at Almost Heaven K9 has been the best decision that we could have done for our dogs and our household. They are very high energy dogs and were often unruly and hard to manage in any situation where there was unfamiliar stimulus. With a baby on the way we knew something had to be done. Becca was amazing with transforming our dogs into two obedient, respectful and much calmer members of our family... while still being just as lovable and fun as they were before! She was awesome in keeping us updated through the whole process on their progress and we were grateful for frequent pics and videos since we missed them so much. Their transformation in 2 weeks was almost unbelievable! Becca was a gift from God for us and we will forever be grateful for her dedication, love and care that she showed our two beautiful pups! She has given us the foundation and tools to make sure that we can include these two in everything we do ❤️ More...

I’ve been wanting to post a review since the day I brought him home but couldn’t (and still can’t) find to words to describe how thankful I am for Almost Heaven K9 Training. Thanks to Becca my life is forever changed. I was at my breaking point with my dog. Having a 70 pound German Shepherd running your life and house isn’t easy or safe. I wanted to get rid of him and I just couldn’t do it anymore, this training was my last hope. Within a day I saw improvement. I was already certain I had made the right decision by day 2 or 3 and now that my boy is home I am 100% sure this was right. The training never stops though, I know I will have to continue working with him forever so that he can get better and better. But she set a structure that I just couldn’t set by myself. She made my dog understand leadership in a way that I never could before. She showed my dog what it means to be calm (he has NO idea before haha) She completely changed my life and my dogs life and I will never be able to thank her enough. Me and my boy Zeke are happy now. If you are at your last straw with your pup and desperate for a change, you’ve come to the right place. This was worth every penny spent and every second I was missing my boy. If there was an option for 100 stars I would choose that! Haha More...
