I cannot put into words how thankful I am for Aaron helping me with my puppy. Not only has he really helped me train my puppy, but he has also taught me so much about him, more specifically his breed and why he behaves the way he does. If you are looking for someone to train your dog, I highly recommend Aaron!

My dogs, Cow and Mocha, have been back home with me for a little over a week and I am still shocked at how amazing their behavior is. I will be the first to admit that my relationship with my dogs was not the healthiest. They ran the household and had began resource guarding me to the extent that we could not enjoy a neighborhood stroll, dinner with extended family members, and Amazon drop offs were hellish. I was getting concerned that the resource guarding would lead to an altercation with another dog or an attack on a person/child. I reached out to Aaron and he was very thorough in explaining his training methods and provided us with the assurance that our dogs could be trained to become dogs of the world! Each of my dogs had unique needs and at their core they both needed socialization, obedience training, and potty training. Cow needed to work on his confidence and was super scared of everything. Mocha was adopted by us a week before going to boarding school and she is an energy filled cooky puppy that needed reigning in. Aaron worked with each of my pups and provided them the time, training, and lessons they would need to succeed. Mocha was ready to learn from day one but Cow was a whole other situation. It took him weeks to come out of his shell and overcome his fear. and Aaron did not give up. Some of the specific things that convinced me to do training with Aaron was his training philosophy, dedication to quality training regardless of the time it took my dogs to learn, knowledge of obedience, willingness to answer questions, and his level of professionalism. During the training he remained in constance communication with me and this eased my anxiety in having my pups being away. He also made the transition back home seamless and equipped us with the knowledge we needed to succeed with training at home. We have remained in communication since my pups returned and he always answers our questions. Truly a top notch experience!

I don’t even know where to begin. Aaron (the owner) and Shane (our trainer) treated our pup with such care. Before we even decided on this company Aaron spent almost an hour on the phone with me explaining their process and how they handle the dogs. He listened to our fears (our pup’s personality changing, him forgetting us, him being gone too long, etc) and addressed everything with compassion and honesty. Shane took the time to get to know our dog, took pictures, sent updates and by the time we did our family training sessions you could totally tell how much our dog grew to love and respect him! He was honest about the things we needed to change and forthright about what we needed to do moving forward. Separately, they knew how hard it was for us to make the decision not to bring Cash home for Christmas, so they set up a photoshoot and sent the cutest pictures! Our family would recommend In Line K9 to anyone and everyone looking for a company built on integrity and care!

I highly recommend In-Line K9! My one-year-old German shepherd/husky mix, Dio, was being aggressive towards people and other dogs. Taking him out for walks was a nightmare, and I was very stressed about leaving him alone while at work. I signed up for In-Line K9’s advanced board and train program, and Shane and Aaron got started right away with training Dio. The program has been super thorough! Shane spent a lot of time training Dio, and educated me on how to build Dio’s confidence and obedience. I’m comfortable taking Dio with me anywhere now, and Shane made sure all my concerns were addressed. Dio even has off-leash training now, so In-Line K9 definitely exceeded my expectations... I couldn't be happier!

There are no words for what Aaron has done for me and my family. We signed up for the advance board and train and It was life changing. Our golden retriever was becoming difficult for us and even jumping on kids and knocking them over, but Aaron came to our rescue. The knowledge Aaron has on all breeds and training tactics is unmatched . Not only do I feel extremely comfortable taking her to crowded public places, but at home it’s like a dream. Highly recommend using Aaron’s programs for all ages and breeds! Thank you again Aaron life changing.
