Testimonials

I got the package with 3-sessions of private training (with one 1-2 hour consultation on top of that) and my trainer was Alex.

I have a 3.5 year old Rottweiler female that had very minor leash reactivity that suddenly got significantly worse after her sibling passed away. My usual training with her didn’t seem to help so I wanted some help to improve her quicker.

Pros of Alex/my trainer:
-She specializes in Rottweilers, Pitbulls & reactivity/aggression
-Sessions feel like going to both a dog trainer & canine behavior analyst/expert
-Has a Rottweiler that we were able to do training with, also has Pitbull but we did not use him
-She has SO much helpful knowledge for training, health, breed specific needs and anything else you can think of for your dog
-She is friendly, flexible and easy to work with
-Her training sessions were creative & very helpful

Pros of K9 as a company:
-Package came with a free month of “LunaDog AI” which has tons of video training courses to watch & an AI to ask questions about your dog. This was made by the trainers. This helped me a lot on top of the hands on training. I highly recommend watching everything on here!

Tip: If you don’t get an email response, respond via text.

Outcome: After 3 sessions I feel like I understand my dog completely and have full confidence in my ability to continue her training (reactivity training takes time). She improved significantly after only a couple of weeks and I am able to train her now in any setting without worry/stress.

Thank you!!

Rob was professional, flexible, and had many resources he was happy to share! Thank you for your time!

Rob was fantastic with our dogs! We completed a 7-lesson package with him and have seen great progress with our stubborn old lady, Stella. He’s patient, skilled, and very flexible with scheduling which we really appreciated. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a quality dog trainer.

If you have found yourself looking for an AMAZING dog trainer, you have truly come to the best place. Take a deep breath, because it WILL be okay.

I reached out to Koru thinking I would have to break my heart and rehome my Dutch shepherd/Malinois mix. He was aggressive toward our small dog, our toddler, and my husband. He had bit me several times, and it was to the point where we were living in two separate spaces in our house.

I came to Koru as a last resort thinking this was the end and I would give up being a dog mom forever. THANK THE UNIVERSE for Koru matching my family up with Natalie and Lee Lane. Literally stop reading this review, call Koru and ask to get on Natalie and Lane’s schedule NOW. You can read the rest after.

We did the hybrid board and train, then home training sessions. From the moment I spoke with Natalie to the last session I knew my pup was in great hands. She dealt with my many questions, and trust me, I had them! She has amazing communication. Her and Lee pour their hearts into each dog that comes into their home. Even though Jas has graduated, they STILL answer any questions I have. I didn’t have a great relationship with Jasper. I loved him, but it was strained. After working with Natalie and Lane, my relationship with my dog is SO MUCH BETTER. We now have roles and balance that we can enjoy our relationship and be positive and not stressed out. My son can kiss Jasper, and they snuggle together! We are still working on our tiny queen bee attitude, but Jasper is a perfect gentleman.

One thing I also want to say is that yes, they are AMAZING trainers, SOLID people, and just the best people you want in life. However, you need to do the work. I watched the videos they sent, I asked questions, I emailed, I followed through. You and your pup deserve this balance and peace that I promise you is at the end of this tunnel. I get stopped when out and about with Jasper saying he is the best behaved dog. He is ONE! His recall is amazing, he’s attitude is perfect. I cannot say this enough, Natalie and Lee Lane, my family is forever grateful for your time with Jasper. Thank you, thank you, thank you! #LanesTakeOver

Joey Zahn at Koru K9 worked a miracle with my fearful, resource-guarding, biting little rescue. We were afraid that we might need to euthanize this dog because he was always in attack mode and was even drawing blood with his bites!

Joey took our dog into his 6 week board’n’train program and transformed him into a chill, confident and happy pup.

With gentle patience, and clear, consistent expectations our dog learned how all good things would come when he trusted Joey. They became pals and mastered basic obedience skills together.

Best of all, with Joey’s “hybrid” board and train program, he spent time teaching me, too! I learned to use his training methods that were so successful. Last night our dog was perfectly content to munch on his chew while I had 9 people at my dinner table. It’s a miracle!
