Let me start off by saying we initially reached out to got your back K9 for our 4 month old Giant schnauzer for basic obedience classes. After talking to George and Ben on numerous occasions we decided to go with the board and train. They were very attentive to our concerns and what we were looking to get out of our training for Axel. When Axel came back after 2 weeks of working with Ben he was a completely different dog. I went back to our local veterinarian and they were beyond impressed on the drastic difference in Axel’s behavior. Not only does the team at Got your back K9 teach basic obedience but they also teach your dog social skills that you might not be able to do at home. Axel was socialized with other dogs throughout the whole process with Ben. They truly treat your dog like family and I can’t recommend them enough for your dog training needs!
I started group classes with George with a 5 month old Belgian Malinois x Dutch Shepherd rescue who was completely unsocialized and living with a pack of aggressive dogs for the first 4 months of her life. She was extremely skittish, fear reactive, food aggressive, etc. The beginner obedience classes and now advanced obedience classes with Got Your Back K9 have completely changed her behavior and demeanor and given me the tools to know how to properly train and handle a challenging dog. We frequently get compliments on her good behavior while out on walks in our neighborhood. We really appreciate the expertise from George and his team and look forward to continuing training with them.
We highly recommend Got Your Back K9 Life! Our German Shepherd puppy, Remy, recently completed a two-week board and train with Benjamin, and the results far exceeded our expectations. From the moment we met Benjamin, it was clear he’s not only incredibly knowledgeable, but truly passionate about what he does. Benjamin took the time to thoroughly teach our entire family — including our kids — how to properly work with Remy using the commands he’d learned. Remy is now so well-trained and responsive that even my five year old niece can walk him confidently! The level of obedience and control he’s gained in such a short time is nothing short of amazing, and it’s clear Benjamin dedicated a great deal of time and care to his training. The facility itself is very clean, well-maintained, and welcoming. Remy was actually sad to leave, which speaks volumes about the experience he had there. We’re beyond grateful to both Benjamin and George for the incredible work they’ve done. We’re excited to continue working with you and can’t wait to see Remy grow even further with training and scent work in the future. Thank you again Benjamin for everything!
I highly recommend George and Staff at Got Your Back K9 Life! Space was limited at the kennel and George offered a VIP service to get her in by allowing her to be a guest in his private residence! Wow! What a nice thing to offer to help us out! Akina our 6 month old,Belgian Malinois, just completed the 2 week board and train. I was completely in shock the difference in her behavior. She was on point with commands. George explained everything and trained us on pickup. We will be attending evening classes on Tuesday and or Thursdays at 7 pm! Thanks, George and staff!
I couldn’t be happier with my experience at Got Your Back K9 Life! My dog, Ollie, just finished a two-week board and train with George, and the results are incredible. George was friendly, knowledgeable, and so helpful during our individual pick-up session. It was a huge comfort knowing Ollie was in good hands while being trained and cared for. I’m excited to keep up the progress in group classes. Highly recommend Got Your Back K9 Life to anyone looking for professional and trustworthy training!
