Drew is an AMAZING trainer and I would recommend the K9 Expert to anyone who is looking to train their dog and/or dogs to behave and/or get along. My fiancé and I wanted to move in together but with his overly aggressive German shepherd, River, and my overly excited Cavachon, Bella, they were constantly triggering the worst behavior in each other! Upon meeting us for the first time, he had River sitting down without barking or lunging at Bella as she was quietly sitting next to them on the couch - in just 30 minutes! Their bootcamp program is the real deal and if you put in the work and follow the guidelines, you will be absolutely amazed with the results! Now River is in love with Bella! He’s not her type, but she tolerates him. 😂 5 star rating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ More...

I was super new to training, specifically for extreme separation anxiety as my prior dogs didn't require it. I was hesitant, overwhelmed, and didn't know where to begin. A friend recommended The K9 Expert as she had success with her anxious dog through this program. Our dog, Nola has gained confidence, structure, and obedience thanks to Drew and Andrea. We look forward to group sessions as well, as they aid in Nola's socialization. 😀 🐕 More...

I can’t say enough about Drew! He did an excellent job training our dog. He was wonderful with my 4 year old and involved him in the training. Our dog listens just as much to our son as he does to us. If you are looking for a trainer go no further you have found him! More...

Drew trained my dog and has been more obedient and happier ever since he's come into the picture. He just has a gift with dogs and know every tendency and corrects it if it is wrong. Thank you Drew.

Drew is an amazing trainer! We did the puppy training package and will continue doing classes and group classes the results are amazing. I'm extremely satisfied with the outcome of our dog. He is off leash at only 7 months, listens to all of his commands without hesitation. I can take him anywhere without worrying if he's going to jump on someone, chew up a toy, steal a bite to eat off of a table or someone's plate or bite and growl at anyone. We started our training at the earliest we possibly could and will continue to meet at group or add a class here and there to stay consistent. I can call or message Drew anytime with any questions or concerns I have had or may have in the future and he's quick to respond and guide me through whatever the situation may be . I highly recommend The K9 Expert whether it's to start training in the beginning with the puppy training package, to correct any behavior issues or aggression problems or to train your dog to become a therapy dog. He truly does it all. Thank you More...

Drew did an amazing job with my 3 year old chihuahua Lola! She was super aggressive and loud in public, we couldn’t even walk past people or talk to anyone in public without her making a scene! Now she doesn’t even acknowledge people talking to her as we pass, and listens very well off leash! Using the commands Drew taught me to use with her has made a big difference. I never thought that it would be impossible to take her in public and not hear a single peep! Following the techniques Drew provides us with we seen results almost immediately! Couldn’t be happier, thank you Drew! More...

I cannot say enough good things about the k9 expert! We researched tons of training companies around and this place is the best hands down. Drew was accommodating and knowledgeable and could make the trainings happen even with my complicated work schedule. He is phenomenal and has a passion for what he does. I am grateful for the training they provided my American Bully puppy. More...

Drew is an amazing trainer! My German Shepherd was not socialized and aggressive when I called The k9 Expert. The transformation in my dog’s behavior was noticeable from the very first lesson, and now I have a well behaved, off leash trained dog that I can take anywhere in public. We currently are following up the in home lessons with Drew’s ongoing group classes which allow us to reinforce everything we have learned. I am so impressed with my dog’s progress and I highly recommend The k9 Expert! More...

The k9 expert has been super helpful with my Frenchie! I love the diversity with the training. We do in home training, outside and go to stores, so Sonny is worked in different environments! Sonny is now off leash trained and I couldn’t be more pleased! Sonny also attends the group training classes offered so he is always continuing his training! I have seen Andrew work with dogs that have aggression, anxiety, and even puppies. I recommend The k9 expert to any dog owner! More...

We have been working with Drew for 4 weeks now! Unbelievable the transformation in our Molly! She went from pulling me down when I tried to walk her to walking my neighborhood with just a 15ft leash and her not leaving my side. Drew is giving us the tools we just need to keep up the work and she is going to be so enjoyable to have in the family. Drew I will continue to spread the word about you! Everyone with a dog can benefit from having you spend a little time with their dog♥️ Thank you! More...

We adopted our golden retriever Zoey about a year ago. It took a long time for Grizzly to adapt to the lifestyle change of not being the “only child. ” Thank you to the K9 Expert for teaching us how to make the household comfortable with them together. Before using your services Grizzly bit Zoey a couple of times. Now they do everything together, including snuggling. More...

We highly recommend Andrew at The K9 Expert! We adopted an 11-year-old male Chihuahua named Grumpa. He only took to me. Nobody could look at me, come near me, talk to me or even sit next to me or he would bark aggressively charge and attack and bite!!!!! He was extremely aggressive with everyone! We had to keep him separated in another room which we didn’t want to do. I was at my wits end I called the foster mom and arranged to have Grumpa taken back to the foster home. A friend of mine recommended Andrew The K9 Expert.... Andrew came to our home for a free evaluation… And boy does he know his stuff! We scheduled a training session immediately. After the first session Grumpa was a different dog!!!! Each session we address different issues. As well as going over things from the past class it was a pleasure. Not only is the aggression gone he addressed other behaviors to make it a pleasure to have a dog. We followed through with Andrews recommendations and homework... The aggressive behavior has stopped and he is now a happy member of our family. Thank you Andrew! Grumpa says THANK YOU too!!!! More...

We lost two months of socialization with our lab puppy due to mandatory crate rest after hip dysplasia surgery at 6 months of age. Drew helped us through private lessons with our lab pup so she felt more at ease with basic commands and social situations, especially the heel command, so she’s not dragging us on walks anymore. Drew is also amazing with training the owners. :) His patience, support and knowledge has been wonderful. So much so, that I’ve signed up with Drew to help train my lab to be a therapy dog. We are in therapy training now, and I’m amazed at how well my lab is progressing. A well trained dog is a happy one and Drew is testimony to that. Highly recommend the K9 Expert! More...

Drew was a fantastic trainer and as patient with me as he was with my pup. I was very nervous about an e-collar and he made it approachable and less intimidating. Jameson was already a pleasure but we can take him out to more places without him barking at other dogs, he is more confident and truly such a joy to be around. I even had people say "wow your dog is so well trained" something we never heard before. I would recommend to anyone. More...

BEST TRAINING EVER!!!! Our beloved pit/lab mix is smart and sweet but once he hit adolescence he got an attitude! Haha we have had the dog since 4 months old and he went thru some basic training with a “so so”trainer and he learned his basics but I was never really impressed. Now he’s about to turn two and he needs tough love and Drew brought that to the table! He explained everything so clearly to us! He put the dog into situations where he knew he would react and therefore we could immediately correct him! It worked like a dream! Drew has all the skills and knowledge to properly train dogs (and their owners!) I recommend him highly!!! Our dog has changed for the better and is a great listener! We haven’t finished our sessions yet but I’m confident he will graduate with honors One of the other big plus is that his assistant Danielle is wonderful!! She is so attentive and responds very quickly to any text I send or question I have. They make a great team!!! More...

Booking The K9 Expert is the best thing that you will do to help your pup! Prior to training, my Chihuahua became extremely aggressive when I attempted to put her collar on. We're talking blood and near stitches on my hands with her biting at that point! After just one session, I saw drastic improvement in my pup. The results WILL HAPPEN if you follow the advice of Drew! He walks you through the psychology of the training, and addresses any concerns you might have regarding training. 100% recommend services from The K9 Expert!! ???? More...

Andrew did amazing work with our rescued American Bully, Odin. He didn't have a lick of sense and very little confidence. I saw a difference after just one session . I think I even told him that I didn't know what he whispered in his ear, but thank you!! I now have a well rounded, well mannered, for the most part, Lol. (He is a bully and gets extremely excited) family pet. Andrew did a great job at not only training him, but me as well and gave us lots of tools and insight to work with. Highly recommended!! More...
