If you are on the fence, just do it, you will not regret it!!!! I cannot recommend this program highly enough! I was very unsure about shelling out so much and having my dog be away from home, but right from the start Aaron put our fears at ease. Aaron is so helpful and explains things so clearly, never giving up or getting discouraged (with the dog or client).
We had used three other trainers and were close to giving up after our dog nipped a friend. I'm so glad we didn't because it turns out all we needed was a trainer who is willing to invest the time and energy in making sure we know how to engage our dog in the best way to help him be successful at home and in the community. Aaron helped our dog reset. He reviewed the basics our dog knew and taught him how to just be chill (a totally new experience for our pup).
Our dog came home so relaxed, trained, and ready to be part of the family. Now, weeks after the board and train our dog is still doing so much better!! What really makes Aaron worth the investment is his willingness to continue supporting our dog and family. When I noticed an old habit coming back, Aaron was quick to observe, offer corrections and actually teach me how to help my dog all while reassuring me. We are so grateful for Aaron taking on our wild dog and helping him and us have a relaxed and happy home. Aaron and InLine is the best choice we could have made for our dog and our family.

Ari is one of THE most skilled, dedicated and clear trainers I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. She has trained countless challenging dogs whose struggles ranged from severe reactivity to some of the most anxious separation anxiety cases I’ve ever seen. She handled each case with more professionalism than I’ve seen most humans have around each other. With each client I’ve seen her work with, she has been able to go above and beyond to clearly break down why their dogs are behaving as they are and how best to help them. Every dog she has worked with, she ensures they are as comfortable as possible while at the same time, gently guiding them to improvement. Her process is patient, kind and incredibly clear. I have seen countless dogs open up, bubble with confidence, and begin to thrive from her training. Ari is a wonderful human inside and out. She is the best communicator I know with humans and dogs alike. As someone with challenging dogs, she is one of the very few people I trust most with mine. If you’re considering working with her, let this be the nudge-you will not regret it. She will go above and beyond!

Shannen helped me work through my rescue Dobermans leash reactivity back in 2022, and I then called her up again to help me with my new rescue Lab puppy this past year. She is nothing but a joy to work with, and my family always gets excited to see her. My kids call it the "Puppy Professor Time" haha! Very knowledgeable and fun

Kahlil and Kingdom K9 have changed the whole dynamic of our family! No longer does our Shepard-mix Bella run the household, dragging us down the street on walks, and rushing out the door before us. With Kahlil's foundational training, she is growing into the amazing family member we always wanted. Proper socialization during boarding and daycare visits are also helping her anxiety. We are a Kingdom K9 family for life!

Holly was amazing! My two 9 month Cocker Spaniel brothers fought over chewies, (bite me a couple times when I got in the middle), would not stop peeing on my white carpet, went wild over the birds in my complex, (even after puppy 1 and 2 classes.) I sent them to board & train with Holly for 2 months.
When I got them back, they were still outgoing and happy, but more confident, each now goes on the treadmill twice daily for 1/2 hour, does not bark when I vacuum, and on command stays on their own raised dog beds with chewies. When people walk in now, they do not bark or jump on them. Instead, they stay on their beds until I release them. When they were 1 year old, they stayed with Holly another 3 weeks and she walked with them using e-collars. Now I can walk them without their pulling or trying to chase birds. When I take them off leash and let them run, they both come back right away when called. This is just some of what Holly did with them.
She also came to my home 3 or 4 times to train with me and set up my condo so the dogs could fit into my personal lifestyle and work routine. I just turned 75 yrs, and live alone now with 2 well behaved l-1/2 old loving companion cockers. IT WAS WORTH EVERY PENNY. I wanted to get them trained right, and she did. I am very happy with the results and look forwards to the next 15 years, (God willing), with my boys.
p.s. Holly, feel free to give my phone no to anyone who wants to speak to me.

w go on the treadmill, housebroke them, stopped the fighting, got them to stay on the dog beds on command, and set up my condo so they fit into my personal routine and workday. They were still trying to chase birds outside and now that they were a year old she kept them another 3 weeks to work them with e-collars. I sent a time during lunch to enforce the training for a couple of weeks. Now at 1-1/2 yes I can take them together anywhere, shopping, walking and they listen to me and are well behaved, still outgoing and friendly. She gave them more confidence too. I am 75 yrs old, and they are wonderful companions now. I was so lucky to find Holly.
I enjoy helping people better understand their dogs, and specialize in teaching people how to better communicate with their dogs. I tailor my training to meet the goals you have for your dog. Services: * Private Dog Training (in your home or at a park) * Puppy Training (in your home) * Behavior Modification (in your home)
The best part of my job, besides meeting great people and great dogs, is helping people find peace and happiness with their dogs. I've had a few clients that were ready to give up their dogs due to behavioral issues. I'm able to teach them how to better relate to their dogs so they can effectively communicate with them. For me, there is nothing better than helping clients learn how to be great doggy parents!
I felt like I was swallowed up by Corporate America and was nothing more than a number on some paper, no matter how hard I worked. I want to make a direct impact on people who are having trouble with their dogs. I love people and love animals, so why not combine the two!
You might hear some dog trainers say they work with dogs because they do not like people...I am the complete opposite! I love people and love dogs and feel truly honored and blessed to be able to combine the two!
Some dog training can be offered online, but there are times (i.e. Behavioral Modification) where I need to assess your dog in their own environment. For me, the best kind of training is done in person so you can have a more hands on experience.
I wear a mask and use hand sanitizer before and after every client. Some clients prefer to meet in their back yard, so I'm flexible to meet your needs.
