Training to Give Your Dog a Better Life.

Our dog is the most stubborn & we were in need of help. So pleased we found Isaiah and Next-Step K9! We now have a dog that understands commands and... read more is less reactive around strangers. We are thankful to have her be able to join us outdoors and not worry that she will be a menace

Our Bully was a year and a half with no obedience training when we started with Next-Step k9. Our dog wasn’t living his life to his potential and taking him... read more to go do things was very stressful due to his lack of training. Now we take our bully off leash EVERYWHERE and are always complemented on his good behavior. Isaiah made training fun and it was a great bonding experience for our family and our dog! Next Step K9 is the real deal. If you are on the fence about doing something like this you absolutely will NOT regret this. Best choice we made this year!

I did the 12-week program my dog Roscoe. Now, this dog was a rescue, and I had issues walking my dog on a leash, as he was pulling me everywhere,... read more barking at other dogs, and even lunging at cars! One day, on my regular walk, I ran into Isaiah, my trainer, walking two dogs side by side, no leash!! I said, how can I get ONE dog to be like yours?? Then he gave me his card. Isaiah, is one of the most knowledgable trainers I know in the area. He is patient, works with you, and teaches you how to just do commands, but understanding dog behaviors so you know how to apply them! I could see a small difference at 1-week, and by week 8, he comes when called, knows his time out area, walks off leash, and knows most basic commands! I am prepping to get my dog certified as a service dog, and he's already accomplished over 60% of the requirements needed! If you want your dog trained, give Next-Step K9 a chance, you will not be disappointed! Thanks Isaiah!!

My dog pulled on the leash and was a huge jumper. Now she’s easy to walk and is so much more obedient! I got updated on her progress every other... read more day with pictures and videos! Thank you Isaiah!

Nothing but great things to say about Isaiah and Next-Step K9 Dog Training. We have a 1.5-year-old Olde English Bulldog Manny who previously didn't know his size and was your... read more typical stubborn bulldog who never wanted to listen. Prior to Isaiah Manny knew basic commands like sit and come but was too stubborn to listen to them which is when we decided he needed further training. He is a STRONG pup so walking on a leash was a nightmare. We were nervous to leave him for an extended period of time but after messaging back and forth on Facebook we scheduled a call to talk through all our questions and decided the 3-4 week board and train was right for us. It was hard to let him go but was the BEST investment and we felt extremely comfortable the whole time. You can tell how much Isaiah cares about the pups he takes in to work with. Isaiah regularly posted pictures of our boy on both Instagram and Facebook which was so fun to see his progress. Manny has been home for about a week and his change in behavior and obedience is CRAZY. All of that is attributed to Isaiah and his extensive knowledge. Manny now walks on a loose leash, is comfortable with his prong collar and e-collar, fully understands all of his commands, no longer jumps on guests upon entry and has a greater sense of space. Upon pickup of Manny we ran through some training (more training for us owners lol). Isaiah helped us learn how to correct his behavior if he makes a mistake. Educated us on the e-collar, how and when to use it and set us up for success going home. I would recommend Isaiah to anyone, in fact we are looking to have him work with our other dog as well!.

Isaiah helped me with my two shepherds! His technique is exactly what I needed to get them trained and myself. My two are doing great, still using the tools he... read more gave me to keep them in check. Highly recommend Isaiah for training!
