About Us

Our number one goal is to help our clients and dogs live their best lives together. No matter their age, breed, or size -- from chihuahuas to Great Danes. Living with an out-of-control dog isn’t fun for anyone. Getting pulled around by your dog on leash, zero recall, reactivity, the list goes on. But we’re here to help!

Here at Upland Pine K9 we recognize every dog and owner is different, so we tailor your dog’s training to get the best results! We use a variety of training tools and methods including (but not limited to) positive reinforcement, play, slip leads, prong collars, and remote collars.

 

We believe no dog is “bad”, they just don’t know what’s expected. UPK9 Training will help you not just set expectations, but also teach you how how to build you and your dog’s confidence and relationship. Do you dream of taking your dog off leash at the beach, walking them through the pet store, or bringing your dog to brunch? We can make those dreams come true!
