Client Testimonials
Ken ensured that he observed and understood how each dog was responding to the training and what each handler was doing right/wrong. He was very generous in sharing and never cut short the training/advice just because time was up. He would also share his less-than-perfect experience with his own dogs to let us know that training takes time and effort. A very down-to-earth and humble trainer, who uses a good balance of positive reinforcement and disciplinary approach. And you know he’s doing it right when all his dogs show him affection and respect, not fear.Sheryl, attended Obedience Class with Sundae
As first-time dog owners, we really didn’t know how to handle Amber although she is already a calm dog. With the effective and patient training from Ken to Amber (and us), we have a better bond with Amber and we are so happy of her becoming a confident and happy dog (never thought she can ‘Sit’ on cue). Also was very impressed to see how Ken trains active dogs to follow commands!
Winnie, attended Obedience Class with Amber
Each lesson was a fun and memorable one. The best parts are that they shared a lot of experiences, listened to how I did my training during the week and corrected/adjusted the steps every week.

We are proud of what Brownie has achieved so far. We only have had him for 5 months and he’s now a different (better-mannered) dog from the day we got him. It’s still work in progress but we are hopeful.
