"Enrich your relationship with your canine friend by learning how to create a happy and healthy bond."
-Colleen Simmons, owner/trainer
At HAPPY K-NINE DOG TRAINING we believe that a confident dog paired with good leadership and consistency will create the bond needed for a happy and healthy relationship with your dog. Colleen will evaluate each case individually, and work with dog and owner to create the best training program that is specific to you and your dog's needs.
With over 15 years' experience working with many of the best-balanced dog trainers in the area, Colleen has now dedicated her entire focus on dog training. She started HAPPY K-NINE DOG TRAINING 5 years ago and now dedicates all of her time to showing dog owners how to have a confident, well-mannered dog, and a healthy relationship for a long happy life together.
