Tom was a pleasure to work with. He is knowledgeable, professional and a very patient trainer. He shared lots of tools, techniques, tips and advice to help get our energetic, 56 pound, 1.5 year old dog Bodie on the path to obedience. During each session, we would take notes and be given homework to help reinforce good behavior and ensure we were enabling healthy routines. I greatly appreciate the "in home" training sessions and I would wholeheartedly recommend Tom for any dog. Good guy.

K9Katelynn dog training is simply a great company to hire for your positive reinforced dog training. He helped my wife and I take on the training of two rat terrier puppies. I don’t know what we would have done without the very professional guidance. To make it even more impressive (due to an illness I had to leave my place of work) K9 gave me a refund of all unused lessons. They were under no obligation to do this. K9 did it quickly sending me the money in a cashiers check. A truly professional company.

Tom is a great trainer and it is clear from the first session that he can help your family with dedication on your part. He spent about an hour with us at each session, had us take notes, answered questions and gave us the psychology and understanding behind each lesson. Within two sessions, we saw our dogs be more focused and less aggressive towards each other. We are so thankful for his lessons, and will continue working with our pups to keep them happy, healthy and engaged!

Tom is a very knowledgeable and patient instructor. He gave us valuable and easy to understand commands for our dog, leading us through every lesson with a lot of good information. He recommended that we get a treadmill for our over weight and anxious dog. She uses it everyday and it has made a huge difference. We would highly recommend Tom for dog training.

**PLEASE READ** **BE AWARE** This is a SCAM!!! Before you sign up with this crook look at ALL the BAD reviews about him taking peoples money and scamming them out!!! I am so mad at myself for only looking at the good ones! STAY FAR AWAY from this man!!! Not only is the teaching terrible, his attitude and professionalism is even WORSE!!! We had to bite out tongue a few times. We agreed to an outrageous $1,500 for 5 sessions $300 per session and after 2 we had enough of this horrible man! He FORCED us to prepay because he knows you will cancel and when we cancelled he wont even give us our money back for the unused time!!! Please, I beg you if you are reading this save yourself from getting involved in this mess! Now, I am forced to take legal action!

On December 4 , 2021 he and his partner signed a contract which states the terms on the contract! It also addresses refund policy! From a period of December 4th 2021 to June 8,2022 their never was one complaint against K9katelynn! The last text message we had from them was dated 4/20/2022 was this …Oh great! Im going to look at my calendar and send you some dates to see when is good for you! We never heard from them again until June 8th at 8:44 pm. Via text! At this time he texted us …Stating that he and his partner were not getting what they needed…I asked them to call us tomorrow or next week he said ok! Shortly thereafter we started to get texts (since this is public seen) I won’t show(because of the language and terminology against us) then he texted us again on Friday the 10th asking what we were going to do and resent the the contract to him! His response was Thats all i needed to see! Since you are not an honorable man I will be SURE to write a review for you starting today on every single review site that i saw on your website every single day for the rest of my life. (Along with other language that I won’t share here!) This continued with other language which be better not to be seen here! Unfortunately we had to block his text messages ! He is currently trying to use other platforms to communicate with us with much of the same tone and language unfortunately!

Tom (K-9Katelynn) is an experienced trainer and has a deep understanding of canine behavior. We took notes each of the six training sessions and keep them as a reminder. We continue to practice with Louie (our dog). In the beginning 65 lb. Louie would not walk on a leash. We had to carry him to his first vet visit. Using Tom's techniques, we taught Louie his basic commands. He has gained confidence and has become accustomed to people in social situations. We are very happy we asked for help and received it!! Thank you K-9Katelynn!

My dog was 3 months old when we started with him. We learned those basic commands which well keep on enforcing her. This is our 3 rd dog, meaning we’ve had some experiences. Having to said that his advices have helped me here and there, such as potty training, her behaviors in public, restaurant to fit our life style. We appreciate his knowledge.

Our puppy Lucy is a very high-energy rescue that was driving us crazy. She would steal anything paper & rush to the couch to eat it. Socks would be grabbed, taken outside and she would jump around and throw them in the air. Lucy was also very aggressive in her play with my wife and would jump on her & play bite. We watched many YouTube videos on how to train her to behave, but she just wasn't responding. My wife was on the verge of saying we needed to take her back to the shelter until we found k9katelyn. We made an appointment with Tom & he came out to speak with us as well as meet Lucy. We signed the "contract" with him & training started the next week. After purchasing the recommended leather leash & collar (as opposed to our rope-type leash & nylon collar), Tom showed us each step of the way for each command and then had us try it as he watched & corrected any missteps. Each day we trained her was for 20-minutes at a time with Lucy on that week's new command and refreshing the commands from the prior weeks. Yesterday was our last training with Tom & Lucy now Heels, Sits, Downs, Stays, Shakes, Places (move to a specific spot & stay), as well as Off (to get her front paws off counters, tables, and people). My wife is much happier with Lucy & the fear of having to return her to the shelter is gone. We now have a well-behaved puppy that is fun to be with. We plan to continue working with her so we can take her to stores with us and with friends. She still gets quite excited, but is learning to control herself. We had read some uncomplimentary reviews about Tom, and while he does instruct you to take notes (I used my tablet and Bluetooth keyboard), I did find I retained the information better than him just giving us a sheet of instructions to read (how many people read their owner's manuals). He does speak faster than we're used to and my wife had some issues with that, but I would just relay the instructions to her and we were fine. Some reviews said he was rude, but we didn't experience that at all. He was polite & calmly answered any and all questions we posed to him. His training is very structured so be mentally prepared to train when he arrives. Our experience was a very positive one, well worth the cost, and we would recommend him to anyone wanting a well behaved dog.

We wanted our dog trained and us then taught how to continue. Tom is a nice guy, but poor communicator. It was very difficult to understand what he was saying. We paid $1950, for 6 30-45 minute sessions. This was not made clear when we hired him. 1st session was talking only, then each session after was about 15 minutes of talking, and 15 minutes of us doing what we were instructed. Tom did very little hands on training, it was all up to us. This is not what we thought we were paying for.

Little surprised on this review! For the last four visits she told me that pugsly was doing great! Equally their was 8 visits and not 6! Along with this all training was hands on! She was correct on describing what was done in the 1st 15-20 minutes of instructions but she left out after that that we always did hands on before handing the leash and dog over to the client! We met at a pet market the last visit and pugsly did well on almost all the commands with distractions except little slow on the sit command! I found both clients to be nice! She followed up well with the commands and took great notes! Thank you! K9katelynn.com

Our dog trainer Tom was in excellent choice to help train our three dogs. We just got a new Doberman puppy in addition to our two French bulldogs which did change their dynamic at home. His expertise in dog training was evident with the continuing growth in our dogs obedience training. He was able to train in the convenience of our home while being very patient with me, my husband and my dogs. I was so glad that he could train all the dogs at the same time making it well worth the cost. I am glad to say we striving to keep up with the training and have happy, well behaved dogs.

Met with Tom on 2/20/21. He was very personable and took the time to find out what our dog needs to be properly trained. He was thorough and had a depth of knowledge in animal training. After meeting with him, we paid a deposit to get started. We are looking forward to working with Tom and having a well behaved dog.

My husband and I had weekly one on one training sessions for overall training and command training for our 2 year old pup. We learned so much and have the tools we need to continue training well beyond the end of our one on one sessions. We even will reconvene once the weather warms up for continued training for pool safety! Instructions were clear and the layout of training was easy to follow. We feel confident that it was well worth it!

It went very well. He gave us alot of help with her issues. She didn't trust men at all and didn't like dogs, but she has become very social with people and small dogs.

About Tom and K9 Katelynn: Our mini golden doodle, Benji, just completed a series of training classes with K9 Katelynn. Tom's approach to training is comprehensive and compassionate, and you may choose from his menu of lessons. Your dog's well being is Tom's #1 concern and if your pup doesn't respond to a command using one method, he'll try another until success is achieved. Tom skillfully trains owners how to properly train their dog. K9 Katelynn is a five star training clinic.
