About KayNine Training
Every dog is unique and it’s important to tailor the training to suit each dog’s own personality, which is why I train on a one to one basis using science based, force free, positive reinforcement methods only.
Our puppy classes are on a one trainer to two puppies ratio, this gives your puppy the best start to their training and sets them up for success!
I believe in building bonds between dogs and their humans which encourages mutual trust and a positive relationship.
Training is ongoing, for both dogs and humans (including myself!) so from getting a puppy and teaching it’s first cues to changing the behaviour of an adult dog or just having fun teaching your dog new tricks, I am here to help.
I provide personal, affordable training for you and your furry friend in Oakworth, Keighley and the surrounding areas including Skipton, Sutton, Baildon and Shipley.
I will travel further where required - mileage cost will apply.
