Photo from review“Aria is a rescue dog, and when we first started training, she was very nervous around both people and other dogs. The difference has been incredible! Aria is now doing amazing around both people and other dogs.”
Photo from review“Peanut is a Pittie/boxer mix and struggled when around other dogs. He completed a 4 week board and train. I couldn't be more proud of how far Peanut has come. I truly can't say enough good things.”
Photo from review“She greets people politely, holds her place when asked, and walks beautifully on a leash or e-collar. The biggest gift has been the confidence we now have to take her places with us.”
Photo from review“Casey sent me videos of him training, and playing, every day. I was impressed with the progress he was making in the videos, and I was even more impressed when he got home.”
Photo from review“She resolved his low confidence, high-reactivity and solidified basic obedience to transform him into the perfect companion for our family. 100% recommend!”
Photo from review“My baby Legend came home calmer and much easier to manage. Kay was so amazing that I plan to send Legend back for advanced training.”
Photo from review“Tucker was having problems with being mouthy and knowing boundaries. Since getting Tucker back he has been an amazing dog. His on and off leash obedience is amazing.”

“I had an absolutely outstanding experience with Keystone K9 and our trainer, Casey! My Rottweiler, Rhino, completed the 3-week board and train, and the results have been amazing.”

“As soon as Willow came home I could tell she was much more obedient and her confidence in new places grew tremendously.”

“After his boarding training sessions, the difference has been incredible. Maui is now willing to listen, follows commands, and is such a joy to have in our household.”

“Our pup is much better behaved. We had an AMAZING experience and couldn't be any happier!”

“Perfect experience! Just got my dog Hayes back and he has shown so much improvement. He is a 1 1/2 year old Cane Corso and he has turned into the perfect gentleman.”
“We sent our 9-month-old (85-pound) German Shepherd, Milo, to Casey for the 3-week board and train program. Casey was great at sending update texts, photos, and videos. Milo learned so much with Casey!”
“They had our 4 month old golden retriever for just two weeks and he came back a changed dog! We are very pleased and will use them again in the future.”
“He lacked confidence so he was super reactive with other dogs and new people. After getting back he has shown an extreme amount of improvement. We can take him out in public now and he is well behaved.”
“They did an amazing job training my Great Dane, and the entire experience was positive from start to finish. It gave me so much confidence knowing my Great Dane was in such good hands.”
“She took a three year-old Cane Corso that was unruly and unsafe with people he didn't know and he came home very different after he was trained. I would do it again.”
“We sent our sweet Bernedoodle, Moose, for a 3 week board and train program. The second we met Casey she immediately eased all of our nerves. Over the course of the program, she continually sent updates, pictures and videos of his progress.”
“He was energetic, impulsive, and much more interested in doing his own thing than listening to us. 3 weeks later, Milo has come such a long way. He is walking better, responding to commands, and learning how to make good choices.”
“Stella is a rescue, and because of her past, she needed patience, understanding, and someone who could help her feel safe while learning. Stella is now more confident, better behaved, and much more responsive.”
“Casey was so wonderful with our little Chewy. The training has allowed us to keep Chewy even with our new baby around, our family can stay whole!”
“Casey was able to find ways to redirect his energy and get him to focus on commands. She made things interesting for him and I think he thought he was on vacation the whole time lol.”
