Why Wildflower K9

Serious results, without the drill sergeant.

If you've been searching for a dog trainer near Kenton who actually listens — to you and your dog — you're in the right place.

i.

STSK9 Certified

Certified through STSK9 with L.I.M.A. (Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive) methods — the gentlest effective approach for each dog.

ii.

Tailored Per Dog

No one-size-fits-all program. Methods change depending on the dog I'm training — because what works for one won't work for another.

iii.

Real-World Training

We train where life happens — stores, restaurants, public spaces — so good behavior holds up outside the training field.

iv.

Built on Experience

Over 5 years professional experience, trained under many different trainers, and working with dogs since middle school.

Reach Out

Call, text, or send the intake form. Tell us about your dog — breed, age, and what's driving you up the wall.

02

Evaluation

We meet your dog, watch how they move through the world, and talk honestly about what's realistic.

03

Custom Plan

A training plan built around your dog's temperament and your family's goals — not a one-size-fits-all package.

Train & Graduate

Consistent sessions, homework you can actually do, and a dog you're proud to take anywhere.

From Our Families

The proof is in the dogs.

Our shepherd mix pulled so hard on the leash I dreaded walks. After working with Wildflower K9, I walk him past other dogs, tractors, you name it — on a loose leash. It honestly feels like a different dog.

We brought our puppy at ten weeks old with zero idea what we were doing. They didn't just train her — they taught us. The at-home routine was simple and it worked.

Patient, honest, and incredibly good at reading dogs. Our rescue came with real anxiety and they never rushed her. She's a confident, happy girl now.
