No dog is too big, too old, or too stubborn!
If your dog’s behavior is stressing you out,
Text is fine too!
Christina Donahoe, Owner and Head Trainer
At your wits' end with your dog?
Say "Goodbye" to problematic puppy behavior, and "Hello" to positive change in your dog from Day 1.
Solve behavior problems like:
Jumping on guests
Pulling on leash
Puppy biting
Chasing and tackling the kids
Losing their mind when they see another dog
Not listening unless you have a cookie in your hand
And so much more
We help you stop the stress, end the overwhelm, and rekindle the joy in your life with your dog!
Want stress-free walks with your dog?
Want to quit getting bit by puppy needle teeth?
Want to include your dog more?
My puppy is driving me CRAZY!
The biting is horrible, my clothes are ripped and I always have bruises and cuts on my arms. Not to mention it HURTS! Plus, every time I turn around, there’s a mess to clean up, and my house smells so bad. He’s tearing up the sofa, and I can’t get him to stop chasing my poor cat. My older dog is sick of him!
Walks stress me out.
I feel guilty that I don’t walk my dog more, but she always loses her mind and starts pulling and barking when we see other dogs and people, it’s so embarrassing. I’m always scared she might do something, and I don't want anyone to get hurt.
I can’t have family over to visit because my dog has NO MANNERS.
She jumps all over people, and I'm worried she’s going to accidentally hurt my mother. I’m sad that I have to lock my dog in the bedroom any time people come over, but she nearly knocks people over in her excitement.
My puppy REFUSES to listen to me.
He won’t come when I call him to come inside from the yard. He runs out the door and I’m scared he’s going to get hit by a car. I’m so frustrated because he just ignores me, and I have to chase him down to catch him.
I feel like I can't leave the house.
My puppy barks and cries any time I leave, and I can’t have the neighbors lodging a noise complaint. Taking the puppy with me is just as bad because he has no manners and can’t behave in public. I’m stuck and don’t know what to do.
We’ve done training before, but it didn’t work.
My dog does her commands pretty well in the house, but it all goes out the window the moment we step outside. Plus, I’m still having the main problem I got training for in the first place. I've tried everything I can think of, and I’m about ready to give up.
...Or maybe your dog just needs some basic obedience so you can do more and live easier with them!
No matter the issue, the dog behavior experts at K9 Inclined Dog Training can help.
We’re not about training that your dog forgets a few months later. Not only will your pup come out of training with the skills needed to be successful in wherever life takes them, you will also have what you need to maintain the training and ensure it lasts a lifetime.
Breathe easy knowing your dog will happily do what you say when it counts (and even when it doesn’t!) because they’ll know that listening leads to good things. What's even better is you won’t have to have a treat in your hand every time you ask them to do something!
Finally relax knowing there are no more messes to clean up after work; you won’t get jump-tackled on your way in the door; and your pup can behave around your kids, your friends and family that visit, and around your other pets.
Christina helped me train my 4 month old chihuahua and broke her of bad habits such as lunging, biting, and not wanting anything to do with her gear. K9 Inclined took care of all that and is helping me with other skills that have made owning a puppy so much easier.
I didn't think my pup could be trained, but Christina proved me wrong. She offers all types of opportunities to connect, review and ask questions about your lessons. She definitely guides you through the process and is always available.

Through a compassionate, holistic training approach that takes the dog’s AND the human’s needs into consideration, we will get to the root of the problems you’re having and build you and your dog into a rock solid team that can chill on the couch, or take on the world.

We guide you every step of the way to become a confident leader your dog can trust and depend on to make good choices on their behalf.
If you struggle with anxiety, tension, or high stress (especially when walking or working with your dog), we will coach you through strategies to prevent your own emotions from affecting your dog, and build your confidence so you can feel less anxious.
When things get tough and distractions are hard to ignore, your dog will be able to relax and let you handle things.

No more fumbling around in the dark trying to do this stuff by yourself. We will help you see results faster and easier because we’ve been there, done that.
I would 110% recommend K9 Inclined to help you train your dog. Callie’s transformation was 180 degrees from where she started.
In addition, we were deeply appreciative of Christina’s efforts to adapt Callie’s training to my wife’s disabilities.
I cannot recommend K9 Inclined highly enough to anyone who would like their dog trained to be a calm, obedient companion.
-Christopher and Julieanne Miller and "Callie" the 11-month-old Labrador mix

With K9 Inclined, you’ll never have to wonder if your dog is in good hands when you come for training or boarding. You’ll know it by your dog’s tail-wagging excitement to see us, and our 100% transparent communication with you throughout your dog’s stay.
Never feel like you have to do it all on your own. With unrivaled support, a door that’s always open, and 10 years of experience training dogs and guiding pup parents, we’ve got your back so you don’t feel alone at any point during your dog’s training.
We absolutely love working with Christina! Hank loves her too.
I need hands on learning, I want to understand it all and Christina does that. She’s patient but straightforward. I feel like we are learning just as much as our pup is.
Having a 140lb Great Dane not listen was not an option. He is becoming such an amazing dog with his training. If you want hands on training and to actually learn how to work with your pup, definitely go with K9 Inclined!!

Christina is amazing, extremely knowledge, and cares about my dog as I do. She is helping me get my dog’s weight under control, and helping with training issues I am having.
My dog is a service dog in training, and Christina is doing a great job helping me with all training that I am having issues with.
I truly cannot express how amazing she is, and I would not trust anyone else with my dog who is my life line.
-Jessica Goldberg and "Hank" the Great Dane
