Nancy was very knowledgeable in helping our Golden with his reactivity.
With trining class he is now able to join the pack walk with minimal barking and pulling. The pack walk has been an welcoming environment for us and our dog to work on skills learned.

We highly recommend Awesome K9 for your dog training! We had a PAWTASTIC experience with Nancy-Lynn😍
We came to her with our adult dog Savanah who lacked social skills, always barking when someone was at the door, and was anxious around other people/ dogs. Nancy-Lynn trained us to train Savanah, explained the reasoning behind each step and how that affects the dog’s behavior and response. She was very patient as we came in as a family of 4, she listened to our concerns and gave us specific tips and achievable goals - including our 10-year old kids.
One of my personal things is that Nancy-Lynn truly understands how dogs are part of the family, and she doesn’t enforce an extreme “tough love” approach. She guided us to be firm but still warm.
Thank you Nancy-Lynn for all your efforts, and for sharing your expertise with us ❤️ We can’t wait to join the pack walks and continue to develop the skills for us and Savanah 🐾

Coco was very anxious, nervous and all over the place before the training. We dreaded walking him as he was lunging, pulling and barking at any dog he sees. We were so frustrated as it was impossible to sit him in a class with other dogs. One on one training with Nancy made “life-changing” impact on our lives. We see him more focused, confident and happy now. And us too! It’s so worth it!

Nancy changed our lives. Our almost 1 year old Golden Retriever was taking play biting so far that it was too stressful to walk him. I always had a pair of gloves on to protect my hands. Not to mention all the pulling on the leash. Nancy gave us the right tools and taught us how to walk him without pulling and curb the biting. She taught us how to give our dog boundaries and be calm at the same time. Now I feel confident on the walks and we walk well together. We're still working hard to practice everything we've learned and to get all the socialization and exercise for our fur ball. Nancy was also so much fun to work with. P.S. I have retired the gloves 🙂

Nancy Lynn is amazing and understands dogs so well. She is great at sharing her knowledge to train us humans how best to work with our beloved dog family members.

Our new puppy is was very shy and timid by nature and she helped us understand how best to work with our lovely Willow. I would not hesitate to recommend Awesome K9 to anyone who wants to learn more about themselves and their dog to gain the best dog human relationship experience.

We loved our training experience at Awesome K9 Inc! Nancy Lynn is kind and knowledgeable and encouraging in her approach. She helped us take our 3 year old Whoodle (Wheaten Terrier X Poodle) from anxious to more confident and eager to please over the course of our weeks together. Would highly recommend!

On the recommendation of a co-worker, we booked the Proven Puppy training program to help with our new puppy, specifically to work on potty training, reduce his biting and walking on a leash. We have raised a few dogs but it’s been a while since we experience the puppy stage as we’ve been more used to senior dogs.

We wrapped up our sessions about a month ago, but have been practicing with our puppy since attending. Overall, he is a much better listener since attending the training sessions and practicing at home. He's more consistent in coming when he's called, much gentler in playing and getting better on his leash with every walk. He’s even gotten into some agility training! It’s really rewarding to see him learn and respond so positively – such a smart boy!

Getting a new puppy can be overwhelming. We found it really helpful to work with Nancy-Lynn and learn the steps towards getting good behaviour and responses, rather than punishing bad behaviour. Although some lessons were challenging, including using the leash, we found her approach to be very clear, consistent and kind, which we appreciated. We found that breaking down the steps to be very helpful and we, as humans, learned just as much as our puppy did!

We’re looking forward to attending a pack walk in the warmer weather as we continue to work on his training. We would recommend Nancy-Lynn to any owner of a new puppy who’s looking for a solid base of basic training!

When I had first approached Nancy-Lynn I had just gotten my first puppy and was beyond stressed at the constant biting, inability to go in her crate and numerous other behaviors that I now realize are just puppy behaviors. Nancy-Lynn was incredibly patient with us and is an amazing trainer.

Over the span of several weeks Nancy-Lynn would ask us how the previous week had gone and would give us homework to work on and as each week went by our puppy became the best dog.

With the purchase of puppy classes which we did we also got 6 months of free pack walks which was HUGE. It was an amazing value. We were the ones with the puppy that started by biting her leash and trying to escape her collar and by the end of them our dog was walking loosely on leash by us.

I highly recommend Nancy-Lynn as your future trainer.
