RJ and his staff are absolutely amazing! We’ve done two private sessions and one group lesson so far, and both our dog and we have learned so much already. They are incredibly patient—not just with the dogs, but with us as owners too—and their knowledge really shows in everything they do.
During our group lesson, Jay worked with us closely and he was fantastic! As someone who is new to both owning a bigger dog and to training, I felt completely comfortable being a novice. They created a supportive environment where I could ask questions, make mistakes, and learn without any judgment.
I can’t recommend K9RJ Training enough. We’re already excited to continue with more lessons and keep building on everything we’ve learned!

RJ took the time to explain each step of the training process, always making sure we understood what to do and why it worked. He was never rushed, always encouraging, and made the whole experience enjoyable—not just for Hera, but for us too.
If you’re looking for a trainer who is calm, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about what they do, RJ is the one. We’re so grateful for the progress Hera has made and couldn’t recommend him more!

I had an in home session with Jay. He worked with our new rescue pup and gave me pointers to help with different behaviors.
The session really helped ME to be able to help my pup!
RJ seriously changed everything for me and my dog (pitbull terrior). Before training, walks were a nightmare. He’d pull nonstop, bark at every dog, jump on people. I couldn’t take him anywhere or be around company without stressing.
After the board and train, it’s like I have a different dog. He stays in a perfect heel the whole time. We went to the beach, Dogs and people everywhere, and he didn’t even react. I laid down in the water and he just laid next to me, completely calm.
I can finally take him out in public without worry. The progress he made in just a few sessions is insane. 100% worth it RJ knows what he’s doing.
I can’t thank RJ enough for the awesome work he did with our girl Sadie! In just 4 sessions she has made a complete turnaround… from lunging and barking at other dogs, to obediently awaiting my command, we are so happy with the results!
He also gave me tips and tricks to help me with training her at home! I highly recommend him, he did fantastic!
I can’t recommend RJ enough for dog training! My dog, Bear, was extremely aggressive toward both people and other dogs. In just the first visit, RJ taught Bear basic commands, and over the following sessions, Bear’s behavior improved significantly. By the end of the training, Bear could reliably follow commands and interact calmly with other dogs—something I never thought was possible.
RJ’s method was structured and effective. He explained every step of the process, debriefed me after each session, and provided clear guidance on how to continue Bear’s progress at home. What stood out most was RJ’s confidence and expertise. He even introduced Bear to his own dog as part of the training, which helped immensely with socialization.
RJ had initially told me that Bear would need about 12 visits to fully overcome his aggressive tendencies, but Bear achieved that milestone by the 9th visit! The results have been incredible. I’m now much more confident when taking Bear out in public.
If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and professional trainer to address anything from basic obedience to serious behavioral issues, RJ is the one to call. Highly recommend!

RJ did a great job with our little ball of energy. We were amazed at how much progress he made with her in just a short time. He took the time to train us as well so we will remain consistent with her training and understand what commands to give and how to react to her responses. She still has plenty of energy; however, she is much better at controlling her reactions to other animals and follows commands very well.
We highly recommend RJ if you are looking for a trainer for your furry companion. You may also learn something as well.
They are now able to sit, lay down, come, walk as a pair on leash, walk off-leash and more. He has also worked with them in public settings, teaching them to listen even when they’re in a busy and unknown environment. Thank you, RJ for what you’ve done with Mabel and Fred. We don’t even recognize them and we couldn’t be happier with their results,
I can’t put it into words how amazing RJ did with my dog Jelly! She was a rescue with really bad reaction problems.
Thank you for the advice and time you took to speak with us. We were on the verge of giving up and putting her down.
Our pup no longer attacks herself or us at feeding time. Thank you for saving her!
She was cared for very well during boarding with animals pets friends! We had 3.5 hours of training upon her return home! Lots of video’s during training. She’s listening! She’s doing well with “come”. Down stay. Had a very pleasant walk around st. Andrews marina, the park and the beach. Only on her 3rd day home, she sat and healed beautifully! Thank you rjk9
His love of animals and the desire for them to be obedient for their owner is his drive for excellence!! He will love your pet and your pet will love him.
Truly the ultimate trainer and wonderful person.
