Very patient, knowledgeable and kind. Tyson takes time to explain why we should train a certain way and the benefits of it. We have a brand new puppy and in the 2 days we have had her, there has already been success in training and redirecting. I highly recommend Kerr K9 for all dog owners that want a calm way to train with a trainer who actually cares about what he does.

I highly recommend Kerr K-9 Academy, for anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their dog! We recently had Gracie stay with Tyson for overnight boarding, and I could not have felt more comfortable leaving her in his care. Tyson was reliable, trustworthy, and had great communication throughout. It is hard to leave your dog somewhere and not worry, but with Tyson, I genuinely feel like Gracie is in good hands.

Tyson did an amazing job with Lola my Doberman. She was reactive/aggressive towards all other animals. She spent 2 weeks in the Confidence course and came back a completely different dog. We sat down with Tyson beforehand and put together a training plan. He updated me every night with her progress. Highly recommended.

Thanks Kerr K9 Academy for helping us teach our dog Jewells behavioral techniques. She is happier knowing what we want her to do and we are happier that she is behaving better. Life is so much sweeter and easier with a well trained dog.

I cannot recommend Kerr K9 Training enough! My dog originally spent two weeks with Tyson for training and came home with so many new skills, better manners, and a whole new level of respect and confidence. The best endorsement I can give is watching my dog run to Tyson and his wife like they are old family friends every time we arrive. I would absolutely recommend Kerr K9 to anyone looking for training or a trustworthy place to board their dog.
