I can’t say enough good things about Alyxandra McKenna and Align K9! I recently boarded and trained my pup Knight through their program, and the results have been incredible. From the very first day back home, people have been commenting on how well-behaved and attentive he is. He’s truly even better than I imagined he could be, and I credit that entirely to the care, consistency, and expertise Alyxandra brings to her work.

It’s clear that Knight not only learned skills but also gained confidence and structure while in her program. He returned happy, well-adjusted, and eager to keep practicing everything he was taught. Align K9 has given us such a strong foundation for his future training and development, and I feel so much more prepared as his handler.

If you’re looking for a trainer who blends professionalism with genuine love for dogs, Align K9 is the place. I wholeheartedly recommend Alyxandra to anyone who wants to see real transformation in their pup.

This is our dog Luna. She is fearful of strangers and other dogs. We've tried classes, meds, positive reinforcement training, you name it! She did a board and train with Align K9 about 4 months ago and we have finally found some peace for her! Alex did a great job keeping us updated during training, figuring out what was causing Luna so much fear and creating a solid plan for her when she returned to our house. Obviously no trainer has a magic wand and there is still work to be done, but the board and train came with a year of monthly follow-up lessons and she is very responsive to any questions that come up. We just met at a park today for a lesson, which is something Luna would not have been able to handle before the board and train! I highly recommend Align K9 for your peace of mind and your dog's!

We sent our 8 week old puppy to Align K9 for puppy kindergarten for two weeks. The entire process was smooth and we had daily communication and updates. Any questions upon coming home with our new addition were quickly answered. Our girl Timber has such a great foundation thanks to Align K9. She loves her crate, rarely has an accident in the house, had her basic sit, down, and come started. As well as a great start to desensitization and just making her overall a happy and confident girl. We have no regrets with going with Align K9!

Alexandra of Align K9 Training has trained our head strong hound to listen and respond to us. She has patience and determination to do the best for our puppy and us. When leaving each training session we are left with written and clear instructions to keep up what she just worked on with our puppy. She is always on time for every training session. I can contact her anytime with questions and concerns. She has the most reasonable rates, worth every dollar. Please call her, it will be the best decision you will make for your dog and family.

Alyxandra is truly great at what she does. Not only is she responsive and professional, but she truly cares about your dogs. She’s great at training the dogs but was also great at providing me and my husband with the information we needed to train our dogs on our own. She’s a great trainer and knows her stuff. Highly recommended.
