About Free Paws K9

What they offer

Free Paws K9 Training's services page offers a free consultation at your home, then a Doggy Day Train program – a hybrid that works with you and your dog one-on-one over six weeks – and board and train programs, which it describes as its most intensive, with overnight stays. A separate two-week aggressive-dog board and train focuses on working through the dog's triggers in different environments, followed by classes with a trainer. The home page also offers one-on-one grooming.

Approach and team

The About page says the business opened in 2022, trains in a home setting and in public, and teaches owners to communicate with their dogs, from basic house and leash manners to more complex behavior issues. It names Brenden and Christie as veteran co-owners and says Brenden is AKC certified to evaluate dogs for the Canine Good Citizen test. The services page mentions a military and first-responder discount. Its pages name both Hazel Green and Toney, so ask where training takes place.
