About K9 Solutions Center

About

K9 Solutions Center is the Maryland branch of K9 Solutions, run by Scott and Tara Holliday from New Germany Road in Grantsville. The Hollidays have worked with dogs since the mid-1990s, turned to obedience training in 2011 with mentorship from the Ohio branch, and opened their own business in 2018. They describe themselves as certified balanced trainers who use positive, motivational methods and teach owners to train their own dogs.

Training

Foundation courses include puppy obedience for 12 weeks to five months, basic obedience for dogs six months and older, and a two-week board and train covering sit, stay, recall, heel and leash walking. Specialized programs cover behavior modification focused on aggression, e-collar training, man tracking for search and rescue or sport, and blood tracking for hunting and search. A trick class started in 2026, and the center also offers climate-controlled boarding.
