About True Friend K9 Dog Training

Mobile dog training in Galveston

True Friend K9 Dog Training is a veteran owned mobile dog training business based in Galveston, serving Texas City, La Marque, Alvin, Hitchcock, Clear Lake, South Shore Harbor, League City, San Leon and beyond. Trainer David Ortiz is a US Marine Corps veteran who has been training military working dogs and civilian pets since 2013, and holds multiple certifications in patrol and detector dog handling through the American K9 Interdiction institute.

Approach

The business emphasizes discipline and "tried and true" techniques, with goals such as a dog that listens even without treats and looks to its owner for direction. It works on barking, jumping and leash pulling, dog and people aggression, fence fighting, resource guarding, heeling on and off leash, and kenneling on command.

Services

Services include basic obedience training, stopping food aggression and heel on command, for puppies and adult dogs. David volunteers at the Galveston Island Humane Society.
