About River City K9

Training on 25 acres in Green Cove Springs

River City K9 (RCK9) is a family-owned training, daycare and boarding business in Green Cove Springs, serving Clay County, Fleming Island and Orange Park since 2019. Its 25-acre facility has climate-controlled kennels and large fenced play yards, and the owner milled the lumber for the buildings from trees on the property. The team credits itself with over five years of professional training experience and describes its methods as a mix of positive and balanced training.

Programs

The Puppy Program ($1,400) is a one-week stay-and-train focused on obedience imprinting, socialization, leash walking and manners. Basic Obedience On Leash ($1,500, dogs 6 months and up) is a one-week board and train covering leash walking, sit, stay, down and heel, followed by a handover session with the owner. Advanced Training Off Leash ($3,000, two weeks minimum) adds off-leash obedience and recall and includes training tools. Behavior Modification ($3,500+, three weeks minimum) addresses reactivity, aggression, barking, anxiety and socialization and includes a Mini Educator e-collar. One-hour private sessions and $50 training refreshers for graduates are also offered, and all training carries a satisfaction guarantee.
