We took our rescue to Patriot K-9 to help with several issues. Alyssa and Sarah worked wonders with Dallas. He’s very intelligent but stubborn! They gave me the tools to work through the stubbornness and have a pleasant dog in the house. We also boarded Dallas with them and it was a wonderful experience for him. They sent videos of Dallas while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind. If you need any help with your dog, go see the wonderful trainers at Patriot K-9!!

We sent our 4 month old puppy to a two week board and train. Alyssa and Sarah were wonderful! Our puppy came back very well behaved and learned so much. We even used the follow up sessions to work on other items, which was very helpful. We have recommended Patriot K Nine to many of our friends in the area. I highly recommend Patriot K Nine to anyone wanting to have a better behaved dog or a family who has just gotten a new puppy. We continually hear how well behaved our dog is for her age and I would like to accredit a lot of it to the fact we invested in a good training program with amazing trainers.

Our rescue boxer Cooper had a rough start in life. He was not exposed to much and received zero training. He needed to learn manners and self-control. After coming to Patriot K Nine for the last two months, we can see a huge difference in his behavior. He is able to be calm, focus and has done so well with his training . He is more confident, and we owe that to what we have learned from our trainers. Highly recommended to anyone who wants to watch their furbaby transform in a great training environment.

I am so grateful for Patriot K Nine Training & Behavior. I was so ready to rehome Ace. The training was not just for Ace but for me as well. I seem to be the issue. Ace is now a well-mannered dog. I just want to learn the trick I saw them with do with one of the workers own dog. He was barking and she told her it was too loud and to whisper the dog immediately barked low. OMG I was amazed truly a GOD send. They are gifted. DOG WHISPER SKILLS.I love to walk and exercise but Ace had me in tears as he drug me down the street. Walk??? NO DRAG. After his very first session he was so much better. We now walk, run and play together.THANK YOU,Ace Mommy....Shirley

We have enjoyed puppy training with Shelly who has been very helpful with solutions to those puppy tendencies. We have also utilized the Saturday puppy socialization to help our Australian shepherd get out her energy and be comfortable with other dogs. The entire staff is there to help you and your puppy with all the growing pains!

I stopped in to grab a muzzle for one of my dogs. The gentleman that was assisting me was very kind and helpful. We had to fit her for the muzzle. It fits great! Very happy with my purchase and customer service. I will be back!

I recommend Patriot K Nine to anyone struggling with their dog. This is Koda and we were having a hard time trying to get him to calm down and stop pulling whenever we went outside. The first session we had didn’t go as planned but Patriot K Nine was always there for us and tried to help us with Koda since he was being a rebellious teenager 😂. Second time around he did much better and came back as a new “man”. When they say that they will support you they actually mean it which is amazing as most companies now days don’t. We had the pleasure of working with Shelly and Amber recommend both ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My first time needing a dog trainer and my experience with this company was phenomenal! I have a Cane Corso who weighs as much as I do and I wanted to make sure as she grew she understood her role and commands well. Her trainer came to our house, was very flexible with scheduling and had great communication skills with both me and my dog. A year later my dog is still on point with her commands and recall. Can't thank the ladies who helped enough! Exceeded my expectations! I would absolutely recommend. - Richelle Secor

We have two high-drive German Shepherds which we take to Patriot K Nine for training. The trainers at Patriot K Nine have so much experience working with all different types of dogs, different issues, and ages. We have learned so much from them regarding how we interact with our dogs and how we manage them to make them "good citizens". We feel comfortable taking our dogs out anywhere in public and knowing that we have the knowledge needed to handle most any situation that arises.

I cannot thank Amber enough for her INVALUABLE guidance in training my dog, Bear. Before Amber’'s help, Bear was the epitome of stubbornness – he wouldn't listen, couldn't sit still, and was reactive. She taught me the necessary techniques and structure to effectively communicate with Bear. He has gotten out of my fence, and because she stressed the importance of recall; I only had to call his name and he came running back from 3 blocks away.Now, he not only relaxes inside the house without being placed in the kennel while I clean up whatever he has gotten ahold of but also obeys commands reliably. Amber's insight and instruction have truly transformed our relationship with Bear, and I can't thank her enough for correcting my mistakes and empowering me to be a better dog owner.

We did the puppy program for our chocolate lab George. The class has paid dividends and the socialization alone has helped George become such a well behaved dog. Professional staff and an excellent place for new dog owners like myself.

My experience with this training facility has been extremely positive. Not only have they stayed on top of my dogs journey but have been there if needed for extra refreshing needs. So very pleased with them. Though my dogs had several intense issues with there behaviors they have been transformed to trained members of the family now.

Patriot K Nine is an excellent choice for dog training! We have found their prices to be competitive within the greater Fayetteville area, and their services to be great! They have always been very flexible working with us, our schedule, and even added an additional week of training based on our dog's needs. They have a great training facility where you can simulate many of the issues you may have at home which we’ve found so helpful. Ultimately this is training for both the dog and owner. We feel confident with all the reach back/support we will have even after the initial couple weeks of training.

I can’t say enough positive things about Amber and Patriot K Nine. I initially booked a consultation when I was concerned about my anxious dog’s escalating dog reactivity worried that our upcoming move would only make things worse. I had spent a lot of money previously on dog training that didn’t help at all or only mildly helped. I had resigned myself to having a “difficult” dog. Amber was confident she could help us but I didn’t feel pressured so sign up for anything on the spot. We signed up and completed the social misfit program and couldn’t be happier. I felt like Amber was the first trainer to “see” our dog and make recommendations that were specific to him and not from a pre-prescribed formula. By the end of the program our dog could sit and walk calmly in the close presence of another dog an outcome I never could have imagined when we started in October. Amber and Patriot K Nine are the real deal.

Took my cattle mix for a 3 week board and train.She probably could have used a month, but even 3 weeks made me nervous.For over a year I dealt with the NON stop kennel barking and potty accidents, along with jumping on visitors when they walked into the house.I've been able to break every other dog I've had of these traits, but this lil demon dawg is special...After 3 weeks with Sarah, my girl now chills out in the kennel and doesn't jump AS much, but that's my own fault for not being as consistent with her as I should be.My girl also is now completely in love with car rides which she didn't care about at all before. So this was a super fun addition to do with her. I would absolutely take my future pups to Patriot K9!

Hello all, I had a wonderful check up visit with my trainer Jamie Hogan this week. I have 4 dogs and one is a field lab puppy, she is 20min the old now and went through the training with Jamie. I am constantly getting compliments on her obedience, recall and off leash walking. They ask how did I do it? I tell them simple patriot K-9 off Yadkin, my trainer Jamie is amazing patient and always available.I definitely recommend them to anyone whom needs assistance. I give them a 💯 percent satisfaction rate.

Dropped amari off for overnight boarding and it was a smooth simple process and when I returned to pick her up she was as happy as when I dropped her off, they took very good care of her and that made my time away from her stress free

We are so glad that we found Patriot K9 and enrolled our dog for the three week board and train. Our dog learned basic commands and became a better K9 citizen during her stay. We also enjoyed the follow on training with our trainer and she helped us become more confident with the commands. Our trainer, Rachelle, tailored the curriculum for our dog to fit our future travel plans and we look forward to continuing with the skills we learned. The training packages are top notch and we love that continued education is offered on the weekends to enforce the newly learned behaviors. We have met and worked with multiple trainers from the company and they have all been professional, helpful, and patient with the dogs and clients they interact with. We would highly recommend working with this company!

What a change in this boy. At 10 months old he was a wild boy, with some manners and fundamentals under his belt and of course with some additional mom training he is on his way to being a big boy. Thank you

Amber and her team are hands down the best and most compassionate and hardest working dog trainers I have ever worked with. Their dedication to making sure their clients, human and canine, have all the best tools to keep them safe and trained properly is unprecedented. Whether you are looking for basic obedience, advance obedience or service dog training you wont find anyone better than Patior K Nine. Best decision I ever made for me and our pup was signing up for their classes. Thank you Amber and team for all you did for my family and all you do for the dog community. Recommend 100%

We needed help with training our puppy and very glad we brought her here. We have noticed a huge difference in our puppy Emma! Amber and the team have been a pleasure to work with. We definitely recommend bringing your dogs to Patriot K Nine Training & Behavior.

Recommend highly I took a chance and sent my 1yr old pup Tigger for Board & Training down to NC while I had knee replacement and recovery for 1 month in CT. Amber and trainer Rachelle kept me updated with videos of my boy in training. Whenever I had a question Amber was always quick to respond and made me feel at ease with my questions. This made my recovery so much better because I never once worried about my boy.I’m almost afraid that Tigger is having too much fun and may not want to come home. Thank you Amber & Rachelle for making my good boy a better boy. I highly recommend Patriot K9

Patriot K-9 has been great! I brought my pup in for the Empowerment program and my Australian shepherd had the pleasure of working with Abby. From the beginning, she always made sure training was fun for myself and pup. I informed her that I’ve never had a dog so she really walked me through the steps, correcting as needed. Since my pup has so much energy, she went out of her way to bring her dog so they can play and get some energy out. She has a lot of tips and knowledge about dog training! Abby was also very flexible and was able to re-schedule a few sessions when I was out of town or when my dog was sick. Additionally, she would help trim our dog’s nails and she even taught/talked me how to as well. Towards the end of our sessions, she started teaching us some cool tricks! Lastly, she’s always been available to answer questions and provides the best customer service. Training is an on going process, but she’s made it very fun and has helped me build my confidence in training. I’ve seen major improvements to my dogs behavior. I will always suggest her to people and I look forward to working with her more!

Our 2 year old dog, Mako, was lacking in dog manners and was being very stubborn when it came to listening to comands. She also is high energy and very excitable which was causing her to get overwhelmed at times and would vomit. Thanks to the Empowerment Program Mako now has the basics down, we as pet parents are better at communicating with her, she has self-soothing techniques to help prevent her from excitement vomiting, and we can enjoy taking her out and about without worry! We are now working in group classes to help her gain dog manners (how to behave with other dogs around). She might be a little chatty sometimes at group classes, but she's still capable of listening to commands and has a great time! Prior to the Empowerment Class, she wouldn't have been able to be around other dogs without freaking out and potentially vomiting. Thank You Patriot K Nine!!!

We did the easy leash training and they did an amazing job with my boy Frankie. He walks totally different now on his leash they provided. I don’t live in NC anymore but I HIGHLY RECOMMEND PATRIOT TO ANY ONE LIVING NEAR THE FAYETTEVILLE AREA!!!

I am a first time GSD mommy. When we originally brought Freyja home we knew that we wanted to train her, not because she was a bad dog because she never was. Our main thing was how low her confidence was so it made her skittish in a way (for example: she ran from sticks, and barked at every little thing). She also picked and chose when she wanted to listen. Once we found Patriot K-9, we definitely wanted to at least look into it after reading all these amazing reviews, I never thought i’d be making one too but they are tooooo amazing not to!! We scheduled a consult right away and we were so glad that we did. It was definitely the most welcoming experience we ever had. We ended up choosing the empowerment program that same day! The best thing about the empowerment program that I absolutely loved was all the equipment it came with, and their teaching style! They don’t only train your dog, but they HELP YOU train your dog! You as the fur babies parent(s) get to be actively involved in their training and their journey on growing. Freyja absolutely loves it here, she always gets SUPER excited every time we pull into the parking lot. Our trainer was Tom, and he was absolutely amazing, and has a HUGE heart for GSDs. Words cannot describe how wonderful he is. He taught us so many helpful and useful things, we couldn’t have done it without him. Freyja just recently graduated her empowerment program and has now been moved up to group classes. We cannot wait to continue our journey here with them! You guys are absolutely amazing, we appreciate you guys so so much!!! Thank you guys for giving us MORE than what we expected and giving us such a warm welcome, and the love and care for Freyja!

We did a 3 weeks stay and train for my senior husky with Alyssa & Sarah. They were very informative on how the whole process were and sent daily updates on her training. She doesn’t pull anymore and listens quite well! The program also has daily weekends training for those who choose that route. (As seen in the pictures)THEY ALSO HAVE MILITARY DISCOUNT! 10/10 would recommend for those with a busy schedule or reactive pet.

Patriot K9 helped me fit and order a Dakota dog kennel. They were very knowledgeable.and kept me informed throughout the ordering processed. The kennel was drop shipped to my home within a week and I'm very pleased with both the kennel and service. Thank you!

Took my dog and will use for everyone of them! Trainers were great, personable, good scheduling options. They set up extra activities to see if the dog’s like them (dock diving, agility, racing) and have events for more socialization (park walks, restaurant visits).

I cannot say enough good things about Patriot K Nine, especially Jen and Amber. My puppy did the two week stay and train program with Jen over Christmas. Not only did Jen teach my puppy all of the basic commands, but also taught me how to continue practicing and building on those skill sets. I have also been impressed from the continued support after the training-from weekly puppy classes to last minute boarding. Not only do I love Patriot K Nine, but so does my dog. After going to pick him up today from an overnight with Jen, he didn’t want to leave.
