K9Aholics NC Dog Training

Let’s create a confident, well-behaved dog—together.

At K9Aholics NC, we specialize in strengthening the bond between dogs and their owners through effective, results-driven training. Our mission is to equip dogs with lifelong skills that promote confidence, obedience, and stability in both everyday life and challenging environments. With over six years of hands-on experience, I have successfully trained numerous dogs to thrive not only at home but also in competitive dog sports—disciplines that demand advanced obedience and months, sometimes years, of dedicated training. 

My personal passion lies in helping dogs become confident, reliable companions who can seamlessly integrate into their owners’ lives. At K9Aholics NC, we don’t just train dogs—we build strong partnerships that last a lifetime.

Not just tricks—but trust and control.

Frequently Asked Questions

We take a modern balanced approach to training. We make sure to focus on the dog in front of us and not use a one size fits all training method. This allows us to work on problems specific to the owners concerns, as well as creating a well rounded dog.

Yes. We do offer payment plans where the payment can be split up over the length of the program in which your dog will be training with us.
Yes. We exclusively offer boarding to clients who have already completed our 3 or 4 week board and train programs. This boarding includes refresher training.
Your dog will be staying in home with the trainer they are assigned to. Offering a more one on one approach rather than a large training facility with lots of dogs that can be a stressful environment for dogs.
Dogs will be sleeping in kennels, our trainers use the brand Ruffland. We also utilize kennel time during the day for when they are relaxing and not out doing something productive. This makes sure your dog stays safe during their time with our trainers.
No, we do not need you to provide anything but food for your dog while they are in for training. You may also send any medications that your dog needs to receive during their stay. What is required to book a board and train? We require a deposit of $500 to secure your spot in our schedule. This will come off of the total cost of the program.
