After adopting Bocephus from the local pound, I quickly learned I needed someone more experienced than me to train this loveable yet highly energetic hound dog who had the manners of a toddler/teenager mixed.  After a very detail and long conversation with Kirk on the phone, Bo and I went to our consultation with Kirk at his home.  There I met Kirk and Bella and felt instantly at ease and knew they were the right ones to help.  Bella was our at home trainer and what more can I saw other than she is truly amazing!  Bo and I both love her and learned so much from her.  Yes I still have a goofy loveable hound dog but he is so well mannered now and it's all thanks to Down & Dirty Dog Training and Bella!  So if you need help with your pup look no further than right here, you will be so happy you gave them a call.

Kirk is so nice. He came to my house to assess my dog and gave  me all the information before signing my dog up for training. He’s friendly and answers any questions I have/had. Bella was the one who trained him and was also friendly and personable. I learned so much from them both and use it daily with my dog. Consistency is key with training! I would definitely recommend them both!

Kirk and the Down & Dirty Training crew were phenomenal to work with. They’re all super personable and did great with our 6 goofy month old golden puppy, Sunny. After 6 weeks of training it was really amazing to see the progress they’ve made! We loved getting our weekly updates to keep up with his progress (and to see how much our little guy was growing!) Very happy and have already recommended Down & Dirty Dog Training to several others.

Down and Dirty Dog is amazing! Took my 4 year old fur baby that had no prior training and he is a completely different dog! Before training he was reactive to just about everything, now I can handle him with confidence. We can even go out in public and he doesn’t try to eat anyone! Kirk and his team were very knowledgeable in dog’s behaviors. Kirk worked with me on a specific plan for us and was patient with me every step of the way. I would absolutely recommend them!

my younger minature labradoodle (20lbs) is a delinquent alpha.  Kirk did a great job in bringing this beast to heel.  So far so good in  paying attention on walks and not going crazy at every squirrel, deer, golf cart, or other dogs.

What an incredible experience from start to finish. We rescued a beautiful little Shepard in January. She was quite reactive and very much not a public walking pup. She came from an interesting life and we just wanted to make it better for her. This was going to require training beyond what we knew. Posted around looking for a trainer and Kirk with Down & Dirty was mentioned everywhere. Well after the experience, I completely understand why.
We booked our consultation which was so welcoming and educational from Kirk. Located right at his home with the most beautiful training setup and boarding program. He’s very transparent and tells you all the details while also sharing his love and passion for dogs.
We did the 4 week boarding program for on leash training. He is also mentoring a few other trainers on his team to assist in his growing business.
During the process once we agreed, they had sent photos and videos of progress.
When we went to get our dog we were made aware of the progress then taught the structure to keep the focus and progress moving forward.

Bella was one of the trainers and her “go home” presentation was fantastic to help us understand life at home with our disciplined pup.
It’s very very wholesome to see Bella and Kirk treat and talk to our dog like she was their own which proved to us why Kirk and the team at Down & Dirty Dog Training are more than just a business, they are trying to make better dogs but most importantly - better connections from dogs to people.

I could not recommend this business more. They are truly amazing. Trust me!

Kirk and Down and Dirty did a great job training our seven month old lab puppy. After four weeks of training she had learned all the basic obedience commands: sit, stay, place, come, heel, free etc. and does them reliably. Walking her is a pleasure: she doesn't pull or react to dogs, squirrels etc. She has gone from a wild and crazy puppy to a calmer dog who listens and behaves. Thank you, Kirk!!!

Kirk is the best! He taught our dogs so many commands and they are much calmer now. He is always available to answer any questions and willing to work with our schedules. We can't recommend him enough.

Ive never hired a dog trainor before Kirk. He was informative right off the bat as to what we were looking to accomplish with my girl thru our sessions. He's available all the time for advice, you can send videos of your training to him to see what's not working. Your sessions are based on your level of training, no rush for the next one. I highly recommend Down and Dirty training with Kirk

I just returned home from a 9 day vacation which lead me to leave my 5.5 month Doberman with Down and Dirty Dog Training. I was extremely impressed by the level of care he received and their attention to detail. They were so attentive to even his chronic skin condition. His skin and coat upon pick up made it obvious that he had received some amazing spa treatments while I was away. They responded quickly to all of my questions and concerns. I was also impressed that the owner made a point to meet and speak with me personally.  I was ultimately so impressed,  my pup and I will be scheduling a consult to begin training. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone needing peace of mind when trusting someone else with their dogs.
