Our Method

K9 University is a Thousand Oaks-based dog training service that is dedicated to empowering dog-owners to lead their pack. Our trainers are experts in dog psychology and employ techniques that enable owners to build a foundation for trust, confidence, and leadership. However, creating harmony in a pack takes time and effort.

K9 University values its ability to train dogs as highly as its capacity for empathizing with owners and supporting them through the process.
