Why Owner Coaching Is the Key to Lasting Change

Dogs don’t come with instruction manuals. But with the right guidance, you can become your dog’s best teacher. Unlike traditional board-and-train models, Earls K9 Services focuses on real-time owner E-learning, giving you the confidence to address:


  • Excessive barking

  • Leash reactivity

  • Aggression or fear-based behaviors

  • Jumping, digging, chewing

  • Anxiety or mistrust in rescue dogs

  • General obedience and boundaries

With 24/7 support and in-person demonstrations, I equipped you with practical, repeatable techniques using e learning and streaming video courses so your progress doesn’t vanish when the trainer walks away.

Real Results from Kansas City, Missouri and surrounding areas Dog Owners

We have an 80 lb lab/pitbull mix who was reactive on walks and who had pulled so hard my mom fell a few times when walking her. With Earl’s recommendations and critiques on how to train her she is much better behaved and we all are more comfortable walking her now! She’s not pulling on walks the way she was before - which makes us all much more comfortable and able to enjoy these walks more! We all wish we would’ve met with earl sooner.

We have used Earl for 2 of our dogs. He is full of great information and wonderful to work with. Thank you!

FAQs About Our Dog Training Philosophy

Do you train the dog for me?

No. I coach you to become the leader your dog needs. This results in deeper, long-lasting change because the dog responds to your cues — not just a trainer’s.

What kinds of behavior issues can you help with?

Aggression, reactivity, anxiety, leash pulling, barking, destruction, socialization problems, and more. Every plan is customized.

What if I’ve worked with other trainers before?

Earl frequently works with dogs and owners who’ve seen limited results elsewhere. His behavior-first method is often the missing piece.
