I took my reactive 2 year old rescue dog to Levels K9 because we couldn’t go anywhere without him showing aggression by growling and lunging at other dogs, … More bikers, joggers, etc. We had previously tried a different training company that didn’t work and I didn’t know where to start with training a dog that had such high reactivity. This board and train was my last resort, I was desperate. My dog went for 5 weeks and has come back 100 times better! Erik and his team used positive reinforcement to help build my dogs confidence and communication skills. My dog now follows commands instantly and is less anxious because we have good communication. They laid a great foundation that is easy for me to follow and continue training my dog so that he retains all of the new skills he learned. Our dog has even been gentle and accepting of a new dog we brought into our family! After training ended, Erik has been very attentive in making sure to answer any questions and checking in on us. I couldn’t be happier with the dog training we received.

I highly recommend working with Erik. My dog Bruce started getting reactive when we relocated to Phoenix. It got to the point where it was impossible to … More take him out for walks without fear of meeting another dog. During the consult, I got a tour of the facility and saw how quickly Erik connected with Bruce. During the last week of the board and train I visited Levels multiple times and learned how to continue to work with Bruce and integrate him back into my home. Since completing the board and train there is peace in my home. Bruce is now comfortable and confident on our walks. I cannot thank Levels K9 enough for their continued help and guidance!

Highly recommend!!! I had 2 good, but untrained dobermans. Met with Erik, and had both dogs with him for a month training…. The return on investment … More has been very rewarding. My puppy is calm and very obedient. My older female is soo wanting to please. The best thing I could have done for myself, my dogs, and how we now communicate..

Highly recommend K9 dog training. It has been an amazing experience. Eric is very knowledgeable and his work is top notch. Not only did he transform our … More fur baby , but armed us with knowledge and training. Eric has become like family. He keeps in touch and really cares about the dogs being successful even after the completion of the training program.

I cannot recommend levels k9 enough. We just had our two Dutch Shepard’s train with Erik for 5 weeks. It was a great experience for both myself and the … More dogs. They have been able to learn how to become confident dogs, learn how to manage their energy, and able to help us communicate with them better. He also conditioned them and they have gained so much muscle! Erik is great at explaining the process and how to see it from the dog’s perspective.

Great trainer! Not only did Erik help us understand our dog he helped train us as owners to better care for her. Our pup was gone for 4 weeks and it was … More true transformation. She is eager for commands and is better with her anxiety due to Erik! Highly recommend his training program.

Erick was amazing with my girl! I brought her to him for a 3 week board and train for her reactivity/leash aggression issues. Not only did she learn to … More trust him, she has become calmer when walking. He gave me the tools i needed as well to continue making progress at home. He’s truly a dog whisperer, my dog respected him so much! His two follow up training sessions addressed any further practice we BOTH needed and I feel confident in me and my dogs future of living in harmony with our neighbors! Thanks Erick!!

Best decision ever, Erik did an amazing job with our Rottweiler, he turned into a different dog that now we enjoy. Erik is so knowledgeable, and took his … More time and patience to explain us how to continue his training he also made house visits to make sure everything is good. He will keep you updated every day and responds all your questions. Levels K9 has a great instalation and the cleanest of the place says your dog is in great hands. You won't regret it!!

Our 4month old golden retriever was wearing us out!! Then we heard about Erik and after 3 weeks with him she was a different dog!! We are following up … More daily with her training and Erik will have her for 3 more weeks when she turns 8 months. He is kind and patient and truly cares about each of the dogs he trains! We have had a lot of trainers over the years and Erik is the best!!

My dogs were running my household!! I gave Erik my two dogs for a 5 week board and train because I was ready to get rid of them altogether - my house had … More become very chaotic with both of them and a new baby. They are now home and are new dogs! They have boundaries now, with each other and with the house. The codependency has been addressed, and they are able to be apart without crying and barking. They listen and are engaged with my husband and I - no longer flying all over the furniture and smothering my little baby girl with slobber and sniffs.Erik sent me videos throughout the process, and from the first time meeting him I felt very safe leaving my dogs in his care. You can tell they were happy to be there, and when he comes to the home visits they are excited to see him!Thank you Erik for giving me my babies back just the way I expected - maybe even better!

Words can not express the amount of peace and relief Erik brought into our home! I came to him in serious need of help with our Shepherd/Boxer 10 month … More old. Pregnant and injured he immediately got me on the schedule and started working with Shelby. After a month long training, Shelby came home a transformed dog. He is also an extremely good human trainer!😊 My family now has the tools and knowledge needed to live in peace with our sweet Shelby. Worth every penny and more, would HIGHLY recommend to anyone!

Erik is a rockstar! He is so good with Stevie and helped me understand how training a dog works, and with some simple commands and consistency she has … More already improved so much since I adopted her. He is extremely knowledgeable and extremely patient. The facility is wonderful, always extremely clean and a perfect setup for training your dog! I can’t wait to continue bringing stevie back for classes!

Erik did an awesome job helping a first time pet parent better understand a small puppy and better care for him. The 4 weeks away from home made a big … More difference on Fabio.

I was convinced that our sweet (with family) 65 lb dog was aggressive with strangers. With three kids, that behavior wasn’t going to work. I was at my … More wits end and was willing to do just about anything to prevent Finn being put down. That’s where Erik came in and let me tell you what a God send he was. He was able to tell at first meet that Finn was not aggressive but had boundary issues. Erik requested a month to work with him. During that month, he sent videos to show Finn’s progress. I could tell within a week that Finn was flourishing under Erik’s guidance. The best part is towards the end of Finn’s training, my family was able to work with Erik and Finn to prepare for the transition home. Finn is now much more confident which has lead to better behavior. He listens to commands. We can take him on walks now without fear of Cujo making an appearance. Erik has made himself available for any questions and concerns during and after the month period. My biggest fear was taking Finn to the vet because he was muzzled last time he was there. Erik agreed to go with me as a part of the two follow up visits. The appointment went beautifully and I could have cried with how happy and relieved I felt. My family and I cannot fully express how thankful we are to Erik and we will be working with him further in group classes to continue Finn’s socializing and success as well as building our confidence as dog owners.

Thanks to Erik I have a new dog!! Erik did a fantastic job of working with our dog for 3 weeks. He took videos while he was working with Hans and sent … More to us which we can now view and use to continue the training. Hans is now well trained and Erik followed up with us with several visits to show us how to continue the journey to having a well trained dog. I would highly recommend Erik...and so would Hans 🤗

Highly recommend!! We dropped off our pup for 4 weeks of training to manage her anxiety and aggression — not only did she come back a calmer and more disciplined … More pup but happier as well! She is now fit and better trained than we could have imagined!
