  • “I was looking for a dog like Charlie, and that’s not something that’s easy to find. Dogs like this don’t come around that often. Absolute Canine handled so much of the process that it made everything incredibly easy for me.”

    Client
  • “Sean completely transformed this dog from having no manners at all into a well-behaved family dog we can confidently live with, travel with, and genuinely enjoy. The result has been a happy family with a happy dog.”
    Lynn Tracey
    Client
  • “If you are looking for basic obedience, advanced training, or protection training, I truly cannot say enough good things about Sean. I would recommend him without hesitation.”
    Jen Poleman
    Client
  • “The day I picked Chance up, I honestly could not believe what I was seeing. Watching him respond both on and off leash was incredible. He looked happy, confident, and proud of himself.”
    Christine Louise
    Client
  • “It’s a very professionally run dog training school, but beyond that, you can genuinely tell they love dogs. Every time we dropped ours off, the dogs were excited to see them, and that says a lot.”
    Edward Zwilling
    Client
  • “I originally came in because I needed help with a reactive dog, but I got so much more than that. They completely changed the relationship I have with my dog, and honestly, I have never had a relationship this good with a dog before.”
    Ellen Leber
    Client
  • “The biggest thing for me was that they were honest from the beginning. There was no gimmick, no ‘bring your dog here and in two weeks everything is fixed.’ They were completely upfront that what I put into the process is what I would get out of it.”
    Melissa Schubert
    Client
  • “One of the biggest differences with Absolute Canine was that Sean didn’t just train my dog, he trained me. That completely changed the experience because I actually understood what I was doing and why.”

I feel lucky to have found such an incredible trainer for my Saint Bernard Martini. She was out of control with guests, I couldn’t walk her in public due to her over powering me when other dogs were around and to top it off she suffered from so much anxiety and disassociation she wouldn’t even make eye contact with me to even try and connect to teach her anything myself. I thought it was a lost cause after trying a puppy kindergarten and a few in home sessions with other trainers. After speaking to Amanda on the phone and sitting down with them in their beautiful property I was easily convinced to dive into a full training regimen and I’m so happy I did. Martini doesn’t leave my side. Her listening and commands are top notch now but even more importantly she’s engaging and polite and I truly feel blessed to have the connection I have with her since she completed her time with Absolute K9!

I am so thankful for Sean and Amanda. I brought my working line German Shepherd here for training many years ago after going to many other trainers before and feeling frustrated and lost with what I was learning. Both Sean and Amanda care deeply about setting you up for success with your dog. And unfortunately after we lost our dog this past year, we were able to get a dog through them and they have been there through the whole process of integrating him to our family. They bring a much different perspective of working along side your dog which made sense to me. Thanks again to the two of you and of course Jess!

I couldn’t be more thrilled to recommend Absolute K-9! From the very beginning, Amanda was incredibly supportive, patient, and knowledgeable. This was especially important for us as first-time dog owners with lots of questions. She guided us through the entire process with care and confidence, and I felt completely at ease knowing my family’s future puppy was in such capable hands. The puppy we brought home last fall has been an absolute joy. She’s sweet, social, and beautifully well-mannered—everyone who meets her falls in love. Thanks to Amanda’s early training, socialization, and careful temperament matching, she came to us already sleeping through the night in her crate, understanding key commands, easy to walk on a leash, and fully potty trained. Most importantly, the dog’s easygoing, affectionate personality is a perfect fit for my family—something I credit entirely to Amanda’s deep understanding of her dogs and her careful attention in getting to know me and my family as future owners. I’ve kept in touch with Amanda because she continues to be a generous and trusted resource. She and Sean clearly care deeply about the wellbeing of their dogs and the families they go to. I wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend Absolute K-9, Amanda and Sean, and their incredible puppies. Our experience has been nothing short of outstanding.

I could write a book with how amazing this company is! We brought our 9 week old puppy to start training with Jess. We did the 6 session package to start and she broke down piece by piece exactly how to implement the training so I could do it at home easily. She is supportive, knowledgeable, patient and an AMAZING trainer. After the first six sessions we wanted to do a board and train with them for more specific training and our puppy LOVED it there. The kennel is IMMACULATE, they offer socializing (dog to dog) for it if wanted, they even sent us videos and pictures while he was away and ALWAYS stayed in contact throughout his time there. Everyone at that facility is professional, knowledgeable and so supportive. We honestly don’t ever plan on stopping the training because they even offer “day school” where they get training sessions and dog on dog play time with their own well socialized dogs. Our puppy is six months now and people are blown away with how obedient, well socialized and “easy” he is and it is 100% a direct result of the time, patience, experience, and love for this company and the trainer’s. We are forever clients!!!!!

Cannot say enough good things about Sean and Amanda at Absolute Canine! They are equipped in every way to take your dog in like their own and give them (and you!) the foundational skills and training needed to have a happy balanced well rounded dog. The on leash and off leash training we did with AC was worth every single penny. Get ready for everyone to comment with envy the dog delivered back to you by Sean and Amanda. The results were unbelievable and we think our Lucy is a happier dog having gone thru their program!

I am beyond thrilled with my experience at AbsoluteK9! I brought home a healthy and incredibly joyful puppy who received outstanding boarding and training services from Amanda and Sean. They went above and beyond to customize the training to ensure my puppy would become a happy, well-behaved companion. Their training program included both on-leash and off-leash exercises, and I’m amazed by my puppy’s ability to switch effortlessly from playful energy to instant obedience. The peace of mind that comes from knowing my puppy will reliably respond to commands is truly priceless. Thanks to AbsoluteK9, both my puppy and I have grown into confident, cheerful companions. I couldn’t be more grateful for the empowerment and joy they’ve brought into our lives! Highly recommended.

  • What happens in the free evaluation?

    We meet your dog, discuss goals/challenges, assess fit, and recommend the right program with clear next steps and timeline.
  • What training approach do you use?

    Balanced, humane, operant-based training with a clear marker system—rewarding what we want and fairly interrupting what we don’t.
  • Do you use tools like prong or e-collars?

    Only when appropriate for the dog and goals, and always with owner consent and coaching. Tools are introduced thoughtfully and phased as skills grow.
  • Do you work with reactivity or aggression?

    Yes—case by case. We start with safety and management, set realistic milestones, and progress as your dog is ready.
  • Will my dog forget me during a board & train?

    No. Your bond isn’t replaced. We include owner transfer sessions and a maintenance plan so behaviors stick at home.
  • What skills do you teach?

    Engagement, heel/loose-leash, sit/down/stay, place, recall, calm greetings, and household manners; advanced tracks add off-leash reliability.
  • How do you choose between private lessons, day school, and board & train?

    After the evaluation we match your goals, schedule, and your dog’s temperament to the program that delivers reliable results fastest.
  • When can we start training (puppies/adults)?

    Puppies can begin foundations as soon as they’re home and cleared by your vet; adult dogs can start anytime after evaluation.
  • What’s included after training?

    Owner transfer coaching, a written maintenance plan, and access to follow-up support or refreshers as needed.
  • How is pricing handled?

    We share pricing after the evaluation along with a tailored plan—no surprise add-ons. We’ll outline deposits, schedule, and next steps in writing.
