    Our boy just graduated from Russell’s K-9 Academy and we couldn’t be happier with the results! Albert provided us with private, in-home training sessions that worked for our schedules. He is very knowledgeable and patient. We saw huge improvements in our dog after just a few sessions. We highly recommend Russell’s K-9 Academy to anyone looking for effective, professional, and personalized dog training!

    We adopted a medium size Chihuahua terrier mix two years ago and she became part of our family. She was very hard to train, ran out the front door at every opportunity, went to the bathroom inside regardless of our efforts and sometimes picked fights with our bigger dog. We hired Albert with Russell’s K9 for an intensive training in his home, he went above and beyond for us, and really cared about our dog! Our dog has now been home for two months or so and I am so happy to say that she retained the training that she received but also because our communication is much better, She is now queuing us when she needs to go outside and has not had an accident in the last month. She also walks amazingly!! Although we need to stay on her about bothering the big dog, she listens really well when we need her to calm down. We also took a roadtrip recently and she was able to be off leash and run free without us worrying about her running away. Our family is so thankful for the training we received with Russell‘s K9! Thank you Albert.

    Al did an amazing job training our extremely aggressive dog we took in as a rescue. He now walks quietly and calmly on leash, as well as we are able to work him off leash. I would highly recommend Russell's K9 Academy to anyone wanting their dog trained.

    Albert Russell assessed my dog's behavior very quickly and professionally. His opinion is excellent and he has countless years of experience dealing with dogs.

    Albert recently came to my home to work with my rescue dog, Daisy. I moved to Margaritaville where many of my new neighbors have dogs. I had a tough time meeting my new neighbors, because Daisy barked at their dogs, and they avoided me and Daisy. I wanted her to meet her new friends too, but after a few months, I called Albert. After one 3 hour session, she was not barking, but responding to his training. Daisy is a work in progress, but if I remember what he taught me, we are both enjoying our walks now. I cannot stress how much knowledge he has in his 30 plus years of dog training. My investment in helping Daisy was the best decision I have made. We are both much happier and less stressed.
