  We tried several trainers but none understood and respected our dog like Brian. He has succeeded training our dog and us in a way that was simple, painless and effective. Our Bernedoodle is now a pleasure to be around. We highly recommend Brian and VACAY9.

  Vacay 9 has had such a positive impact on my two 14 month old puppies May and Angel. Brian approaches training with a great deal of love and commitment to each dog’s wellbeing. He was very patient in trying to understand my concerns as an owner and developing a plan to help us succeed. I highly recommend Vacay 9 for anyone looking for a better relationship with their fur babies.

  We have a 2 year, very large, Shepard/Huskey (Asher). We were having LOTS of behavioral issues with him. We just couldn't get him to listen. We were referred by a friend to Vaycay 9. We opted for the 3 week training program. Brian has worked wonders with Asher, and he is teaching us how to be better dog parents. Asher responds really well to Brian and loves going there. We are still working together to make Asher the best dog he can be, as he is quite stubborn and opinionated... lol. We are very happy to be on this journey with Vaycay 9. Thanks for your kindness and patience with our big boy!

  I have a 4 month old German Shepherd that I just completed the 3 Week Board and train program. Brian is absolutely phenomenal with Maverick and he's NIGHT AND DAY different compared to before the course. We just had our first follow up training session and Maverick is absolutely crushing it. Would recommend Vacay 9 to ANYONE needing their dog trained. I fully plan to book additional courses available from Vacay 9. They treat you like family from the minute you walk in the door and offer PURE EXCELLENCE as far as training goes even for a young pup ! Can't wait to continue and 1000% is the best money ever spent (other than getting Maverick of course HAHA). There aren't enough words to describe how happy I am with the results and it's only going up from here!

  Vacay9 was a Godsend. When I got my little Buddy he had no training and was big dig aggressive. Vacay9 got him totally trained and he is no longer big dog aggressive. They even taught him a few fun tricks that he can show off with. He's always the hit of a gathering. Thanks vacay9 you taught Buddy how to be his best self. And you taught me how to be his best pack leader!!
