Sammie was absolutely amazing with our black lab Oso! We will continue to board oso with proven k9 simply because of her.

Sammie was absolutely amazing with our black lab Oso! We will continue to board oso with proven k9 simply because of her. I was nervous about the four week boarding program because it requires a lot of trust and I didn’t want him to be over corrected. Sammie was the perfect mix of stern and loving and oso came home happy, loved, and obedient. Our major issues were his barking, he was SO hyper and had a very short attention span. None of that was an issue after the four weeks and he still had his goofball personality which I was nervous would be gone. The one on one training session with Sammie is what really gave us the tools to keep oso consistent and I am so grateful for the effort and care Sammie provided Oso. Less

Always great service at Proven K9. The trainers are top notch. Laurence is very passionate and really knows his stuff. I’m so impressed by the amount of things he taught our doodle in just two weeks.

My pit/dachshund mix, Penny, completed the 4-week board and train program with Sammie a couple months ago. We had the best experience with her and the whole team. They are truly passionate about what they do and treat their pups like their own family. Penny left with so much confidence, new tricks, and some much needed coping skills. Sammie is truly a miracle worker and is not afraid of a challenge. She is incredibly patient and takes the time to learn the personality / needs of each dog she trains. Since the 4-week program ended, I have boarded Penny once and she was so excited to be back there and to see everyone that loved and cared for her for 4 weeks. If you are looking for training for your pup, definitely check this place out and ask for Sammie! Less

Wonderful place that really cares about dogs! They have provided great communication and regular feedback about our fur-babies in the board & train program. I would highly recommend.

Our fur baby Buster just completed his 2 week board and train stay at Proven K9 with Sammie his trainer! Sammie sealed the deal upon meeting to tour the facility as we could tell she was passionate about what she does! During the tour she walked us around- everything was clean and well maintained. We were impressed by the simulation stations of a “kitchen”and “living room” etc. She explained what commands they teach and she even demonstrated “place” with us and our fur baby at the end of the tour. We instantly could tell how well she worked with him and we knew she was the right trainer. Fast forward, during training she sent us emails with updates and pictures - which was so nice on days when we missed Buster! Then at the end of the 2 week training we went and practiced his commands with him as she was observing and teaching us and that really made for a smooth transition back home! Sammie really is doing her calling. 100/10 recommend Proven K9. Just knowing that Sammie cares about our Buster as much as we do and having her as a lifeline the rest of his life gives my husband and I confidence that any areas he needs help with she can help us know how to communicate with him and that is irreplaceable! Thank you so much, Sammie and Proven K9 for loving and teaching our good boy, Buster aka Mr. Sweetface (as Sammie would call him) ❤️ Less

I did the 2 week board and training program for my 6 almost 7 year old GSD/Malinois- dog reactive, disobedient on walks, and was just overall anxious/scared to take him out in public as I didn’t trust him around other dogs. After completing his 2 weeks there, Sammie (his trainer) was able to successfully have him walk next to another dog and have strangers greet him. Something I’d never thought he’d be able to do! She also had him brush up on his commands (sit, down, place, leave it) and also work on his door manners. Overall, I was really impressed with the work Sammie did with Oakley. She was an amazing person and even gifted us her OWN slip lead to Oakley so that I can continue to train him as best I could with something that she knows already works really well with him!! She ended up bonding with my dog in such a short amount of time and I can tell she really cares for the dogs she trains and is passionate about her work. Thank you Sammie and the Proven K9 Team! Less

Highly recommended! Proven Dog Training transformed my dog's behavior. A fantastic experience!
Wonderful trainers! Did everything thing they said they would and worked hard with my stubborn corgi! I felt 💯 comfortable leaving them in there care knowing fully that Sammie was going to not only work hard with them but also make sure they where happy and safe!
Our 3 dogs completed training. Amazing results. We had to travel so we used Proven K9 for kennels. It is a 45 minute drive to get there. The cost is the same as our local kennel. It’s worth the drive. You can tell how much love they have for the dogs. A great perk after training.
Great establishment. Customer service is wonderful. Treats animals like they are thier own. So happy I found them.
The owner and everyone is so understanding! I could not have asked for more!!!
I took my heeler Cleo to their two week boarding class and she came out a rock star! So smart and loved the training, she took to her trainers so quickly. They really focus on building confidence and reinforce good behavior instead of punishing poor behavior. Would recommend it to anyone having issues!
I love Amazon! I can find anything and everything and it comes to my door! What else do you need?
JJ was amazing! I felt like not only that I walked away with the skills to train my dog but also the confidence to continue what was also taught to him! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
The team at Proven K9 is professional, extremely knowledgeable and always feel like they’re a part of our K9 family. Max has been through training and the occasional boarding, and always seems to feel comfortable when there. We’re fortunate we found them. Thank you!
Excellent training, communication, and teaching for the owner and pet. My anxious, and occasionally aggressive Australian Shepherd has been a leash-free obedient and fun guy every since
I took my dog here for training and they are amazing. I appreciate the time Proven K9 takes with my furbaby and all the services they provide. Thank you so much.

I have used Proven K9 to train both of my high energy German Shepard’s . Both were wild and crazy when I got them . I met Proven K9 at a farm show and listened to their speech all week . I asked if they could fix my dogs and JJ responded with a positive YES ! I took the first girl Izzy for the 2 week board and train to them in Amarillo from Dallas . She turned out so good it convinced me I could have a mate for her as well . Then we got our Luna and she was twice as wild as Izzy ! I promptly signed her up with Proven K9 in their new DFW facility. We got the exact same results ! I have two of the best dogs anyone could ask for . We use the e collar system and never have to buzz these dogs . They react to all of our commands and place on their own . We often have people drive by and literally stop to tell us how well behaved our dogs are . We get compliments every time someone watches our dogs . Proven K9 IS the real deal ! I’m a tough customer and they have their program down pat . Shoot ! I’m looking for another dog ! You will never regret the return on your investment you get with this group !! Best money you will ever spend if you really ant to enjoy and understand your animal . I’m a fan for life !! TRY THEM OUT ! William Bennett Less
Fantastic people. They have done a great job with my very anxious dog. They are also great with continued support and boarding as well.

Helped us greatly in training both us and our new puppy. Thanks!😃
They helped me get my dog from being very dog reactive to him seeing a dog and ignoring them.
Was a great experience training my dog here. He learned a lot and they specifically focused on aggression which I’ve seen major changes. They taught him commands which he still obeys even 2 years later. Will definitely use them again when I get another dog.
They were great with our 2 dogs! My dogs listen to me and easier to have in public
From first contact to getting our dog scheduled for board and train to drop off and now our dog's first week in the program, Proven K9 has been top notch to work with. Everyone is super friendly, helpful, and they truly care about the animals they are training. Sammie has been incredible with sending updates and progress reports in our first week!

Excellent training facility and they took great care of our dog. Would not hesitate recommending them to anyone interested. Five stars all the way.
They not only taught the dog but they taught us about boundaries and how to meet her needs. Malinois are smart but stubborn, she’s a better dog & we’re better dog owners thanks to JJ & his crew. Highly recommend
The girls really cared and invested in our dog. They also continued her training while boarding.
Excellent communication, care and training for Astro Tony!
Simply the best in all ways!!

I will always recommend Proven. My girl was taught to do things that I didn’t ever think she would learn. The facility is super clean and cool. Big thank you to Zaidee for training Imani!!!!

The trainers at Proven K9 Training are awesome! They went above and beyond in grooming my dog while he was in boarding school, buying him treats and food when he didn’t feel like eating the food I brought. Ask for Sammie, she was my dog’s trainer and she took excellent care of him while he learned how to be a good boy.
Love Proven K9! Our pup has done the board and train and when we go out of town she stays with Proven K9 Boarding.

The entire staff is so nice and professional, they helped accommodate me in every way I needed. The facility is clean and well kept with the equipment needed to train all manners of dogs. Our personal trainer Sammie was really the best part of our experience! She was very responsive with photos or videos if we were missing our pup, and she also provided us with detailed emails including what our dog was learning, and the instructions for us on how to maintain that training when she came home. She asked us our specific needs/concerns and applied them in training to be sure problem areas were addressed. I have seen so much improvement in her obedience but also her demeanor, overall she is calmer in the home and able to settle herself faster. I also feel so much more assured in myself to tackle issues as they arise and message Sammie for help if needed (the lifetime support is truly a Godsend), I know she will always get back to me quickly! Sammie put so much compassion and love into training our girl, it made the transition of missing her for those couple weeks so much easier. Thank you Sammie and Proven K9 for helping make our good girl even better :) Less

We cannot recommend them highly enough for dog training! Our 2 year old male goldendoodle Chewie went through in house training, group training, and a different board and train and we just weren't getting the results we wanted. Chewie was stubborn and not listening consistently. We weren't even sure we wanted to do any more training because we had already sunk so much into it without getting us what we want. We finally decided we needed one more try, and we are so glad we did! We were able to come see the facility and ask all the questions we wanted to, and our trainer Emily took such good care of our dog. We got regular updates, pictures, and videos and no other trainers we have used or talked to were anywhere near as communicative. And now Chewie can be categorically called a good boy. He listens, he's calmer, especially around our toddler, and it's so much less stressful for us. We can finally trust our dog in ways we never through were possible. If you're looking for a board and train that's definitely worth every penny, look no further! Less

Coming from out of state the communication and updates made it easier not having my bestie with me 24/7 but I knew she was in great hands. Stella came to Sammie like a nervous nelly, shy around everyone and every little thing; She boosted her confidence like crazy! I can socialize Stella where she would give me a hard time handling and doesn’t run and hide behind me anymore! Stella blew my mind walking in with major confidence! 😍 Sammie enhanced her obedience I couldn’t even believe it with my own eyes that was my pup! Her door manners are impeccable! With just 1 day of implementing everything I’ve used- I’m taking her EVERYWHERE with me! I couldn’t be happier with Stellas results!! 🤩 I was the one skeptical about using the e-collar but Sammie took her time and explained everything in such detail. Sammie honestly dedicates so much passion into what she does and it truly shows.♥️ Stella and I are so grateful to have met and made another friend and I can’t wait to keep implementing for life everything Sammie has taught me! I truly can’t thank Sammie and Proven K9 enough! I will definitely be using Proven K9 with my other pup! 100/10 recommend Sammie! Thank you Proven K9 DFW!!!🙏🐾 Less
It works!! We love being able to go to dog parks, farmers markets, home depot, and outdoor events with nothing to worry about. People always compliment us on how well our dog listens and obeys. Now our dog feels more a part of the family because he can go everywhere with us!

I can not say enough wonderful things about the training my dog received! Such a wonderful experience! I was nervous to let my dog off leash last month at this time, here is AnnieBelle today. Happy, Healthy and Confident! Thank You to her trainer, Kailyn, and all the staff at Proven K9 Training.
I cannot say enough positive things about Proven K-9 and their lead trainer, Darby. My border collie mix puppy (1 1/2 years old) was having trouble listening, anxiety, and had an incident attacking another dog at the dog park. I thought she was going to need a behavioral board and train. I toured several facilities where my puppy clearly did not want to be there. She shook, hid behind me, and cri... More
I cannot say enough positive things about Proven K-9 and their lead trainer, Darby. My border collie mix puppy (1 1/2 years old) was having trouble listening, anxiety, and had an incident attacking another dog at the dog park. I thought she was going to need a behavioral board and train. I toured several facilities where my puppy clearly did not want to be there. She shook, hid behind me, and cried while we walked around. On a last ditch effort, we came and toured Proven K-9 and met with Darby, who would be Nala’s trainer. Nala walked right in, sniffed around, and even went to say hi to Darby. The other training facilities that I toured, acted like they were trying to sell me a product. Darby made me feel comfortable and was honest about what they do. From the very beginning, there was clear communication going on. I was having more separation anxiety than she was. Darby constantly was in communication with me. Every single question that was asked, she had an answer for. They update you ever two days, but I texted Darby everyday and got a response on how Nala was doing. She loved my dog like it was her own and I couldn’t have asked for anything more. She came home a different dog. She doesn’t need a harness now because she automatically heels. She listens to commands. She is so confident in herself and us as owners, and that is all thanks to Darby. It was so stressful to take her anywhere. Now, it is a breeze and I trust Nala in how she is going to behave. Darby was exactly what Nala needed, which was a mixture of love and guidance. She never pushed her past what she could handle and ended some of her sessions early because she was starting to get overwhelmed and stressed. She taught me so much about my own dog that I didn’t understand before. I would do it 100 times over knowing what I know now. We will definitely be back with the next puppy and Nala will be back to spend more time with her new best friend, Darby. Less
Kaylin took our chaotic, rambunctious year old chocolate lab T-Bone, and worked a miracle. We’re preparing to bring our first child home from NICU, and were extremely worried about T-Bone jumping up, having self control, and understanding when the right and wrong times were.

Kaylin took our chaotic, rambunctious year old chocolate lab T-Bone, and worked a miracle. We’re preparing to bring our first child home from NICU, and were extremely worried about T-Bone jumping up, having self control, and understanding when the right and wrong times were. Kaylin introduced us to a completely different T-Bone after just two weeks, one that is under control and now has a rock solid obedience foundation. We couldn’t recommend Kaylin and Proven more. We loved the updates every day or two, and that she tailored his whole program around a baby joining the family and our lifestyle. Thank you so much Kaylin and Proven, we couldn’t recommend you more!

I sent my two pomeranians to proven K9 training mainly for anxiety and excessive barking. I did the two week board and train program and I will tell you, I see a massive improvement after shortly getting them home. Darby and Kaylin were excellent not only in helping my dogs, but helping me understand what I need to do to ensure success at home. What I really appreciated even more is that they wil... More
I sent my two pomeranians to proven K9 training mainly for anxiety and excessive barking. I did the two week board and train program and I will tell you, I see a massive improvement after shortly getting them home. Darby and Kaylin were excellent not only in helping my dogs, but helping me understand what I need to do to ensure success at home. What I really appreciated even more is that they will not send a dog home if they don’t feel they are ready. So if the dogs need a little extra, they do it. I know this will still continue to be work for me and them at home, however I have no doubt that Proven K9 training has set us up for success. I would definitely recommend them, and their program if your dog is just needing to learn basic skills, has anxiety, or even if they are aggressive - they can tackle it all! Less
