⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Life-Changing Training for Us and Our Pup!We can’t thank Demetrious at K9 Strategies enough for the incredible work he’s done with our 6-month-old German Shepherd/Blue Heeler mix. Our pup started off extremely submissive and anxious—he would shut down easily and struggle with new situations. We were worried he’d always be unmanageable, but Demetrious knew exactly how to bring out his confid... More
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Life-Changing Training for Us and Our Pup!We can’t thank Demetrious at K9 Strategies enough for the incredible work he’s done with our 6-month-old German Shepherd/Blue Heeler mix. Our pup started off extremely submissive and anxious—he would shut down easily and struggle with new situations. We were worried he’d always be unmanageable, but Demetrious knew exactly how to bring out his confidence in a way that worked for him.But this training wasn’t just about our dog—it was about us, too. Demetrious didn’t just train our pup to be the best version of himself; he also taught us how to be the best owners for him. We’ve learned how to communicate with our dog in a way that builds trust and confidence, how to reinforce good behaviors, and how to be calm, consistent leaders. The difference in all of us has been amazing!Now, our pup is more secure, listens well, and faces new experiences with confidence instead of fear. If you’re looking for a trainer who truly understands dogs and helps owners become better for their pups, Demetrious is the one to go to. Highly recommend! Less
My baby Casper did a 180 in just the week long training he had with K9 strategies! My draw dropped when I saw that he was walking on a leash which he never done well for me! These past two weeks he loves to go on walks and is less anxious too and learning his place at home. What things may seem simple to some people have been world change for me.

My baby Casper did a 180 in just the week long training he had with K9 strategies! My draw dropped when I saw that he was walking on a leash which he never done well for me! These past two weeks he loves to go on walks and is less anxious too and learning his place at home. What things may seem simple to some people have been world change for me. It was exciting to see what was done and what to come. I'm glad he understands his role and now understanding mine too. He is a slow to new things and the patience Demetris had with him was awesome! He is also very knowledgeable in what he is doing and will take the time to teach you too! He is someone I recommend if you need someone you can trust! :) Less

I was at the end of my rope. At one point, the Denton Animal Foundation tried to help me rehome her, but not because I didn’t love her, but because I simply could not manage her. Over the years, I had tried so many different trainers, medications and techniques, and nothing worked. My dog who’s 3 1/2 yrs old has always been reactive, but over the last three years, her behavior had become so unmanageable that I couldn’t take her outside without her barking, lunging, growling and going after every person, squirrel, bird, or anything that moved. She would bark inside when someone would knock or ring my doorbell, or even the neighbors doors or doorbells. I was extremely stressed knowing that I had to take her outside, and several walks or outings would end with me in tears out of frustration. Luna spent one week with Demetrius and she came back a confident and behaved little lady. It was night and day. During our walk yesterday and today, she didn’t bark, lunge or growl at a single person, dog, or squirrel. It feels so good to be able to breathe and let go of old anxiety when I’m out with her. My neighbors have commented just one day after she’s been back home on how she isn’t barking at them a mile a minute and everyone, including myself are pretty shocked. Demetrius worked wonders and enabled both me and Luna with the skills needed to be both a confident pet and handler. If any of this resonates with you, contact K9 Strategies today! Appreciate you Demetrius! Less

K9 strategies is where it is. I brought a stubborn, insecure, fear aggressive German shepherd to Demetrius. I have had dogs my entire life but never a gsd, and never a dog who was quickly making it impossible to have guests over without fear they could be bitten. This was beyond my scope and I needed an expert to help me understand what was happening, why it was happening and how to address it. He talked to me for a couple hours before I ever committed to bringing her to him for training. He instilled the foundation to build on for her to be a non reactive and confident dog. He continues to follow up with me and check on her progress. Any questions I have he answers and gives me tips on how to tweak the work I am doing at home with her. He genuinely cares about dogs and this is his passion. I am now thinking of bringing my other dog to him at a later date, to work on some resource guarding with other dogs. He has taught me so much. I already see changes, not just with her, but the dynamic in the house with my other dogs. I 1000% recommend him for anyone that is willing to listen and wants to invest in a better home environment for you and your furry friends. I recommend him to anyone who cares about their dog but needs some guidance and is willing to do the follow through. Less

After one week she came home knowing how to sit, stay, heel and go to her place and was crate trained. Demetrius taught me how to be more comfortable in commanding Luna and was able to explain why she wasn’t seeing me as a leader. I was so overwhelmed and frustrated with Lu... More
Demetrius is a literal magician with dogs. I had a incredibly submissive but stubborn puppy who wanted to do as she pleased. After one week she came home knowing how to sit, stay, heel and go to her place and was crate trained. Demetrius taught me how to be more comfortable in commanding Luna and was able to explain why she wasn’t seeing me as a leader. I was so overwhelmed and frustrated with Luna before but now we both are enjoying each other’s presence. Less
Hands down, so happy I hired Demetrius to train my Doberman Pinscher. He did a week with DJ when he was 6 months. My dog is now 11 months old and still obedient and gets better every day because of the foundations he learned - and I learned. My dog is STUBBORN, but DJ is more stubborn! Haha and genuinely loves animals. He taught ME what my dog needed and how to have a great relationship with my d... More
Hands down, so happy I hired Demetrius to train my Doberman Pinscher. He did a week with DJ when he was 6 months. My dog is now 11 months old and still obedient and gets better every day because of the foundations he learned - and I learned. My dog is STUBBORN, but DJ is more stubborn! Haha and genuinely loves animals. He taught ME what my dog needed and how to have a great relationship with my dog. I constantly get complimented on how well behaved my dog is- and I 1000% recommend K9 Strategies to everyone I know for any dog at any stage of life. Do yourself a favor and invest in your dog, your family & start having the best time with a dog that can go anywhere because of strong obedience! Less
He have brought 3 of our family dogs and he has worked wonders with our stubborn , hard headed doggies! Highly recommend
DJ is a game changer! He trained my Frenchie, Weezy at 3 months old and taught him the basics. Weezy was a completely different puppy after just one week of DJ’s training. DJ trained him to walk properly on a leash, to heal, to sit, down, stay & place! After one week of training my little defiant Frenchie was now easier to walk verses his normal laying down in the middle of the sidewalk and knew ... More
DJ is a game changer! He trained my Frenchie, Weezy at 3 months old and taught him the basics. Weezy was a completely different puppy after just one week of DJ’s training. DJ trained him to walk properly on a leash, to heal, to sit, down, stay & place! After one week of training my little defiant Frenchie was now easier to walk verses his normal laying down in the middle of the sidewalk and knew those basic commands which changed everything!! After DJ showed me what all Weezy learned that week I was in complete awe - surely that wasn’t my puppy.. but so glad it was! Cannot say enough about the quality of training & how DJ loves what he does - he also is great about checking in with you to make sure things are still going smoothly with you & your dog. Thanks again DJ - K9 Strategies 🐶🙌🏼 Less
My big Rottweiler/Husky was a jumper, he was uncontrollable during his excited outbursts and he couldn't sit still for more than 10 seconds unless he was sleeping. He spent 7 days with K9 Strategies and he came back a dog with structure. He knows commands better than before, he walks calmly, and he knows how to sit still and just relax. K9 Strategies taught me that the dog training I did with my ... More
My big Rottweiler/Husky was a jumper, he was uncontrollable during his excited outbursts and he couldn't sit still for more than 10 seconds unless he was sleeping. He spent 7 days with K9 Strategies and he came back a dog with structure. He knows commands better than before, he walks calmly, and he knows how to sit still and just relax. K9 Strategies taught me that the dog training I did with my dog on my own was great to learn the basics but couldn't teach him the difference between right and wrong. It also taught me the proper way to teach that to my dog. I highly recommend K9 Strategies and will be back with my girlfriend's very unruly French Bulldog very soon. Less
We had a wonderful experience with K9 Strategies. Demetrius is so knowledgeable and knows exactly what he’s doing. He communicated everything that we needed to know so thoroughly before we decided to send our puppy over to him for board and train. Before the training, Milo developed severe separation anxiety which lead to constant whining and barking when he was left alone. He also used to pull u... More
We had a wonderful experience with K9 Strategies. Demetrius is so knowledgeable and knows exactly what he’s doing. He communicated everything that we needed to know so thoroughly before we decided to send our puppy over to him for board and train. Before the training, Milo developed severe separation anxiety which lead to constant whining and barking when he was left alone. He also used to pull us constantly on his leash which lead to stressful and extremely exhausting walks. Demetrius was able to transform Milo into a calm and obedient puppy in just 1 week. Upon pickup, Demetrius gave us a thorough demonstration and teaching lesson on how to handle Milo. He even checked in to make sure the transition to our home was smooth. The walks are stress-free and Milo is calm and comfortable. I highly recommend K9 strategies!!!! Less
I highly reccomend Demetrius for dog training. We adopted a one year old, 60 lbs, malinois/ lab mix from foster care. He was such a sweet boy, but has issues with manners. Mostly jumping on people, getting overly excited, jumping at the doors, and personal space. With two kids under 5, it was imperative we created some structure. After the initial week of training we have already seen vast improv... More

Mostly jumping on people, getting overly excited, jumping at the doors, and personal space. With two kids under 5, it was imperative we created some structure. After the initial week of training we have already seen vast improvements!! Demetrius is also wonderful with communication, follow up, and being a great resource for you and your pet. We couldn't reccomend more! Less
