Balanced, holistic training for Leander families, board & train, private lessons, and puppy training.

Leander families come to ATX K9 for calm, reliable results, whether your dog pulls on every walk, jumps on guests, or you've just brought home a new puppy. We offer private lessons we can bring to you and a board & train program where your dog lives and learns with our family outside Austin, spending days on our 2.5 acres and nights in their own climate-controlled crate indoors.
Our balanced, holistic approach is tailored to your dog and your goals, with lifetime support so the results stick long after training ends.

"…went from a wild thing that didn't listen and couldn't walk on a leash… Our walks are now perfect. No pulling and she checks in with me… she actually comes to me!"
"Our experience with ATX K9 was literally life changing… I researched 5 spots in and around Austin and no other business was as responsive or professional. The owners Steven and Ashley are SO friendly."
