Central Florida K9

Don’t hesitate picking this place to train your dogs I recommend this place to absolutely everyone my two dogs came out almost completely different dogs

I cannot put it into words how fantastic Central Florida K-9 is and the respect and time they put into their training. We set our 2 rescue dogs (Dexter and Bentley) to them for the board and train program and we’re beyond pleased with the results. Rina and Warren treated our dogs as if they were their own. They were patient and loving to our 2 boys and the effective training really showed. They are very good at communicating how the dogs progressed through the training. Our youngest needed a little extra help and they were more than happy to keep him for some extra time to make sure he was at the level any dog owner would be proud of. We got constant updates which includes cute pictures and videos of their new skills. Their behavior and confidence is night and day and very easy to keep up with the training at home. I would highly recommend Rina, Warren, and the rest of the Central Florida K-9 team to any dog owner.

Pulling on leashes, aggression and misbehavior at home are a thing of the past!

Thank you guys so much! Dexter and Bentley are forever grateful.

We took our puppy Sam to the Puppy Training program. Sarah & Jenn were Sam's trainers and they were both excellent! Sam learned a lot of basic commands as well as developed a solid framework that we could then use at home with him. Sarah & Jenn sent us updates daily and kept us in the loop with him the entire time he was there. Great people & facility!

I have an 8 month old German Shephard who we thought was aggressive. Turns out she was reactive and had fear issues. Jen and
Sara did an amazing job with her. She did the board and train for 21 days and what a difference!
I can walk her, take her to stores and hiking. We couldn’t do that before! I highly recommend CFK9
We are planning another board and train while on vacation in a few weeks
We also have been to the parkour classes and she loves it.

If you’re looking for training look no further We did a board and train for both Zoey and Bella and let me tell you Sara and Jenn did an awesome job if anyone looking for training of any type they offer it They treat your fur babies like family I am so thankful for their help and we definitely we be doing more advance training. Sara and Jenn is Absolutely the best!

We have been taking our puppy Stella to Central Florida K9’s Group classes and we could not be happier with the quality of training and instruction we have received from both Sarah and Jenn. Along with their new facility; Central Florida K9 is the place to go!

Awesome new facility! Easy to get to from the Orlando area. Easy drive on the 429 extension got me right there in no time. The staff is very knowledgeable and great with the animals. Highly recommend Central Florida K-9 for all your training needs.

I brought my 2 year old German Shepherd, who had no previous education whatsoever, here to Rina for a board and train program. I am absolutely astounded at his transformation in just a few short weeks!

Very friendly staff and knowledgeable in puppy training! We learned so much about handling our puppies with them - well worth the money to do the training class.

Brought my Mali here so he could walk on leash better around people. He was already in protection work sit, stay, come back etc.he learned nothing. Came home skinny as a rail. Still doing same thing. He was scared of us when we picked him up. Nothing came out of this but 6 weeks of missing my dog and 2,000 dollars in their pocket.

I have a mini aussie who is very reactive to people and other dogs. She stayed for 30 days and came out like such a great well behaved baby.
Rina worked with her and we are very please in how well she listens now. Looking forward to continue working with my baby

Our dog Zoey, just completed a 20 day therapy dog program with Melissa. We truly couldn't be any happier with the progress she made in 20 days and are amazed at the confident, well mannered, happy dog we got back. Zoey had basic obedience going into the program, but Melissa got her to a level of obedience we never imagined she was capable of. We can't recommend Melissa and Central Florida K9 enough and are excited to continue working with them as Zoey completes her Therapy Certification.

I’ve been taking my German Shepard, Harley to Central Florida K9 since she was about 5 months old. We’ve done puppy and advanced training with great results. Day care and boarding are the best, too! Harley can’t wait to get there and is worn out when I pick her up. Highly recommend to anyone!

Rina, three words for you. You are amazing!
My husband and I were in shock of how well our dog (Milo 5 yrs Male) became after 30+ days of Rina’s boot camp training by Central Florida K9. I reviewed many programs and spoke with a few different trainers in my town before choosing Central Florida K9. For the last five years, my dog’s behaviors have been all wrong because we were doing everything wrong. After five years of nightmare with Milo, we start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel because of Rina and Central Florida K9 team. He was a tough dog to train, but, Rina gave him an unconditional love for Milo gave us HOPE. At the facility, in the beginning, Milo didn’t care about anything and hated everything because, of course, “he was not in his comfy zone. ” But Rena never gave up on him and after 10 long days of patience and love by Rina and she tried many different tactics, Milo finally changed his behavior then, their fun training started right after that. That’s “Rina’s way” right there, everyone!
After his boot camp was over, Rina was still with us and supported us all the way. We went on the field trip altogether, and she made sure we feel comfortable with everything.
We are planning to bring him back every once a while to use their Kennel service since he needs “consistent” training and evaluations by wonderful Central Florida K9 Team!
Thank you so much for EVERYTHING, Rina and Team! LOVE you guys!

I have to say that I am beyond thankful for central Fl k9 and mainly with our trainer Rina! Words cannot describe our gratitude towards the amazing job she did for our dog Parker. So when we decided to take Parker for training we were not even sure that he was trainable and we were desperate to find a place that was able to take him. Parker is a rescued Pitbull that had a rough start in life. My brother in law couldn’t keep Parker and we decided to open our home and heart to him. We have another dog so when they met they loved each other instantly. However, after couple months of being with us, Parker developed aggressive behaviors and it was getting out of control. We didn’t know what to do and we almost took him back to the shelter but in my heart I knew I couldn’t do that because due to his aggressive behaviors he was not going to be safe in a shelter. After searching for a good trainer I came along with central Fl K9 and after reading all the reviews I called them and specifically asked for Rina. We met and Parker was barking, pulling the leash (which was one of the many problems when taking him for a walk), growling, you name it. After the consultation Rina said that he was trainable and to give him a chance. We took a leap of faith and decided to go along with the behavioral training. Parker was in the facility for almost 2 months and it’s been a week since we took him back home and let me tell you what a difference like WOWWWWWW! WHAT A DIFFERENCE
Barking and wanting to eat everything and everyone that was in his way: NO MORE
Puling the leash and choking himself: NO MORE
Rina and Warren have done an AMAZING JOB WITH Parker and he has definitely come A LONG WAY! We are now learning how to keep up with the amazing job they have done to continue to build Parker’s confidence.
Thank you

Since our pooch has gone to Central Florida K9 he has been a different puppy. I really appreciate the communication and training for both puppy and owners.
Thank you for training our puppy.
All trains are by far the best. Very knowledgeable.

I first want to start off by saying that every interaction I have had with the staff here have been great. They have been tremendously helpful throughout this entire process.

My rescue dog Ivar did a board and train program with Rina for 25 days. When we first dropped him off he failed to listen to commands and was dog aggressive. I was continuously updated on his journey through this program.

My biggest concern with this program was losing the personality that my dog had because he is the biggest goofball. It was amazing to see the difference in my dog as soon as he got home. He still has his personality but is much more confident in who he is and is so much more tolerable to handle. We still have things to work on with Ivar and that information was passed on in a convenient way.

I have so much admiration for the team here and I would highly recommend this facility to anyone who is looking for any training program.

My 21 month old Doberman was ruling the roost at home. I realized she needed professional training and searched the internet for training facilities. After phoning several facilities, I chose Central Florida K-9. After meeting with Rina and touring the facility, I was sold. It was determined that Frida required 30 days of training. It took several weeks before a spot was available. The day finally came and through many tears, I turned Frida over to Rina.
As hard as it was to leave her, I knew in my spirit that I had made the right decision. Rina kept me updated through texts and videos of Frida’s progress.

Fast forward 30 days to being reunited with Frida. My goodness, she is a different dog! Rina has taken a pushy, hard headed and anxious dog to a confident, hard working one. I cannot say enough about the wonders that Rina worked on Frida!

I would recommend Central Florida K-9 to anyone who needs help in training and socializing their fur baby. I can’t thank Rina enough for the hard work she put into making Frida the dog she is today!

We took our German Shepherd, Crixus, to CFK9, as he was very aggressive (fear and territorial). For context, he was quarantined when he was six months old due to a bad infection. After months in quarantine, he was territorial and aggressive, he would lunge and try to bite dogs, as well as growling and lunging at people. We were heartbroken, especially since no trainer would work with him, stating that he was too aggressive. While we tried to manage ourselves, he became worse, primarily with other dogs and territorial aggression. After consulting with CFK9, they immediately stated that they would take him. The team was amazing, outlining the expectations and progress that would likely be made while he was away. After forty days, we got Crixus back, and his progress was AMAZING! He not only improved his obedience (sit, heel, leave it), but his socialization with people was completely different. He went to Target with my husband and I and was able to walk through the store with no issues; he also allowed people to come up to him and pet him, something he never would have done before. Rina was great in telling us the realistic outcomes of his behavior; therefore, while he may never like other dogs, he can make progress to overcome his fear and not attack. After we got him back, he met an aggressive dog, but through his obedience, he was able to leave the dog alone, and immediately go back to his walk with little issue. Overall, he has come a long way, and his socialization is a complete 180, especially with humans. The process, while long, was great, as the team frequently updated us on his progress with videos and photographs. So happy with his progress!

Central Florida K-9 is amazing. They have professional trainers that understand dogs at the highest level and truly care for their well being. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my dog.
