About Us

Toronto’s Premiere Canine Behavioural Experts

K9 Academy is dedicated to providing immediate results for owners looking to turn unruly pups into happy, balanced, well-behaved family members.

Our canine behaviour experts curate custom training packages to address you and your dog’s specific needs. With us you will learn to properly read your dog’s body language and behaviours to identify their state of mind and underlying motivations.

We believe that no dog is beyond help. At K9 Academy, we work extensively with dog owners and rescue centres around Ontario to help rehabilitate dogs with severe issues such as aggression and reactivity.

Check out our training programs to find out which best suits your dog’s needs.
