About Me

Real Training, Real Relationships.

I don't just teach commands — I build the bond between you and your dog so the training actually sticks. Every dog you see in these photos and videos is one I've worked with directly, right here in South Florida.

Why Frankly K9

Most Dogs Don't Need More Commands.
They Need a System.

01

First Dog? No Problem.

You don't need experience — you need a clear method. We coach you through the same 13-step protocol step by step, so you always know what to do next.

02

Already Tried Group Classes?

If a past trainer or group class didn't stick, we rebuild from the ground up — the right way, with structure that actually transfers to real life.

03

Rescue or Recently Adopted?

New rescues carry baggage you didn't create. We meet your dog where they are and build trust before we ask for obedience. Adoption discounts available.

Our Approach

The Three Pillars

Dog training isn't just commands — it's clarity, trust, and balance between you and your dog. We build calm, confident, reliable dogs through three pillars: Fundamentals, Exposure, and Consistency.

Fundamentals

Core Skills

  • Loose-leash walking
  • Sit, down, and place
  • Reliable recall
  • Threshold & doorway manners
  • Crate & house structure

Exposure

Real-World Confidence

  • Neutrality around dogs & people
  • Guided public outings
  • Engagement & counterconditioning exercises
  • Following direction under stress or excitement

Consistency

Repetition Creates Reliability

  • Daily routines & structure
  • Calm crate / place work
  • Biological fulfillment: walks, play, sniffing
  • Owners coached to maintain the system long-term

Common Questions

FAQ

Do you use e-collars on every dog?

No. E-collar conditioning is an optional add-on, only available on Standard and Advanced private packages and the Elite Off-Leash Board & Train. It's introduced in phases, only after the teaching phase, and never on entry-level packages.

My dog failed group classes or another trainer. Can you still help?

Yes — that's exactly what our Standard package is built for. We rebuild the foundation the right way, from the ground up.

Is Board & Train safe for puppies and recently adopted dogs?

Yes. Our Obedience B&T is open to all ages, including puppies and newly adopted dogs. Your dog lives and trains in a real home environment with the same structure and routines they'll have with you, plus daily video updates so you can see progress in real time.

What happens after my package ends?

Every package includes an owner education session so you can maintain the system at home. If you re-enroll within 60 days of finishing a package, you qualify for returning-client pricing. After that window, new-client pricing applies.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes, payment plans are available on Board & Train programs — ask about splitting your program into two installments during your consultation.

How much consistency do I need at home?

We give your dog 100% during training, but lasting results depend on you. Even maintaining around 60% consistency with the system at home can transform your dog's behavior and your household.
