Florida State K9 Academy

I've been going here for 5 months and have to it's been a great experience. Chris has taught me how to work with my dog, and my dog to obey my commands form walking, obedience, on and off the leash. Today was great making a lot of progress with his guidance. Strongly recommend for various dog traing abilities.

I highly recommend Florida State k9 academy. They are professional, knowledgeable, and truly dedicated to what they do. The training is clear and effective and you can see real progress over time.

I can’t say enough great things about Florida State K9 Academy. From start to finish, the professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care for both dogs and their owners truly stand out. The trainers are incredibly experienced and take the time to understand each dog’s behavior, tailoring their approach to get the best results. What impressed me most was the transformation in my dog—not just in obedience, but in confidence and overall behavior. Commands are clearly reinforced, and they make sure you as the owner are just as trained as your dog, which makes a huge difference long-term. The facility is clean, well-maintained, and clearly designed with the dogs’ safety and comfort in mind. Communication throughout the process was excellent, with regular updates and honest feedback. If you’re looking for real results and a team that genuinely cares, Florida State K9 Academy is the place to go. I highly recommend them to anyone serious about training their dog the right way.

Chris is down right incredible and awesome when it comes to training canines and owners. He is highly knowledgeable and very experienced. I started with Chris with my highly energetic driven, strong headed 5mo old Giant Schnauzer. He has been working with me and my dog and totally amazed of how the behavior has changed tremendously but we continue the hard work and try not to get complacent. My GS is 3 years old now and with being consistent with Chris's instructions we will make continued positive progress. My GS has calmed down a lot and enjoys continuous instructions. This is an ongoing process and hard work. Chris's encouragement is ongoing and incredible. I can't say enough great things about this trainer. It's amazing to watch him train all kinds of breeds. It's truly mind blowing. Come and see Chris at work and you too will be amazed. Thank you Chris and I look forward to keep working with you.

I can’t say enough great things about Chris and his incredible dog training skills. From the very beginning, he showed a level of patience, professionalism, and genuine care that made a huge impact—not just on my dog, Roadking, but on me as well. Chris didn’t just train my dog—he taught me how to be a better handler, communicator, and leader for Roadking. His methods are clear, effective, and always focused on building a strong, respectful bond between dog and owner. If you’re looking for a trainer who truly cares and knows what they’re doing, look no further. Chris is the real deal. I’m beyond grateful for everything he’s done for both of us!
