Testimonials – Ridgeside K9 Nashville

Name: Duke

Breed: German Shepherd

Program: Basic Obedience, Board & Train

Trainer: Danny

Our dog is better than ever

Danny worked with our dog for three weeks and the results were night and day. We got daily videos and updates that showed real, measurable progress — not just 'your dog had a great day' fluff. When we picked him up, Danny spent a full session walking us through every command, every technique, every scenario. He made sure we understood the 'why' behind everything. Six months later, we're still using what he taught us and our dog is better than ever.

Marcus T.

Name: Cooper & Millie

Breed: West Highland Terriers

Program: Puppy Program

Trainer: Zach

Our dog is better than ever

We got two Westie puppies at the same time — yes, we know, we're crazy. They were adorable and completely out of control. Zach took them for three weeks and the transformation was unreal. Leash skills, sit, place, recall — things we couldn't get them to do for months, they learned in days. Zach was patient, communicative, and genuinely cared about our dogs. We'd recommend RSK9 to anyone, no hesitation.

The Hendersons

Name: Max

Breed: Golden Retriever

Program: Basic Obedience

Trainer: Danny

Finally enjoyable walks

Max was a puller. Every walk was a struggle. After working with Danny, walks became something we actually look forward to. The transformation wasn't just about commands — it was about communication. Max listens now because he understands what we're asking. The lifetime support is real too — we've reached out a few times with questions and they always respond.

Jennifer K.

Name: Bella

Breed: Labrador

Program: Aggression & Reactivity

Trainer: Zach

From reactive to calm

Bella would lunge at every dog she saw. We couldn't take her anywhere. Zach worked with her on reactivity and the difference is incredible. She's calm around other dogs now. We can actually go to parks and trails without constant stress. The training gave us our life back.

Mike & Sarah P.

Name: Rocky

Breed: Boston Terrier (Deaf)

Program: Deaf Dog Training

Trainer: Danny

Communication breakthrough

Rocky is deaf and we thought training would be impossible. Danny showed us it's not about sound — it's about clear communication. Rocky learned hand signals for sit, stay, come, and place. He's so much happier now that he understands what we want. This changed everything for us.

Amanda R.

Name: Scout

Breed: Border Collie

Program: CGC Evaluation Prep

Trainer: Zach

Passed on the first try

We needed Scout to pass his CGC for therapy dog certification. Zach prepped him perfectly — Scout passed on the first try. The training was thorough and Zach made sure we knew how to maintain it. Highly recommend for anyone pursuing CGC.
