EXCELLENT Based on 292 reviews Posted on Karen SteeleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great experience with dog trainer Brendan! He's very knowledgeable on training! Firm yet gentle with commands. He really made me feel like he genuinely loved my dog and wants him to be the best version of his dog-self! Well worth the money, but understand that homework (practice) needs to be done for 100% success! And I love that part of our last class we spent learning a few fun tricks...rollover & sit pretty! Thanks so much Brendan & K9s!Posted on Emily BeaneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Super friendly and professional!Posted on StephanieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. K9s Place completely changed our lives in just 5 days. My 3-year-old mini schnauzer is adorable, but he was very reactive toward people and other dogs, which made walks stressful. I used to dread taking him out and would cross the street anytime I saw another person walking their dog. Now he is well behaved around people and so much better around other dogs. Walks are now enjoyable and I feel so much more relaxed and confident with him. The trainers were patient and knowledgeable. I highly recommend K9s Place to anyone dealing with reactivity or behavior issues. Thank you guys!Posted on Leah CaruthersTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I took our 7-month-old puppy, Otis, to this facility for their five-day board and train as well as utilizing their “Spaw” services. To say we are impressed is an understatement. Otis is a very happy puppy and wants to greet absolutely everyone (people and other animals alike) when outside to either walk or use the bathroom. We love that he is so friendly but we were worried sick that one day he might approach an animal or person that may not be so friendly or forgiving. Five days after his program, we are happy to report that he has calmed down significantly when in public and listens to us much better than he used to. His trainer worked with him on everything we asked, even using his own vehicle to help Otis practice getting in and out of the car safely. After his training, we took him to their “Spaw” for grooming and were equally impressed with this service. His fur is the softest it’s ever felt although he usually is very nervous after getting groomed, he showed no signs of anxiety when we picked him up. We are so lucky to have found this facility and trust all the staff with Otis completely. We can’t wait to continue to bring our sweet boy here. Thank you K9’s Place!Posted on Rosan GonzalezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I found this place online, and I don't regret taking my Cane Corso to obedience classes for a week. My baby is a completely different dog after those classes. He follows simple commands, I can take him to public places to continue his socialization, and he does an incredible job. This is all thanks to the trainers at K9 Place. Thanks, guys, for the excellent work!Posted on AstaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. K9 Place in Melbourne, FL is hands down the best place in the area. I have a senior diabetic dog with Cushing’s, and it was very hard to find someone willing to help. I called in many vet, dog daycare and boarding places and even called a clinic in Orlando, and they refused to take him. K9 Place was completely different — they were kind, flexible, professional, and truly cared about my dog. They worked with my drop-off and pick-up times, and I could tell right away that they love animals and understand what pet owners go through. If you want a place that is caring, reliable, and puts dogs first, K9 Place is the one. I’m very grateful for them and highly recommend them to anyone in the area.Posted on Clay PilkingtonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My dog is 8.5 years old, and was extremely reactive toward other dogs to the point where I couldn’t take him anywhere and only on short, stressful walks hoping we wouldn’t come across any other dogs. After 2 weeks board and train, now we are going on pack walks and bonding more than ever, training was worth it!! Very thankful for K9’s placePosted on Cynthia JacksonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My dog is now a pleasure to walk. This place is incredible!Posted on Dana PomerantzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very friendly and knowledgeable. Going to try out the Board and Train with the newest rescue member of our family, 9 month old Phoenix (Feny) a Grate Dane/Lab mix. She was already learning before we even left the evaluation. Feny was comfortable with the surroundings the entire time we were there. Looking forward to great training!Posted on Mike HoranTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had the pleasure of bringing my dog Andy to K9 place for a two week board and train. My dog had problems with walking with the leash and he would pull me. He also was not real good around other people and other dogs. After 2 weeks with all the great trainers and staff he is like another dog. I would highly recommend this great place.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

What Makes E-Collar Training the Key to Off-Leash Success?
E-collar training is an advanced technique that uses an electronic collar to communicate with your dog. The collar delivers a slight, adjustable stimulation, gently reminding your dog when they are not responding to your verbal cues. This method allows for precise communication, particularly when you’re in situations where you’re unable to use a leash, such as when your dog is off-leash or in a distracting environment.
The key advantage of E-collar training is its ability to work over long distances. While verbal commands or traditional training methods might be effective when your dog is right next to you, they often fall short when distractions, distance, or even excitement are in play. The E-collar ensures that your dog’s attention remains focused on you, no matter the environment.
At K9s Place, we use humane, low-level stimulation tailored to your dog’s sensitivity and response. This technique is not about punishment—it’s about reinforcing good behavior, making it easier for you and your dog to enjoy freedom and control.
E-Collar Training: The Secret to Clear and Consistent Commands
E-collar training is one of the most effective methods for ensuring your dog listens to commands reliably, even when distracted or off-leash. Here’s why it works:
- Clear and Immediate Feedback
- Dogs respond best when they receive immediate feedback. E-collars allow instant communication, so your dog knows exactly what behavior is being corrected and what behavior is being rewarded. This immediate cause-and-effect response accelerates the learning process.
- Consistency Across Different Environments
- When training with a leash or verbal commands alone, your dog may respond well in quiet environments but struggle in more distracting settings. E-collar training ensures that your dog can follow commands anywhere—from a busy park in Melbourne to the wide-open spaces of Rockledge. The collar works reliably in all environments, providing the same level of communication no matter the location.
- Improved Attention in High-Distraction Situations
- Distractions are everywhere, whether at the dog park, on a hike, or enjoying a day at the beach. The E-collar helps maintain your dog’s focus on you, even when they’re surrounded by other dogs, people, or exciting smells. This heightened focus leads to faster and more effective training results.
- Reliable Off-Leash Control
- The main goal of E-collar training is to give you reliable off-leash obedience. Whether calling your dog back to you when they wander too far, ensuring they stay by your side when asked, or simply getting them to focus when needed, the E-collar gives you the control you need for ultimate freedom. This training allows for more enjoyable outings, knowing your dog will respond no matter the situation.

From Leash to Freedom: How E-Collar Training Transforms Your Dog
E-collar training brings a wide range of benefits for both you and your dog. The effectiveness of this method can significantly improve your relationship with your dog, leading to fewer frustrations and more enjoyable experiences together.
- Improved Communication
- One of the biggest challenges in training is ensuring that you and your dog are on the same page. With E-collar training, your dog learns to associate the stimulation with a specific command, helping to create clear communication. This means fewer misunderstandings and a quicker learning curve.
- Freedom and Flexibility
- With E-collar training, your dog can enjoy the freedom of off-leash activities without compromising safety or control. You won’t have to worry about your dog running off, ignoring your calls, or engaging in unwanted behaviors. Whether you’re in Rockledge’s parks or exploring Melbourne’s coastline, you can trust that your dog will respond to you, making every outing more enjoyable.
- Greater Safety
- Imagine the peace of mind knowing your dog will reliably return to you when called, even in wide-open spaces. E-collar training ensures your dog’s safety, reducing your stress and giving you more freedom on walks, hikes, and outings. They’ll be less likely to run into traffic, chase wildlife, or ignore your calls in an unfamiliar environment.
- Building Trust and Confidence
- When dogs understand that their actions lead to consistent results, they gain confidence and trust in their training. E-collar training helps reinforce this trust, as your dog will learn that they are being guided toward positive behaviors. This builds a stronger bond between you and your dog as they learn to trust you as a leader.
- Less Stress for You
- Having reliable off-leash control means less stress for you as a dog owner. You won’t need to worry about constantly pulling on a leash, chasing after your dog, or dealing with frustrating behavior. With E-collar training, you can relax and enjoy activities with your dog, knowing they will respond when called.

At K9s Place, we use a customized approach to E-collar training that ensures the best possible results for you and your dog. We understand that every dog is unique and tailor the training program to suit their needs, temperament, and behavior.
Here’s how the training process works at K9s Place:
- Initial Evaluation
- We begin with an evaluation of your dog’s current obedience level, temperament, and behavior. This helps us understand your dog’s needs and how best to proceed with the training. Whether your dog is a puppy or an adult, we’ll assess their needs to create a training plan that’s just right for them.
- Introduction to the E-Collar
- We introduce the E-collar gently and gradually, ensuring that your dog is comfortable wearing it. Our trainers will work closely with your dog, using positive reinforcement alongside the collar to create a strong association with good behavior. We’ll ensure that the stimulation is set at the right level for your dog’s needs, keeping their comfort in mind.
- Training Sessions and Real-World Application
- Once the E-collar is introduced, we begin a series of training sessions designed to teach your dog to respond reliably to commands. We’ll use various settings—controlled environments and real-world scenarios—to teach your dog how to behave in different situations. This includes everything from basic commands to off-leash recall and walking.
- Follow-Up Support
- At K9s Place, we don’t just stop at the initial training sessions. We provide ongoing support to ensure your dog’s progress continues even after the formal training ends. Our trainers will provide guidance and additional lessons if necessary, ensuring you and your dog maintain the positive results.
