Give your dog a safe, comfortable place to stay while you're away. At Precision K9 Academy we provide attentive care in a clean, structured environment where every dog is treated like family — whether you're gone for a weekend or an extended trip.
With over eight years of hands-on experience working with dogs, I founded Precision K9 Academy with one goal in mind: helping owners build clear communication, trust, and lasting relationships with their dogs. I've worked with dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities — from energetic puppies to stubborn adults — using proven training methods tailored to each individual dog.
Outside of training, I'm a dog owner myself. My family includes an 8-year-old German Shepherd, a Long-Haired Dachshund, and a young German Shorthaired Pointer, giving me firsthand experience with everything from high-drive working breeds to companion dogs. I understand the challenges of raising and living with dogs because I experience them every day.
"We were super nervous about leaving our Puppy with strangers for two weeks but this place was so professional and from the phone call you could tell they knew what they were doing, Clayton was our trainer and he was amazing with our Bernedoodle. When we got him back he knew all his commands and Clayton made sure to send pictures and videos everyday he was gone. He still checks in with us. We are 100% satisfied and it was well worth the money."
"Clayton trained my 10 month Golden Retriever. Ella spent 2 weeks with him and is now, such a rockstar! She does great with Heel, Place, Off, acknowledging me, focusing on me with distractions, and other basic commands. Clayton is a great dog trainer, but also very personable! I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants a well behaved dog!"
"I was extremely reluctant to hand over our puppies to a stranger but then we met Clayton. Our dogs were immediately comfortable with him. And the results of the training have been excellent. I'm very impressed. Thank you Clayton."
"Clayton is exceptional!!! I was skeptical about our pup learning anything but was amazed at the difference when we got him back home. I highly recommend Clayton to train any dog for sure!!!!!!"
"Diesel, our 9 mo old Doberman just finished a 2 week Board and Train with Clayton. I cannot say enough on the quality and love that went into Diesel's time with Clayton. Highly recommend Clayton to anyone who is seeking a training program. Clayton truly cares about his job, and most importantly your dogs success. Clayton gets 10 stars from us. Thank you Clayton!"
