K9dness Training offers behavioral training using techniques based on scientific research and methods that combine mental & physical stimulation. We can help with obedience, leash manners, reactivity, separation anxiety & a wide range of other issues as well. We focus on calm energy! We also offer additional services such as dog walking and pet sitting. The services we provide help our clients feel that their pets are getting the consistency needed to make them happy and healthy! We look at pets as our four legged family members and we strive to make both the owner and the pet content in any way possible. One of the first of its kind in the Baltimore area, K9dness gives you everything you could ever want for your pet, and then some.I have been an animal lover my entire life. I always had dogs growing up and have been rescuing and saving them, among other animals since I was a child. From a very young age I knew I wanted to be a vet and worked at most of the animal hospitals in town. I chose my college based on the veterinary medical program, and did my internship at the Baltimore Zoo. I realized in college I had a strong emotional attachment to my patients (the animals) so I decided to focus on the behavioral/training side of things. I am most fulfilled when I am able to help a dog and owner work together to conquer an issue. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing the bond grow between the owner and dog after they work together to strive and accomplish things. I am constantly working, studying, and observing dogs behaviors more closely, which in turn helps me grow as a trainer and only makes me more of an asset to my clients. ‚- Megan
