We feel so fortunate to have found Our Trainers and Ariana in our search for a family protection dog. First and foremost, with four children, we wanted a dog... read more that could be a part of our family. Living in California, I have to say that I didn't think getting a dog from Florida would be the most geographically desirable but Our Trainers not only made it work for us, he spent quite some time on the phone with me, educating me on the different types of dogs and trainings. He didn't try to sell me a dog but simply wanted to help me know what to look for. After speaking with several "protection dog" trainers/companies, I knew that Our Trainers had what we wanted and needed. He listened to what was important to us and matched us with the perfect dog. Communication is so important and Our Trainers has been extremely accessible; before, during and after our purchase. Not only did we buy a dog from Family Protection Dogs, we also received a bonus with their superior customer service. I am confident that if I have any questions or concerns, I could pick up the phone at any time and they will be there. Our Trainers's responsiveness is extraordinary and we couldn't be happier with our dog, Tasha, or their team. We would highly recommend Family Protection Dogs, and when the time is right, we will definitely be a returning customer. Thank you for matching us with the perfect fit!

We took our very energetic, goofy 7-month-old German Shorthaired Pointer to Family Protection Dogs for their 3-week board and train and couldn’t be happier with his results. Our trainer, Briana... read more was amazing with our boy and if I could leave her 10 stars I would! Jake came home well-mannered, very obedient but still his energetic, goofy self. I am so glad that we chose Family Protection Dogs!!!

I purchased a family protection dog from here! I was in the market and they really made me knowledgeable and matched me with a dog that fit my lifestyle. I... read more am amazed with my new dog! She is everything I’ve ever wanted and some. They made the tradition process so simple. I’m so happy and I recommend their family business to anyone.

I have a Cane Corso (Italian Mastiff if you don’t know the breed) that he is now 2yo. As you can realize is a large breed. Bjørn (my dog) start... read more getting out of control, teenager stage I called it lol. My dog was chewing everything from shoes to furniture whatever he wanted. Then he started to get more and more interested in dogs and people to the point he wouldn’t listen to me at all. At home I couldn’t have guest because he wouldn’t stay calm. He would jump on people and well imaging a 120 pounds (at that time) coming right on you lol. The fact that I didn’t have the extra time to work on my dog made it even more difficult. Then I found Family Protection Dogs and well my life changed, yes it did. I sent Bjørn for the obedience program and he went for his 21 days of training. I’m one of those crazy dog parents that protects and care my dog more than a normal person. So sending him away for 3 weeks was a hard decision. That’s when I met Arianna, we texted and talked for days and I did every single question I could possibly had. She answered every single one of them and made me feel better about giving them my dog. While Bjørn was at training with them I was updated everyday of his progress and how he was doing: eating, playing and having a good time. I have to say having constant communication with the trainers and following the progress on their Instagram made the situation pleasant and out of worry. Bjørn came back to me and they went through the new commands and trying with me to ensure I was going to follow training him. He’s back home and wow I got a new dog completely. Behaved as never did, listening to the commands in public and not paying attention to dogs and people. Then I realized I made the right decision. Now Bjørn hasn’t chew a single thing at home. He doesn’t jump on people and one of my favorites is the “place” command. He stays in his bed when I send him to so I have guests now and he doesn’t move from pace until I release him. Also they don’t just did the training they keep communication with me to check in Bjørn and how’s he doing, that’s really nice. Remember the magic is not just sending the dog for training. That’s just the one part while the second part is YOU. You gotta keep trining and practicing with your dog everyday to ensure he stays on point in his new behavior. I often go for the Saturday class now to practice with Bjørn and get extra help from Arianna when I’m not sure if I am doing something right or just for a feedback in my training with him. These people are amazing I couldn’t be more happy of their work. Really professional trainers I have nothing else to say but get your dog right and send it for training at Family Protection Dogs Family k-9. Arianna, girl you rock!! If any of you wants to send me message to get through my customer experience with them and show you how my dog behaves now, don’t hesitate to do it.

I had my English Labrador trained here! I’m so glad I did it was worth every dollar! I’ve never had such an obedient, well behaved animal that follows so many... read more different commands. My dog is also so good around kids which was very important for me! Highly recommend

We highly recommend Family Protection Dogs K9 obedience training. We sent our two (totally out of control) dogs for the three week training course and got back our... read more girls that listen, sit, lay down, stay in place, and are obedient. We are happy; we are no longer yelling at them and they are happy; they get praised for their great behavior. All around win win

Ah! Where can I even start, we are new to the area and have 4 rescue pups! 1 of them, Izzy has always been a wonderful dog for our little... read more ones and us however when we introduced her to our newest rescue she started acting out, would snatch food from the dinner table and would even pin the puppy down. And it only got worse. We couldn’t take her on walks, she would refuse to come to her name etc..We were recommended by a good friend to contact fine line family K-9 and I couldn’t be more grateful, they’ve not only helped our Izzy but they gave us tools to also continue with our other pups. We will absolutely be back with all our future rescues! Highly recommended

I took my dog to 2 trainers with not so awesome results. They were so easy to deal with. Quality and compassion from them with exceptional business.

Our 2.5 year old 110 lbs German Shepherd/American Bulldog Jack had a mind of his own before going to Fineline. He would not listen to us and it took a... read more handful of treats for him to make eye contact. We hired trainers that would not work with him because of his dominance aggression and size. The sight of another dog made his eyes glass over like a cage fighter on crack and even turn on us and bite the leash. Our Trainers and Todd took action with our boy and gave him the structure and socialization to other dogs that essentially will save his life in the long run. Jack is now attentive, confident, and desensitized to other dogs. I recommend this company to anyone with dogs ranging from new puppies to stubborn mules from the shelter like Jack. Thank you again Our Trainers and Todd!

I cannot express my gratitude enough to Family Protection Dogs K-9... I’ve had Layla for a month,and she is amazing! Everywhere we go people comment on how well behaved she... read more is,how alert,and calm.. She never fails to impress me just how solid she is..when a homeless man began to approach us in the park,Layla immediately went between us and quietly kept staring at him with an intensity that is impossible to ignore..He looked at her,turned on his heal and left us alone..And I didn’t have to say a word....yet she loves people,kids,and other dogs..Layla just knows when to “turn it up”... thanks again Our Trainers,Ariana,and Kennedy..

THE best place to get your dog trained. Got my big boy Pluto into their classes at 1year old and his behavior around strangers/childen has massively improved

I bought Joker. He's an awesome dog and a perfect fit for our family and small farm. He's already shown his worth with a particularly roudy rooster that attacks my... read more kids. I'm divorced and live alone on a large farm in not-the-best part of town. We feel much safer at night knowing Joker is there with us. Family Protection Dogs knew exactly what we needed and we're so happy Joker's a part of our family. Can't wait to save up for another one!! 🙂

I am SO pleased I was referred to the fine line family to train my dog!! I could not have asked for better results with my pup!! The entire staff... read more was SO friendly and professional! I will be recommending them to everyone for training and my fur baby will have a family to board him for any future vacations 🙂 Juice man says thank you for taking care of him and I thank you all for giving me such a well behaved dog!!

I just wanted to share with every one the great experience we had with our trainer Shannon Potter. We are truly thankful for her Help with our dog Gunner. We... read more now can walk him on leash ,take him for rides in the truck. He sits when told to, goes to place, and stays until released & lays on command. Shannon addressed all our concerns. Gunner looked forward to her arrival for each session. We practice with him every day to keep it fresh in his mind.Thanks again Shannon & Fine line Family K9.

Look for me my dog literally come with me to work, greets my clients and is my literal child. so for me where i chose to bring him was akin... read more to choosing a school for my kid. After putting up with me asking eight hundred and one questions about what will be happening, how it will happen, and how hes taken care of i knew this was the place for turtle. I didnt think i could love him more than i did but since training hes an even better boy haha. Thank you guys for your dedicated work!

If I could give them 10 stars I would. They have helped me so much with my 5 month mastiff! She came home amazing. Even when I had concern with... read more my 4 year old mastiff they took them both for a bit and they came back best friends, even did a house visit to show me how to properly use the e collar on them. If I ever in my right mind get another puppy, I would send them to Fine line with no questions asked. Highly recommend. 10/10

It is with great confidence, that I am writing a review for Family Protection Dogs. Our Trainer Shannon took on the task of not just training one of our puppies... read more but both at the same time and they were a week apart in age. She came to our home several days a week and took on my Golden Doodles Finn and Annie. Every time, she knocked on the door they were so excited to see her and learn more from her, week after week. Training takes time, effort on all our parts, it is not just the Trainers job it is the what we continue to do with what she has taught us and the doggies. We saw weekly success with our Fur-babies during and after. By the time they graduated we were getting compliments weekly on Shannon, their behavior and how much they had learned. To this day, I just recently had a neighbor ask if they could have her Training information "the neighbor said Finn and Annie are so well behaved" and as their parents it just makes you smile and proudly pass on her information for the next family. Shannon we are always so grateful for your time, lessons and YOU are always like family to us. Come see us soon!

I took my 2 year old dog Cider to Family Protection Dogs and I could not be happier with the results! I have way more control over my dog than... read more I have ever had before. She is still her same goofy self, but obedient. I was starting to feel so stressed out and hopeless when it came to training my dog and having her listen to me and Family Protection Dogs solved all of those problems. They also make sure your fur baby is having a great time while they are away! Cider was always jumping in the pool and playing with the other dogs! I highly recommend Family Protection Dogs!

I got my labradoodle from fine line last summer. Their facility is extremely well kept, properly managed and they take exceptional care of their dogs. I will never go to... read more another place again to purchase or train my pups. Highly recommend

If you are looking for the best of the best...you will find them at Family Protection Dogs!! We did all the research we could and felt we found the right... read more place. We absolutely did! Our Trainers and Ariana know their dogs and how to train them. They also get to know their clients and their needs. As a client you will most likely become a friend as well. Whether it’s looking for a trained dog, on any level, to training your own pet, to finding the puppy you have been dreaming about. The the first and last place to check is Family Family Protection Dogs K9. They are the best of the best in my opinion! Thank you Our Trainers and Ariana!

The people who run Family Protection Dogs are amazing at what they do, the dogs are everything you would want in a family pet combined with all the protection you'll... read more need for your loved ones. Not only are they great at their jobs they're really funny down to earth people, they make you feel good about giving them your business!

Our family is so lucky to have found Shannon, Ariana, and everyone at Family Protection Dogs. They’re quite literally lifesavers! From the moment we met them and visited their facility,... read more we were so impressed. We just brought home an incredible service dog, and they’ve been there every step of the way. We’re so impressed with the service dog they trained for us that we sent a new puppy to board and train. They are responsive, caring, reliable, and just amazing at what they do—everything you could ever want in a trainer. Shannon has the patience of a saint and she and everyone at Family Protection Dogs are now FURever family. 💙🐾

Our Trainersn and Cassie and I’m sure many others that were involved in the process did a wonderful job with my Rottweiler Brutus. My mind was blown at how fast... read more he picked up on what they taught him. They will be getting Brutus back when it’s time for more training as well as my German shepherd kaiser when it’s time for him to get more training as well. I wish I could give this company and these people more than five stars. Thank you for everything you have done!!!!

If I could give a higher review than 5 stars I would! I sent my high spirited silver lab puppy "Blue" there at 3 1/2 months for Our Trainers to... read more train to leash walk, not bite, crate train, stay in place and be well behaved and socialized so I could take him out and also to work with me. It was a tall order. I trusted Our Trainers, respected the space & time he needed to train Blue and when I picked him up Blue had been transformed by Our Trainers into my dream companion dog! I can't say enough about how well Blue was treated there, making friends with the other dogs in training, and how giving him over to Family Protection Dogs has turned Blue into a wonderful dog and my new best friend. I was once worried that Blue was just too much for me and now he's my shadow and so awesome to be with. Our Trainers truly does perform dog miracles! Thank you Our Trainers! And thank you Ariana for so nicely posting Instagram photos so I could see how Blue was doing. And I appreciate the great training you gave ME when I picked up Blue! Family Protection Dogs is the best!!

My dog which just turn a year this week came from Family Protection Dogs . He has been a super dog very smart and we have been going to... read more training with him at Fineline family K-9 for about the last six months he’s learning very well with their techniques, and can’t wait to get there every time we head that way for classes .The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable and the facility is clean and very well taken care of.I would definitely give them a five star rating. An I am picky . Thanks for everything Bill W.

Our Trainers sold me my 2-year old protection dog. He's the most amazing animal I've ever been around! He and I bonded within the first 24 hours of ownership, and... read more now he follows me everywhere I go and responds extremely well to the commands Our Trainers taught me. I couldn't be happier with my dog, and would immediately recommend to anyone looking for a supremely trained family protection dog to contact Family Protection Dogs Family before contacting anyone else.

I am disabled and had recently gotten a golden retriever puppy’s dog always wanted a service dog to assist me in my daily routine but never know how to go... read more about doing it, then i came across Ariana and Our Trainers threw a mutual friend. I knew I had a smart puppy but what they did with her in the short amount of time they spent with her is nothing short of AMAZING!!!!! A+++++++++++ I would recommend them to anyone looking at getting a service dog or protection dog or have your personal dog trained. I have personally seen there operation and it is top notch!!

First and most important, this is hands-down the absolute best place to bring your dog. They are family owned and operated so that right there tells you they’re about the... read more dog learning and being part of the family. When I brought Diesel I was very concerned that he would not be able to learn obedience (he was wild and didn’t listen)even though he was 4 months old, they assured me that it can all be corrected.. and I will tell you it has only been a 2 days since I picked him up and WOW and from the first 5 minutes of being there and them showing me how to command my dog he is definitely 100% improved. If you or someone you know needs any type of training for ur dog don’t waste your time on going anywhere else. You will not be disappointed with the results. This is and will always be the top for dog training. To the family at Family Protection Dogs K-9, Diesel and I thank you so much

We took our family dog Zaylah to Family Protection Dogs for their board and train obedience program. Before we brought her there she was always reacting to other dogs, pulling... read more on the leash, and wouldn't come when called. Now she is highly improved! She walks perfectly on and off leash, comes when called and is more confident when she see's other dogs. THANK YOU FINE LINE FAMILY K-9!!!

I was searching for your new forever partner to explore the mountains of Washington with myself and my horse as we go alone often. I also wanted a dog that... read more would protect my family and I, but still be a great family dog and enjoy all of our traveling and camping with friends & family. I also suffer from extreme anxiety and one of the dog that would be able to go with me everywhere and behave. I wanted one that had already been started and has a good mind, night not an adult. Then they showed me Atlas... It was love at first sight! Long story short, I got on a plane from Washington and landed in Florida, got a little bit of rest and the next morning he was brought to me. About an hour later I was on an airplane, flying with him in cabin, headed home. He behaved amazingly through the airport, sit stay while I went through the metal detector and then recalled him through the metal detector himself, and slept in the cabin like a baby. Since being home we are inseparable. He goes absolutely everywhere with me and I literally could not be happier. Ariana and Our Trainers have been there for any questions (and trust me, I have A LOT) LOL that I might have and I would honestly never buy a dog or have one trained from any other company ever again. With all of this said, my atlas is only 8 months old! Talk about professionalism and quality training at its best.

I can’t tell you what a relief it’s been to have my dog fully trained by Family Protection Dogs. Before she was trained, it was so stressful to take her... read more anywhere with me. She would bark at other dogs and pull on the leash, giving me rope burns! Now I can bring her everywhere and she gets compliments every time I go out! I’m so impressed with Family Protection Dogs!! 10/10 recommend to everyone with a dog!!

My wife and I took our 6 month old American Bully King, we did a lot of research on training reached out to many private trainers and training facilities but... read more no one gave us the piece of mind and straight up answers like Family Protection Dogs. They were very honest with me on how the training would go and what it would consist of. We weren't expecting miracles but they equipped my dog with the understanding of what we were needing and expecting from him and gave us the proper tools to continue to polish and work on what he was taught. When we picked him up and how he has been responding at home has exceeded all of our expectations. Thank Family Protection Dogs so much for helping us with our fury baby, I would definitely use you again for my future dogs and we would also recommend you every chance we get. Also to the young man (Austin) that we dropped and picked up King from he is phenomenal, attentive, respectfu, professional and so informative and most of all he was great with King. You helped ease the process for me and my family of releasing our baby over to people who we did not know - thank you!!! You should an example to your entire team.

If you’re in need of dog training this is the place to go!! They take the time to listen to what you want and they make it happen. Our Trainersn... read more and Ariana at fine line family k9 worked wonders with my dog. It’s a night and day difference. I will forever recommend this company. They made sure I got updates of my dog the entire time he was being trained!

Night and day! We had just gotten a puppy, a mini goldendoodle named Franklin. After 2 months we decided to have him trained and the difference is night and day.... read more He listens so much better, follows commands we couldn't reach him on our own and even gets into the car and onto the couch whereas before we had to pick him up. FineLine was very responsive and professional. They answered quick and sent us pictures regularly. Would highly recommend anyone getting this training for their dogs. It will pay dividends for the life of the pet!

Me and my boyfriend bought a sweet, healthy, and loving puppy for a very reasonable price. They provided us with accurate pet records and answered every question and concern we... read more had. We recommend this breeder to anyone who is ready to bring a loving dog into their home.

Thanks Our Trainers, I can finally enjoy walking my dog!
