K9 Professional Network · VIP

Chosen by a master trainer. Raised to be extraordinary.

Hand-selected puppies that live with their head trainer, and are vetted and trained by that one trainer until six months of age, then brought home to you ready for family life.

We work with executives, business owners and families who expect the best, and we understand the discretion, standards and results that come with it. Every puppy is in the hands of a team of highly experienced trainers.

Most families bring home a puppy and start from scratch. Our clients bring home a dog that has already been chosen, cared for and trained by a master.

The Head Trainer

A head trainer who lives with your puppy.

Your puppy is trained by a head trainer who lives with it. Training, rest, meals and vet care all happen under one roof, guided by one person with one set of high standards, from the day your puppy is chosen until it comes home to you.

  • Hand-selected by the same trainer who raises it.
  • Every vet visit handled by that trainer.
  • Trained to a high level before it ever meets your family.
