I having nothing but excellent things to say about the team at Knallhart. I first reached out looking for options to add a therapy dog to our family. Max was being fostered by knallhart so we set up a meet and greet to see how he would interact. Love at first sight! During max’s eight weeks of training he was able…
I genuinely cannot recommend Knallhart Training Academy enough. If you have a dog that you feel like you’ve tried everything with, especially a dog with reactivity or behavioral issues, I would absolutely recommend talking to Chelsey and her team before giving up hope. They accomplished things with Bumi that I…
Working with Chelsey and her team has been great for us and Remi! Their training program and was exactly when we needed! Remi also loves being down on the property for overnights.
We did an 8 week board and train after our dog became reactive towards other dogs. Chelsey was incredibly supportive during the process and he’s a completely changed dog. He can finally be around other dogs and his general obedience around the house is so much better. Highly recommend especially for difficult,…

Peony loves staying with Chelsey and company❣️ Chelsey gives her “friends” to play with and attention she receives gives me peace, knowing she is loved and cared for as if she was at home.
I really can't express how grateful I am for this facility! I was always soooo nervous about leaving my dog with a "kennel" because he's anxious, but he comes back from Knallhart happier and more well-behaved than I left him. He's actually been much better behaved since I started boarding him here.
Chelsey helped us and our pup become more prepared for life with a dog. Our pup knows commands and has far more discipline than when we started, and we feel far more prepared!
We reached out to Chelsey for help with our insecure and dog reactive dog, Penny. Chelsey responded quickly and instantly put me at ease. She was confident that Penny would be able to learn the skills she needed to learn life is not so scary. Penny went to Knallhart for the 8 week board and train program. We…
