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,…
I cannot recommend Knallhart Kennels and Training Academy enough. We have two Giant Schnauzers, Suki, 11, and Revi, 5. Revi had become so domineering and pushy that Suki was afraid to go outside to potty and sometimes had accidents in the house. We were at our wits’ end. I was hesitant about sending Revi to…
My dog was part of the 4 week basic obedience training and he is a changed dog!! I can’t believe how much confidence and security he has gained, he is much more calm and happy. The structure Chelsey provided made his life infinitely better and our relationship with him is much stronger. We had tried a few different…
Chelsey and her team provide an exceptional training experience. We rescued our dog, Tigger, at 16 weeks of age with the goal of eventually having him serve as a therapy dog. Prior to working with Chelsey, we utilized a couple of different training programs with varying approaches. While Tigger was generally…
I sent my absolutely amazing (but psycho) german shepherd dog to Knallhart, I loved being included in training lessons multiple times throughout her stay and seeing her progress. She came home to me so well behaved. Her heel, reactivity levels, self regulation ability was all so incredible. I loved the set up of the…
Chelsea and her team were wonderful to work with. Our puppy did the 4 week program and the progress was amazing to see.
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!
Chelsey took a dog with food aggression, whom couldn't stop bullying other dogs off there food dishes, couldn't stop his nose to the ground run all over the yard for hours. My dog is now a therapy dog, whom is calm, well mannered, and holds commands. Reactivity is down and the food aggression is managed to what…
Appreciate the care she took of our dogs and the progress the dogs made. Great working to make sure my kids are part of the learning and training. Attentive to our specific concerns and areas of focus.
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…
Give your dog and yourself the best gift possible by booking with Knallhart right now!! Finding the right training program is tough and it took me months of research to find the right fit after moving to Iowa City. My basset hound Bahn had already been through a basic training program elsewhere and he’s always been…
