MEET OUR MASCOT

"FANCY"

💛

About nine years ago, Fancy was brought to us under heartbreaking circumstances. She had been abandoned, abused, and neglected—carrying more fear than trust, more pain than hope. No one knew exactly what her future would look like, but we knew one thing immediately: she was home.

With time, patience, and love, Fancy began to heal. Slowly, she learned what safety felt like. What kindness looked like. What it meant to be cared for without condition. Day by day, she transformed—not just surviving, but truly thriving.

Today, Fancy is the soul of our facility. She is loved by every staff member and cherished as more than just a dog—she is family. Her gentle presence reminds us why we do what we do. Her story is proof that with compassion, structure, and commitment, even the most broken beginnings can lead to beautiful futures.

MEET THE DIRECTOR

Hi, I’m Ken, a Certified Master Dog Trainer with a lifelong passion for understanding, training, and advocating for dogs. From an early age, I was immersed in the world of military protection dog training—an experience that shaped my respect for canine intelligence, structure, and purpose.

For over 12 years, I’ve specialized in service dog training, rescue and rehabilitation, behavior modification, search and rescue, trick training, and foundational to advanced obedience, including puppies. My work is rooted in clear communication, consistency, and building confidence—both in dogs and their humans.

What drives me most is witnessing real transformation. I believe training should strengthen the bond between a dog and their family, not strain it. Every dog is unique, and I tailor my approach to each dog’s personality, breed, history, and needs. My goal is to help you truly understand your dog—how they think, communicate, and experience the world—so you can work together as a team.

I’m proudly supported by my two training partners, Isis, a Dutch Shepherd, and Lucifer, a Doberman Pinscher. Together, we demonstrate balance, structure, and real-world training in action, helping clients see what’s possible with the right guidance and commitment.
