We have been successfully feeding a 100% homemade raw diet to our dogs since 2018. Our dogs were completely transitioned to raw food since they were puppies from their breeder's kibble diets and have been strictly on raw and thriving ever since. If you are interested in getting started with feeding but don't know where to begin, have any reservations about it, don't know how to source your raw meats and/or how to transition from dry kibble to a raw diet... we can help you!

Cynthia has not failed to surprise me, she is an amazing trainer all around I discovered Cynthia through a buddy of mine, I took my Dogo (Molly) she is six months old currently to her puppy boarding school and I was nervous at first but every dollar was worth it before my Dogo was trained she had no manners. She jumped on the couches, jumped on people, bit people and listened to no commands hard to take anywhere and only went to the bathroom in her crate which was my fault for not having her on a schedule. when I got her back she was a completely different dog. She listened to every command had manners stopped jumping on people. She has yet to bite anybody And is so much calmer I can take her anywhere with me and she only goes to the bathroom where I tell her to, Very exciting stuff. I plan on continuing training with Cynthia. I 100% recommend anyone with an untrained dog to go to Cynthia!

When I first contacted High Level K9, my puppy was extremely reactive and a handful to manage. After completing the board and train program, he was like a completely different dog -- calm, obedient, and so much easier to handle. It was a huge relief and made a big difference.
​
Through ongoing training with High Level K9, my dog is now fully off-leash trained and actively working on protection training. It's been an incredible experience to give him the freedom to be off-leash while having complete confidence in his obedience.
​
High Level K9 truly cares about the long-term success of both the dog and the owner. Their training isn't just about quick results; they provide tools and support to maintain progress. I'm grateful for their high-level expertise and highly recommend them to anyone looking for real, lasting improvements in their dog's behavior.

1 million shout out to Cynthia who is helping me with my Dogo obedience work and her resource guarding me and her space at home.
I feel she really cares and she takes the time to make sure you understand what is expected of the handler since it is our responsibility to do a good job with our dog.
Thanks 1 million Cynthia.

I have been working with Cynthia for a couple months now. It is very apparent how knowledgeable she is when it comes to dog training. Her knowledge and passion is like nobody else in the area.
First, we had a consultation for a raw feeding where she thoroughly supplied all information I needed. It also came with a fool proof guide for what specifically and models to follow.
The in-person training sessions were extremely informative and effective. It was fun seeing my dog be so receptive to her methods. If you want to make sure you're not wasting time or money on a BS trainer, Cynthia is the right choice!

Cynthia helped me devise a meal plan for raw feeding. She also helped show me great techniques for recall.
She has always answered my questions and has become a true mentor for anything dog related. Highly recommend!

We took our 8 month old (at the time) dogo argentino to Cynthia, and we honestly can't say anything else other than amazing and knowledgeable. Thanks to her, our pup is now fully off leash trained which allows him to do more dog stuff without us worrying. I definitely recommend High Level K9 for your pup.

We just got our 5 months old German shepherd/cattle dog mix puppy, she has a great personality but she is full of energy and super distracted. Our main concern is obedience since we have a cat at home as well. We searched and met with different great trainers but none of them felt quiet right for 'Subi' until we met with Cynthia. She took our puppy for 2 weeks boarding training and the results were amazing. Upon picking her up, we had a training session where Cynthia showed us what she worked on and we loved it! The way Subi is more calm and listens to commands, the way she is more focused on us instead of her surroundings while still being a happy puppy is priceless! We will continue to get private sessions with Cynthia and recommend her to anyone in need.
