We offer expert dog training for dogs & Pups
of all ages and skill levels.
Many behavior issues are symptoms of deeper confusion, insecurity, or lack of structure. Our board-and-train programs address the root cause by rebuilding clarity, confidence, and accountability through daily training. By working with your dog consistently, we create real behavior change instead of temporary improvements. This is why our results last after your dog returns home.
Who Are We?
K9aholics –Nationally Recognized Dog Training.
K9Aholics is a trusted dog training brand known for delivering real, lasting results through structured board-and-train programs. With a strong reputation built on consistency, professionalism, and owner satisfaction, clients choose K9Aholics because their dogs receive focused, hands-on training—not shortcuts. Our programs are led by highly educated trainers who prioritize safety, clear communication, and balanced training methods. Backed by positive reviews and repeat clients, K9Aholics is chosen by owners who want reliable obedience and peace of mind knowing their dog is in expert hands.
Why Should You Use Our Board and Train?
Board and train is the most effective way to create real behavior change because your dog trains every day, not just once a week. Consistent structure, repetition, and clear expectations help dogs learn faster and retain their training. By removing everyday distractions, dogs can fully focus on learning the right behaviors. This leads to results that actually transfer back into your home.
The Advantage of Board & Train
Most training struggles happen because progress between lessons is inconsistent. Board and train eliminates that gap by providing daily, professional training in a structured environment. This level of immersion builds stronger habits, better obedience, and more reliable behavior. It’s the fastest way to see meaningful, lasting results.

Delivering Real Results That Last!
Your dog isn’t a template—and their training shouldn’t be either. We take the time to understand your dog’s personality, behavior, and specific challenges before creating a customized training plan. This allows us to focus on what your dog actually needs, not a one-size-fits-all program. The result is clearer communication, faster progress, and training that truly sticks.
You Love Your Dog, But You Need Help!
We Treat Your Dog Like Our Own
Our goal isn’t just obedience—it’s a better life for you and your dog. We help dogs learn how to listen, relax, and respond calmly in everyday situations. That means fewer struggles, more trust, and a stronger bond when training is complete.

Frequently Asked Questions
Sarah Angerman’s journey into dog training began from a place many owners relate to: fear, frustration, and uncertainty. After a frightening experience with dogs as a child, it wasn’t until rescuing a German Shepherd that she truly began to understand canine behavior, reactivity, and communication. That experience sparked a deep commitment to learning how dogs think, why behaviors happen, and how to create real change through clarity and structure.
Since then, Sarah has invested heavily in her education, training under some of the most respected professionals in the industry. Her background includes advanced seminars, decoy schools, sport-based training, and behavior-focused coursework, including NePoPo® Silver and Gold programs, PSA development, and classes through Fenzi Dog Sport Academy focused on engagement and reactivity. In 2025, she earned 3rd place at SPA Worlds, reflecting her dedication to precision, consistency, and high-level training standards.
Sarah’s approach is rooted in balanced training and clear communication—not guesswork or one-size-fits-all methods. She specializes in helping dogs and owners who feel overwhelmed, confused, or stuck, using structured, daily training to build confidence, reliability, and trust. Every dog in her care is trained with intention, professionalism, and respect, because Sarah understands firsthand how important it is to feel confident about who you trust with your dog.
Is it safe to leave my dog for board & train?
Yes. Your dog is cared for daily in a structured, supervised environment focused on safety, mental balance, and engagement — not a kennel warehouse.
Will my dog feel abandoned or stressed?
Most dogs actually relax once structure is introduced. Clear rules, consistent handling, and predictable routines reduce anxiety and build confidence quickly.
Why board & train instead of private lessons?
Because behavior change requires repetition. Board & train allows your dog to practice correct behaviors daily, dramatically speeding up progress compared to weekly sessions.
Who is actually training my dog?
Your dog is trained directly by Sarah Angerman (head trainer) or Kim Zimmer, not handed off to assistants or rotating staff.
What problems does board & train fix?
Leash pulling, jumping, poor recall, reactivity, impulse control issues, basic obedience gaps, and foundational puppy behaviors.
Will the training transfer when my dog comes home?
Yes — owner transition sessions are included so you learn how to maintain and reinforce your dog’s new skills in real-life situations.
