K9   BELLATOR   SCHOOL

PROGRESS STARTS WITH SUPPORT AND GROWS WITH PURPOSE

K9 Bellator School came from years of figuring it out the hard way through late nights, muddy boots, too many mistakes, and the kind of dogs that don’t care about your perfectly written training plan.

It’s built on stubborn passion, lived experience, and the ongoing reality that we’re all still learning no matter how long we’ve been doing this.  

I’ve worked with high-drive dogs, operational teams, and dogs that didn’t tick any of the standard boxes. And through all of it, one thing’s stayed the same: we get better by doing the work not by pretending we’ve got it all together.  

So if you’re raising a dog with big potential, trying to build better habits, or just wondering if it’s normal to question everything you’re in the right place.  

Take a look around. Ask questions. And if you’re stuck message me. You don’t have to figure it all out alone. 

We're currently working hard to get our website up and running...

Our puppy Mies is teething right now. So are we. Please bear with us as we get everything working on the website. If you encounter any issues please email us with the details and we will get to the bottom of things. Just like Mies. When she digs holes in our backyard.
