About the Trainer

Hi I'm Robin, the trainer and owner of K9 Academics with more than 40 years experience training service, working, and companion dogs professionally. 

​I have trained service dogs, therapy dogs, and competitive obedience dogs as well as having been a certified Search and Rescue Dog handler, Training Director and Lead Evaluator for SAR dogs here in Colorado. I've even assisted with the training of patrol dogs for law enforcement in other states. 

K9 Academics informally began in the summer of 1988 when I was asked to help numerous friends and several strangers train their dogs.
