If I could give another 5 stars, I would. Country Pet Inn/All Around K9 exceeded our expectations in every way. We brought our 7-month-old Golden Retriever in for basic obedience. He is our first big dog, and we were a little overwhelmed when he entered his “teen” phase.
Handing him off for three weeks was hard, however, we put our trust in Tarrin and Shan, and they made it well worth it. Tarrin was our puppies main handler, and we could not be more impressed. She put so much care into training our dog and he loved her. During the demonstration, we were blown away by how well he was trained. How quick he was to react to such simple queues was so amazing to see. You can tell how much a dogs success means to this business, and Shans lesson he did with us gave us so much insight to understanding our dog.

We greatly appreciate the time Shan took to make sure we learned every command, and he made it so easy by being judgement free. Being comfortable with our trainers helps so much in our part of our dogs obedience.

We cannot recommend Country Pet Inn enough. The price of this training was very reasonable considering how much time and effort was put in. Our dog loved the Kennels and being around other pups to play with. In the future, we will absolutely use them for boarding as well. We can’t thank Shan and Tarrin enough!

Country Pet Inn/All Around K9 dog training is fantastic. Shan, Master Dog trainer, is exceptional. He not only trains the dog, he trains the owner as well. My dog, Panzer, a Czech Shepherd, and I were clean slates. Upon completion of training with Shan, Panzer is an extraordinary, well-behaved, polite, and certified service dog, and I am a tuned-in dog owner. Shan is patient and knowledgeable, working with you and your dog in a relaxed and fun environment. I am grateful for going through the training with Shan. It was fun and educational

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible training provided by Shan Foster for my service dog, Bomber. From the moment we embarked on this journey, Shan exhibited not only a profound expertise in canine behavior and training but also a genuine passion for ensuring the success and well-being of both Bomber and myself. As Shan and I are both veterans and prior law enforcement officers, I found it easy to open up and discuss my challenges with him. He was incredibly empathetic and supportive, guiding me through overcoming some of my struggles and demonstrating how Bomber could assist me. Our shared military and police background facilitated our communication and understanding, as we've both encountered similar traumas. This common ground made the process significantly smoother and strengthened our connection, enabling us to support each other more effectively. Shan's approach to training was nothing short of exceptional. With patience, kindness, and a deep understanding of Bomber's needs as well as my own, he tailored the program to perfectly suit Bomber's temperament and the specific tasks required for his service dog role. What truly set Shan apart was his ability to establish a bond of trust and respect with Bomber and I, fostering a relationship built on mutual understanding and communication. Throughout the training process, Shan remained dedicated and committed, going above and beyond to address any challenges that arose and providing invaluable guidance and support every step of the way. His professionalism, reliability, and genuine care for Bomber's well-being were evident in every interaction, making the training experience not only effective but also enjoyable for both Bomber and myself. Thanks to Shan's expertise and guidance, Bomber has transformed into an exceptional service dog, capable of assisting me with tasks that enhance my independence and quality of life. Shan not only taught us tangible skills but also instilled in Bomber and me a remarkable sense of confidence and reliability. This has had a profound impact on my quality of life and independence. I wholeheartedly recommend Shan Foster to anyone in need of service dog training. His unwavering dedication, expertise, and passion for helping both dogs and their owners achieve their full potential make him an invaluable asset in the journey towards greater independence and companionship.
